The hysterically annoying and totally unfounded, but traditional, Summer 2024 rumours thread.

We have possibly the greatest goalscorer in premier league history in our side.

Correct. He won't play every game though. His replacements are Daka and a bloke who can't buy a minute of football.

Like I say, we need a goalscorer.

 

[popillius]

Therefore we need to sign ****s

I await their call.

Snotters buying Nketiah for £30m

Which we would have had without spending that on Golding and Okoli who aren’t playing, and Ayew who isn’t really a footballer

Pity

 

[Micky]

Nketiah is bang average. They've been absolutely had there.

No better than Ayew.

below the line comments from Palace fans on the Athletic for the Ayew story suggest a lot of love for him, plenty bemoaning them losing an experienced and committed player.

And from what Cooper has said he clearly knows he’s not the answer on his own, and others are planned.

When he was first announced I was definitely in the “meh” camp. But although he’s not going to keep us up single-handedly he seems a decent squad signing.

Still puzzling how the maths all works out for PSR, but just hoping there is a plan.

And how long have we been saying we need a different kind of striker on the bench.

Yeah but one who can score would be better.

Like a young Messi...

That is absolutely ridiculous.

 

[fitz]

Nketiah is absolutely shite.

 

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

Well if he can do one or two of those every week, we will be fine.
Closest thing I have seen to a Vardy/Mahrez clone.

You mean like when you order a young Vardy/Mahrez on Wish.com?

 

[Blue Maniac]

Like a young Messi...

That is beautiful.

 

[SilverFox]

That is beautiful.

It’s pretty good, but “best goal ever in the premier league” is a bit much.

Le Tiss?

 

[camberwell fox]

Le Tiss?

Bless you.

 

[SilverFox]

Le Tiss?

It’s all subjective.

 

[pork pie fox]

Le Tiss?

Do your own research.

 

[Flabby Owl]

This is hilarious. Not in its accuracy or anything like that, but in that it exists...
