Bye bye bye bye, Graziano

14 downvotes? :astonished:

Even the most hysterical mouth-frothing political post can’t compete with that sort of form!

Well done Bletch, you are still the King of Turk Town.

He has been well turked here :lou_lol:

So - if I may - on the subject of Pelle…

Hugely underrated. Delivered a crazy return on investment, even with (or perhaps especially considering) the injury struggles last season. Plays a different game to what the masses are used to; but those that knew what he brought to our game understood and appreciated that.

Was allocated unfair levels of blame for our end-of-year slumpwhen, the entirety of the football we were playing in that period was garbage. As good as Shane Long was last season, Koeman’s complete change of tactics made most of the difference. And Graziano still outscored Shane.

An intelligent player that knew how to work around his limitations - not just aesthetically classy. I’m sad that he’s gone, though ultimately it makes good business sense for both parties.

you guise prob just didn’t understand it. It’s v.clever joke! You can all Suck It!

I’ll miss how he cares more than anyone ever has when a pass fails, and I’ll miss his rugby dives and themed celebrations.

But I won’t miss those free headers from six yards going into the face of a child in row L.

I think we should all downvote Bearsy for

  1. Crap joke.

  2. Claiming intellectual superiority in an effort to cover said crap joke.

It’s prob just ahead of times. It’s not really a joke for today, but think of ur children, and ur children’s children. One day, they will find these archives, and they will be all pissing their space-suits srs.

Only five downvotes?

I’d call that a fucking result bearing in mind the content and the tension building to it.

Then again there are only nine online and one of them is you.

5 out of 8 against isn’t enough to discourage Jeremy Corbyn, I reckon you should go for another ā€˜joke’ of the same quality.

Yeah, OK, it’s the Sun but I don’t disbelieve them

Graziano Pelle’s move from Southampton to Chinese side Shandong Luneng has made the 30-year-old striker the sixth highest-paid player in the world on Ā£260,000 a week. (Sun)

he needs most of that for hair gel

Good job Brexit happened.

He’d probably only be on Ā£220K a week at previous exchange rates :lou_sunglasses:

He’s a bloody foreigner, going over there, taking jobs off Chinese centre forwards!

It’s funtime in Shandong… http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3686075/Graziano-Pelle-mobbed-Shandong-Luneng-fans-striker-lands-China-girlfriend-Viktoria-Varga-13m-transfer.html?ITO=1490&ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490

WARNING contains Viktoria Varga boob shot.

Looking at that article you can buy a Graziano inflatable…if only some on here had known that before.

UPDATE…Bearsy’s joke (?) post needs just 7 more downvotes to break the Sotonian alltime record…make it happen!
