If we knew that by keeping Troy it would mean we stayed in the division we would keep him for ever, however that is the question
This takes us into the realm of saintly relics & other medieval superstitions. Kiss St Peter’s toe to cure leprosy. Pick the Big Man at number 9 & we won’t get relegated. The revelation came to me quite suddenly & quite powerfully on Occupation Rd at 5pm one Saturday early in the Walter season. Troy ain’t the future.
If Peter Crouch at 37 is worth 500k, there must be life left in the old Troy Yet, the Pozzo's have to decide life/value=price
I resigned myself to the fact that Souness will never be appointed. 10 years of calling for it has exhausted me both mentally and physically.
Deeney was pressing for a move to PSG after a misprint said they would be having Buffet in goal this year.
Jesus. We don't deserve any loyalty from players when we've got fans like you lot. Fat? You pie eating ****ers.
Stop it you guys! Sensitive people might be reading and they'll be off to reddit. Like the melts they are Troy Deeney says "MMMM melted cheese"
Edam Le Fondue...deja vu....I think we are trapped in a cheese and Le Fondre time warp on this forum.....
To be fair I think the Fat Deeney jokes are wearing a bit thin. boom boom... Seriously actually, he looks in reasonable shape. He's not exactly lightening quick but never was. Its a fact we don't really play to his strength but that's true of all our strikers ....plus anyone else we buy probably. Even the mighty Vydra.
You only have to look at pictures and footage of Deeney in the final Championship years to realise that he has an unhealthy obsession with bulking up with muscle though. I don’t buy into all the ‘fat’ comments because I don’t think he is. But he was a far better player when he was leaner and I don’t understand how he doesn’t realise that. I don’t think he comes back unfit every summer. I suspect he is fit (injuries aside) when he returns in pre-season but he’s gained a lot of that fitness by being in the gym and focussing on muscle.
Completely agree. Its all to do with his perception of being "the main man" and hanging around with Joshua. If I ever get my hands on Joshua he'll soon regret ruining Deeney for us.
Personally I would love to see Deeney stay, yes he may not be anywhere as good as he used to be but he is literally Mr Watford. I don't want to see him sat on the bench at Cardiff being called a flop and being remembered for that. The guy is a legend and has been a massive factor in getting us to where we are, one of the only survivors from our promotion campaign from the championship. That all being said, one striker will need to leave to allow another one in. I think it's more likely Okaka leaves. Gray and our 1 or 2 new forward signings will be ahead of Deeney in the pecking order. Also why not give Jakubiak some playing time, never know he might get a goal and come good!
So £100k a week for the next 3 years just to have ineffective Mr Watford is a good investment? Besides we can look forward to similar threads about Deeney like some here do with Fessi, they'll have another person they can't move on from.
Troy is so fat that Cardiff withdrew their offer because when his agent called he couldn’t answer his mobile because he’d eaten it.
