Almen Abdi joins Sheff Wed

Sharing a shirt? How tinpot.

 

I'm going to have a tearful tug over a highlights video tonight. I'm sure I won't be the only one

 

Who will do all the translation now?

 

A sad day indeed.

I shall change my recovery provider as a memorial.:dismay:

 

Fee rises to 6 million if Sheffield Wednesday go up.

Abdi looks over the moon to be there.What a **** kit,one of the worst I have ever seen.

The goals Abdi scored against Fulham has to be in the greatest goals ever scored for Watford.

 

Have you seen our kit yet?

 

Got the away kit,very nice proper old Skool.Watford have got a couple of gems on the way,this year we will step up,Watch and see.

 

Why did you buy the shirt? Did you lose a bet?

 

Cracks are appearing in the highgrade troll. He'd never be caught dead wearing replica polyester.

 

Only at home and when chilling,trips to the shops etc.On match days it's only stoney.

 

Is this... is this how a break up feels?

Empty?

I was sad when FF went. This is different.

 

...and it cuts like a knife
He's out of my....life

M Jackson. The 1980s.

 

If it makes any of you feel better.....Abdi doesn't care about you.

 

It does. At least I know he's not hurting like I am. I just want him to be happy. I'm not important.

 

I'm just going to cry-wxnk my way through this .

It's worked for me before , it will work now .

Sheffield Wednesday didn't sign Almen Abdi.
God signed Sheffield Wednesday, and he's going to **** about on the pitch for them for a bit.

 

Gutted he's gone. What an exceptional player.

 

Looking at this thread I'd dread to think what would have happened if Deeney had left. Definite few cases here for forum suicide watch.

 

He's already dead to me. Gone to meet his maker. Pushing up daisies. He is an ex-Hornet.

 

He's Pining for the watfjords.

 

I like that no one has had the heart to change the Prefix to 'Confirmed' just yet.

From snippets I've seen it seems Abdi was very popular with the squad, Journos as well as the fans too. A classy man and universally popular all round it seems!
It sounds like the club got a very good deal for someone turning 30 this season though, I hope he and Sheffield Watford do well this season too as it sounds like promotion for them means we benefit again.

 

The Sheffield Star is carrying this from an interview with Almen:

The bit in bold is interesting. Seem like the decision to move on was at best mutual and possibly even at his own request.

 

Indeed. I wonder how other elegant midfielders whose game is based on precision rather than speed and tricks would do in the Prem as wing-backs - Modric, for example.

BTW, have you read https://inthewolfsmouth.com/2016/07/28/outgoing-almen-abdi-mr-robot/? Good piece.

 

Yep, very much at Abdi's request.

I do find it a little strange that he's been told he can't play his favoured position, even though we don't have anyone who can actually play that position.

 

But we're getting Boufal, Lemina and Zaha apparently.

One won't play til October, one isn't an attacking midfielder and the other's a winger who hates us.

Sean Murray is fit though.

 

Well no s**t sherlock. He wanted out because the new manager thinks he's a wing back.

Flores you absolute bastad.

 

Pozzo Policy has always been not to sell before a replacement has been secured ... so basically we already have our man in the bag but naturally protocols have to be observed. Time between agreeing and announcing international signings can vary immensely.

 

True watford Legend shame he was played out of position last season
this is probably his best performance in a watford shirt
