Posted this at the time. Got it right for once…

“Vitinha is a classic Catch 22. We sign him and he barely plays so doesn’t develop. We don’t and he gets plenty of time on the pitch at a good level and starts to look the player we saw glimpses of.”
 
I remember the consensus on here being that we should have taken up the option to sign him permanently because, even if he wasn’t obviously a world class player in the making, it was clear he had enough about him to make an easy profit if we wanted to flip him after a year or so.

Don’t think any of us foresaw quite how much he would develop, but us not signing him was just confusing at the time, though also in retrospect a real sign of things to come with Fosun’s increasingly tight financial approach and inconsistent transfer policy.
 
Let’s not consider a world in which you would legitimately ask for me to be banned every other week. ;)
EP once called him "the best footballer at the club" and he knew I was listening. I've never really forgiven him.
 
Tony Roberts part of the Backroom staff at Norwich currently losing 2-1 at Bristol.
What a knob he was.
 
Dougie Freedman leaving his role at Palace. Off to get some of that Saudi money
 
Somehow still getting contracts. How, just how

Raúl puts Mexico up early. Takes advantage of a GK flap that would make Lonners blush.
 
Wonder what sort of transfer fee Raul would hold now. Great to see him back and scoring goals regularly for club and country.
