Good job Matty James is coming back.

Two Threads For a Legend! Deserves It

[UniFox21]

9mill, 3mill loss on what we bought him for, but for his age thats a good amount to recoup for him.

[lgfualol]

Good luck to him. Seemed a nice bloke. 

[Wolfox]

I liked him…. Disappointed to see him go

 

A good move for him…. I think there’s something quite admirable about not wanting to pick up a pay cheque whilst mainly sitting on the bench…

[Koke]

£9m is more than what I expected for him.

[MC Prussian]

Transfer fee in the region between 10 and 15 million Euro (£9m to £13.5m).

 

Writing was on the wall a few weeks earlier, there were previous reports linking him with a return to Spain.

Shame it didn't work out for him here, and he's another in an ever-growing list of foreign midfielders that didn't make the cut at LCFC, for whatever reason.

 

Should form a great midfield duo alongside Cazorla.

Wish him well.

[urban.spaceman]

€10m according to this chap. That's a very decent return for what we paid. 

 

 

[Osavo]

Good luck, Vicente. Not a bad player by any means, but always a little slow to play in the Prem imo. A poor bit of business in hindsight given his age, but we've done well to recoup the majority of what we paid. 

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Good luck to him, I liked him and he should of been given a longer run in the side.

[ozvaldo]

What did we pay for him?

[lcfcell]

Anyone know what he was on here? 

[Dr Marco]

Good luck Vicente!

Blood doping until it became frowned upon? 

[Babylon]

We should have played him last night to drum up a better offer....

[Woodsey1727]

All the best to him. Had a decent 1st year here when he wasn't injured. 

[smitha]

Sorry to see him go, thought he was ok good in both boxes and on his day could be a classy performer, would have preferred some of the other midfielders moved on first. Guess we are going to be stuck with them until the summer cannot see anyone paying the wages that they are on here. Thank you Vicente and good luck.

[Babylon]

How have we made nearly all our money back on Musa and Iborra?

 

 

[Fox92]

Best of luck to him. I liked him. Shame about his age but I think he offers more than James.

[ThurnbyLodgeFox]

How he (and Silva) fell behind Matty James is astonishing but not surprising. Good luck in Spain

Do we know how much we got for him?

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Shame - I thought he looked good whenever he played. Best of luck to him, seems a genuinely decent bloke.

[On our way...]

No place for him in a Puel midfield. Far too creative.

Just need to get rid of Silva now and his asset stripping will be almost complete. No Plan B CF and no midfield creativity. Schmeichel and Ward to go next to accommodate Ben Hamers return

Pretty much made our money back. With Silva being pretty much gone we desperately need a new CM now, can't go to May with Ndidi and Mendy as the only senior CMs at the club
