He wasn't that young. It was pretty terrible behaviour...more than being a young scamp. He probably needs to address it in a grown up way. Maybe he already has? Any other incidents since 2017?

He sounds a right dick. I'm never one to use age as an excuse. Would anyone here have thought it okay to do that at 19? He's the one transfer I have concerns over. I can't recall the last time I heard anything complimentary about him from those who watched him at Celtic. The only reassurance is that we have been linked with him a long time so have presumably weighed up all the pros and cons. And whilst the fee was relatively low, I still don't consider it any less of a gamble. Regardless of the general opinion of Benteke, he still got 11 goals last year, and has proven himself more effective than Batshuayi and others for a number of years, despite being largely useless. If Edouard comes in and can only manage a handful of goals, then we have paid £15m to be worse off up front. Adam Armstrong seemed the better option to me. Really hoping and willing to be proven wrong about him, but that's just how I feel. It is my favourite Stone Roses song though.

Presume all transfers are overseen by lawyers/solicitors and club representatives who look into these things. He will be instructed to sort this out in no uncertain terms. I actually wouldn't be surprised if it could already be sorted.

Horrible story but this happened in France and not in Croydon or Glasgow. Hopefully Steve will have a chat with him and Patrick and make a wages deduction (if true) to pay the victim.
Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course). |

Really hoping and willing to be proven wrong about him, but that's just how I feel. It is my favourite Stone Roses song though. Got to disagree with that. Yes, Edouard has had a bad 18 months but the guy does have quick feet and knows where the goal is. If anyone can get him firing it will be PV. The options we've got now and coming back from injury could mean a good supply chain. I think between the two Adam Armstrong is not the better option. He had one very good season in the Championship and Blackburn got top whack for him given his contract situation. I'm the most excited about this team that I've been about a Palace side for ages. Just hope it's not misplaced optimism!
