Didn't show enough at Stoke to keep him. Very pleased, and surprised, when we sold him to Newcastle. Great bit of business. Newcastle fans were of the same opinion as most of us... not good enough for the Premier League. As far as I know, he wasn't a selfish knobhead prima donna when he was at Stoke so no reason to dislike him. Good to see he has gone on to bigger things. I wish him well.

And neither of them particularly Choupo or Turtle neck as Crouchie called him gave a shit or raised sweat for Stoke in our fight for survival. Pair of tossers!

Just scored 2 goals in 2 minutes on his Spain debut True but he came up against the worst leftback performance I've ever seen. The LB came on and after 4 minutes they'd conceded 2. Both his fault.

Felt he was a little underused but as some have said didn’t seem to take to the rigours of English football. Chuffed he’s doing well though, seemed a nice enough chap and good professional

I think Choupo gets bad press, did what he does while he was at Stoke and can’t really remember him downing tools as such There was the odd moment but overall he was ok. The issue with him is that he wasn’t Arnie and we needed him to be. He’d have been great to have when we had Arnie, Bojan and Shaq. Ideal squad option to give any one of them a rest and do a decent job.

He’d actually be just the type of striker we need now.

God I hate that crouch is held in such high esteem in that relegation season, He wasn’t exactly good or put his neck out to try and address any of the issues. For what it’s worth, same goes for Johnson, Shawcross (to an extent), Butland, Allen.

Good player. Always felt he was owed more opportunities than he was given. I seem to remember he lacked pace and it held him back.
Glad it has come good for him.

Totally agree with you...I hate it when these ex players who were meant to be the experienced leaders in our dressing announce in some interview how toxic our dressing room was....why didnt they sort it out..bang a few heads together..instead of sitting like lambs in the corner.... Would never of happened with Walters, whelan, Huth, ab faye still in the squad.

Would never of happened with Walters, whelan, Huth, ab faye still in the squad. Not even sort it out, let it get to a place where it was deemed toxic in the first place. But no, they were as happy as Berahino, wimmer and Jese happy to collect their pay check with no regard for what was going on around them. Knowing that when it was all said and done they could get a move or a new deal (Butland and Allen).

Harsh on Joselu, didn't we sell him before the relegation season? Are you thinking of Jese? Fair point, Jese, Choupo...Butland, Adam, not that they weren't trying but both made huge mistakes that contributed to our demise however they appeared to care whereas Jese & Choupo didn't raise much of a finger and couldn't get away quick enough.

True or false it pissed me off You say true or false though? Was it a rumour? Did you witness him saying it? What exactly did he say? Perhaps something like Stoke fans were great and loud but Newcastle fans sound even louder? Let's make stuff up shall we?

Embarrassing post. Embarrasing? Wow! Calm down Pugs....I actually said that Charlie Adam along with Butland, made monumental mistakes that took us down. Rightly or wrongly I believed that Adam gave a shit (not much of one but a shit) whilst I don't think Choupo gave a shit full stop. Not much in it has to be said and Adam was woeful. You can tell it's International break! Moving on..

I remember him scoring vs Everton and for hugging the referee, but that's all. He came and went but didn't conquer.
It's remarkable that despite starting at the very top for Real Madrid (one game, one goal), he never again played for a top club. Still got in the national side, so kudos to him.

I think Choupo gets bad press, did what he does while he was at Stoke and can’t really remember him downing tools as such He was seen as lazy and cowardly, but got injured equalising after coming on as a sub v Everton if I recall rightly and then missed the last few games. He wasn't why we got relegated. Jese was a total headfuck signing.
