It being 1st January I put up the new LCFC calendar tgis morning and Edouard is on the picture for March 2025.

 

Seems a bit optimistic.

Or pessimistic??

 

Rooney is the January one for Plymouth, which I found quite amusing! 

[Paninistickers]

Another example of fans often knowing more about players than professional scouts and coaches. 

 

Just gonna look at page 1/2 though to put a black mark against anyone who rated this!

On paper it was potentially a good signing. He was electric at Celtic, and with the France under 21’s….. it was a gamble on a player who’s lost his way, and it hasn’t worked out. So I imagine you’re suggesting the fans signed him?

I'd seen him a couple of times for Palace last season and he was hideously bad. 

 

Also, like in pure business terms, the largest of red flags is that the lad weren't good enough to make Palace's bench ( and they were happy to gift him to a relegation rival), why was he ever gonna be if any use to us? 

 

He's a joke and was always gonna be so..so much so even Cooper wouldn't use him.

Disastrous signing really.

[SK3Blue]

My comment on page 5 said his decision making was poor. 
Id love to make a decision for him, get gone!!

The key bit for me. They were willing to let both Ayew AND Edouard go to us. That suggests at least one of them is a complete dud. 

 

It'd be like us letting Daka go to Ipswich. 

[The Guvnor]

We've all seen countless players in our team over the years and thought why?

And I have to say this signing was also an OddsOne.

[Dahnsouff]

He was cover in case of emergency, not sure why anyone is losing their minds - it was dumb in hindsight as we ended up not needing him, would have been a different story if Vardy has become unavailable.

Daka is back, get him gone.

[cruzFOX]

This should be an easy one for the recruiting dept as they take on the hard task of bringing new players in: send edourde back to palace asap with a ‘thanx for nothing’ note. He’s been a waste of a valuable spot.

[coolhandfox]

Ww had one fit striker and missed out on permanent signings.

 

It was a case of get a body.

 

Move on.

[splinterdream]

I guess when you make a desperate signing like this, you just hope there's a chance the player would relish a fresh start, otherwise it's just a huge waste of money, a third striker wasn't a necessity 

[Dan]

Fell short of very low expectations.

Now you've got my hopes up that you may be ITK!

What did Leicester expect when your rummaging round the garbage bins of Palace, Fulham and Wolves for fish bones

Roll on January when we sign Jason Puncheon and Christian Benteke. 

Edouard out, Benteke in anyone

Playing in Scotland against St Mirren and Inverness. Gary Hooper was like prime Pele in that shower of shite league

Complete dog muck, get him gone

[volpeazzurro]

Can they just send him back in January? Are there likely to be large financial implications?

Judging players on their performances in the Scottish League is always a gamble. The league overall is the equivalent of League 2 with Celtic being League 1. Buying a player on the basis that they look great for Celtic is just foolish.

Quick, someone send this comment to Chris Sutton!

[sdb]

I didn't expect much but didn't see him being such a failure. He must've been woeful in training to feature so rarely.

How many minutes did he get?
