Do you want a fight? You shall not beat me in a fight because I am a great fighter. If you face me in a fight you will surely lose the fight because I will win the fight using my superior fighting skills.

He's clearly a complete ****ing bully.
 
Firmino, Lallana, Lovren, Gomez, Coutinho (who they later sold for €100m+), clearly all terrible signings
I’ll give you Firmino, Lallana, Gomez and Coutinho though.

And raise you Borini, Assaidi, Sahin, Yesil, Alberto, Aspas, Mignolet, Cissokho, Ilori, Lambert, Stewart, Markovic, Manquillo, Moreno, Balotelli and Benteke.

IF you are going to create a list can you please have the decency to put it into alphabetical order?

Christ on a bike.

Now I believe we are looking at a CB who has been playing in the third tier of Italy.
 
Benteke should have been a quality signing for them and even Palace. Think most teams would have been chuffed if they got the benteke who played for Villa.

One of the more bizarre collapses of a player I can remember. He was an absolute nightmare to defend at Villa.

I'm a ****ing idiot, but I definitely thought he was the better of the Belgian strikers.

In fact, he's absolutely hopeless at Palace...looks like he's won a contest.
 
And Balotelli was a punt. I dont blame him for that. It could have paid off had he not have been even more mad than at first thought.
 
IIRC he kicked a boot in frustration he wasn't specifically aiming for Beckham, and he himself would admit that wasn't professional and shouldn't have happened.
Would he? Even now I think he would be more likely to suggest that the nancy boy had plenty of time to get out of the way.
