And is he one of the MANY players that you slagged off when he played for us. The only reason you're sticking up for him now is because you absolutely loath everything Stoke City and he's now gone. Which in your tint pathetic mind is another 'win'. Yes I thought he started slowly. It’s called being balanced, you should try it. I’m not sticking up for him. I’ve said he’s average and said I’d get rid 😂 But this will be a third season he’s been at a better level than us. People need to separate him being a twat and his talent. And I don’t get you? I think we’ve done a decent deal. What exactly am I having a go at Stoke wise here?? He's not done absolutely anything anywhere since signing for Stoke, people are taking a punt on him as a cheap option after one statistically good euros which happened to be the season he joined us, done the square root of zilch since

I wonder what the fee will be if Watford decide to sign him permanently?

He hasn't made much of an impression anywhere I think.

Always felt at Stoke he lacked that bit extra and an end product

He started to play well for us and has clearly done something on loan to make clubs who play at a better level than us want him. Like I said, take your hate out of it.

Like I said, take your hate out of it. Yet neither club wanted to take him permanently? That’s precisely the point that keeps getting missed. Bayern is now splitting hairs between “playing” and “performing “. If you “perform” you are picked to “play”. A grand total of 34 “appearances “ over 3 years hardly represents playing( especially when 10 of those 34 are as a substitute), but more importantly nobody has made any attempt to keep him.

I’m not splitting hairs. 3 clubs who play at a better level than us have signed him. He’s clearly not shit. He’s playing at a higher level. People just need to accept that and move on. Just because he’s a twat (and he is) doesn’t mean he’s a bad footballer.

Quite clearly given that 3 clubs at a higher level have had him now!

The Turkish league is 8 places below the championship in the rankings so you cant count that one really, yes he had 2 games in the Europa League qualifiers against Rangers and Hadjuk split and he played 114 mins in those 2 games

Looks to be doing well for Watford in preseason and looks certain to start their opener against Villa next weekend. Will be interesting to see how he gets on in the prem, hopefully does really well and we can get close to the £6 million we paid for him

He played yesterday for Nigeria against Liberia (2-0).
He got to feature for a whole 2 minutes after he can on as a substitute for Joe Aribo! He’s not getting in ahead of that high flying Aribo who made the high profile free transfer from charlton to Rangers.
On paper - he ain’t been playing too hotly for Watford either!
They ain’t gonna buy him are they? - he’s contracted with us til 2024.

He's a good player. Not sure in what capacity he's over-rated or by who but getting decent praise at Watford. Fingers Xed a permanent move perhaps if he keeps impressing.
