My opinion is that last summer the jury was out on JSL. He had a good season for us but was he just a journeyman striker having a purple patch? That purple patch was facilitated by the sublime talents of players since sold off by Jeff.
Newcastle thought not and were prepared to pay £50mil plus. As far as I am concerned, the verdict is guilty. We finally dodged a bullet when we offloaded him to Palace.

Let's wait and see what he does this season, Deep. With a full season in a proper Prem club, run by pros rather than the absolute nonsense he had to put up with at our place this season. The reality is that if two teams were offering £45-50m for him, then they must have seen something to justify those offers.
In fairness to him, it's hard to score with no service, and this season "no service" is, in fact, an overstatement for the attacking opportunities we offered. ?

Let's see, Bully, but he's had a few months in a good Palace team and he's finding it hard to score even with proper service. Could be a one-season wonder.

He's not our player any more. Move on.
If you want a real laugh, I see Jamie Vardy (39) is looking for a club closer to his family's home in Leicester ? after his team in Italy were relegated.
