https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/6210791/watford-fail-in-attempt-to-sign-spanish-goal-machine-fran-sol/ TL;DR - he's not joining our tinpot, **** football playing joke of a club.
Comments a bit rude given our hospitality. Hope he does his cruciate. Though i guess that would be far more likely if he joined our band of walking wounded.
It's good when a player realises his own limitations and works out the level is too tough for him on his own. Saves us doing it for him. Better to go somewhere where he gets loads of chances and an age on the ball.
Surely anyone in their right mind wouldn't be making comments like that. Especially a player whose achievements are very limited. Hopefully other clubs look at his attitude and f him off.
He wants to join a winning team where he can score lots of goals. So why not a 6-month loan to Watford? Not a full season, obviously
Very strange. So, if those quotes are true, then one minute the trip here was as if he was "living the dream"... then a week later it was supposedly "nothing special"... sounds like one of those involved has last-minute pulled the plug, but was it him or us?!... Also, our attacking problems have been more with finishing chances than actually creating them.
Just seen his comments, what a terd! Hope he gets his dream move to a winning team where he gets a lot of chances to score goals and snaps his spine in half in the first minute. I'm furious!
Haha what an idiot. Regardless of his comments I really don't want another Belgian or Dutch league player this season, they never work out.
I wonder if we didn’t turn him down. That’s how it reads to me. Either that or he’s mentally unstable.
Or possibly he was a target mentioned by Gracia and has subsequently been told of a change to the club's position?
Sounds bitter, think he misunderstood the terms of the transfer (I.e. another player to join the Pozzo pool to be sent out on numerous loans) or a potential change in Head Coach over the Summer put a freeze on all transfers until then. To be fair, I can understand why he's throwing a wobbly, it must be ******* devastating to know the club you want to play for rather have Deeney, Gray and Okaka over you.
