To be fair 2 of his 4 goals were against, er us.

And the other 2 (I think) were against Palace. That kind of evens things out!!

He cost 4 times as much as Gross and has scored the same number of goals. We also signed Gross before Hudds signed the french striker, hard to believe as Hudds do all their business before us and get much better players!!

If we were going to sign a Championship midfielder I'd walk past a dozen Alex Pritchards to sign one Tom Cairney

I wouldnt bother with either and would look at Joao Texiera who is on loan from Porto to SC Braga. I think that he would be as good but a lot cheaper and would fit into the role to offer competition to Gross.

Giving Donald Trump a run for his money in becoming beyond a parody of himself.

Perhaps we shouldn't be so jaundiced as to take that view about any player.
Firstly, CH (together with the recruitment team) are those to recognise potential and suitability of ANY player irrespective of anything which has gone before. FFS, if the club had listened to NSC, we would probably never ever have re-signed Glenn Murray (or any other of several we have re-signed)
Bear in mind Pritchard was quite possibly advised by his agent at the time and 'possibly' regrets the way things turned out for him. He is more than a decent player and we should stop before ever saying 'never'
I am not, by the way, suggesting that we should try to sign him but !!

I'd love to see him join Huddersfield, that would really fire up the Amex crowd when we play them later in the season.

From a rebound off the crossbar, onto the back of Ryan's shoulder.

That won't happen. I noticed against Bournemouth that Ryan has obviously been training for rebounds off the woodwork - as when it came off him it merely went behind for a corner. Maybe that's why we swapped Stockdale for him? That and we obviously couldn't afford all the pies Stocky has put away this year....

£5m bid rejected apparently

Brighton factually.....
£5m?

Bit of a pisstake bid when you see the sort of money floating around up here, can see why Norwich rejected it.

Testing Norwich, as the Premier League fund dries up at the end of the season, and financially they are not in a good place.

I would actually like to see us try a cheeky bid of maybe £8 million
