He loves this club. See his reaction at final whistle.

In the last few weeks of last season, Cantor said it was known that Pascal wished to return home (this summer).

Our best signing of the summer, it was a great day when the news was confirmed.

Becoming an Albion God. [Pinched from The Argus]

Then you’ll post just one further follow up question :lolol:

That was also me circa last February/March I think. Not only had he got slower, but the goals and assists had completely dried up. Then he completely turned that around with stunning performances in our glorious run in, the renaissance man.

I didn't rate his defensive play in many games, hamstrung I think by a lack of pace when in retreat. Redmond on repeat, McNeil, Fraser, all had his number. Although he did play his part in some of the famous CH wins. The club must've eventually come to a similar conclusion, Veltman's a huge...

After an horrendous couple of drives to the NW to see the Albion about 5 years ago …. one was a detour from the M6 Toll to Lichfield, generally one slow moving car park in Staffs/Cheshire, we’ve taken the train ever since. Fantastically short 2 hours from Euston to Manchester or Liverpool. A...

By road?

I was elated with that, it got the summer break off to a great start, it felt like a new (proven player) signing, after he ditched alleged plans to return home. He finished last season magnificently.

What’s on the whiteboard …. don’t worry about Fred and McThuggery.

Plus that old adage, his football brain puts in the right spot. I remember some analysis a few years ago on the radio or tv … the best players often stay still, when all the lemming are running round like headless chickens and hey presto, the ball finds them.

I’m not criticising PG at all, he kept us in the EPL with his goals and assists. Instead, praising Potter/Gross for making him so influential in open play for entire games.

When paired with Montoya, it was sometimes our achilles heel (Bmuff, Stains, Cardiff etc) in those early seasons. Lamptey briefly, then Veltman sewed the right flank up, allowing Gross insurance to play. Imho.

2017/18 and 2018/19 I thought of him as a specialist set play and crossing player, scoring and making goals for the likes of Muzza. To be subbed late in second halves. Somehow (Potter) at age 30 now 31, he’s morphed into someone with decent mobility and he pops up everywhere, plus he can keep...

With inevitable injuries or players being rested when in a loss of form, it usually seems to all fall into place.

He adds experience and know-how.

Money.

:lolol: that’ll wind-up the tiny band of Solly haters.
