Gabby doesn't score many, so he'd be a poor signing, I think we're being blinded because he tends to play well against us.

I don't like or dislike him personally, but I've always wished he was in an Albion shirt.

Regarding Gabby don't think the question should be is he an improvement on SB or Rondon, but how does he compare to RL or Biscuit man. Personally not sure about Lambert, but I certainly think he is better than Biscuit, (how much did he cost again?). So he would be a punt! though at £1.5 mil he is cheap enough, but how much in wages?

Oh great another striker that doesn't score.

Not an improvement on Rondon? That guy couldn't hit a cows arse with a banjo.

I remember him being outstanding in an England U21 side at Ashton Gate in 2007.  Others to stand out were James Milner  & Joe Hart.

The side also contained a certain Craig Gardner............whatever happened to him ?

If we want to move Greedo on, why would we cup-tie him which I would have thought would reduce the demand and his value.

It was noticeable that his team-mates weren't exactly ecstatic when Greedo scored and that he immediately went over to TP to shake his hand. Strange given TP has been publicly criticising him recently. Might there have been a reconciliation especially if no concrete enquiries have been made for his sulky services?

1) Would Vile sell him to us??
2) Would he come to us?? Would our fans give him a chance ( I hope we would)
3) not forgetting that horrible song we sang to him re his mother on every occasion we played them. I honestly never sang it.

If it's 1.5 million then a Bargain despite all the history.

What song?
Words and tune, please!

Part of me can't help thinking Berahino was being sarcastic, TP sending him on the pitch and cup-tying him and therefore possibly reducing his saleability.
I hope I'm wrong. About the sarcasm bit.

Football is a funny thing. Maybe TP and Saido have had a clearing of the air talk. Maybe someone close to Saido, a fellow pro, has talked him into common sense?

The handshake was weird and suggests more positive than negative things to me. But it could be purely a case of TP saying go out there score a goal and if the bids right I promise to let you go!

TP at that stage would have expected an easy win!

I assume the song was Gabby your mum's a whore.
