He was useless for us, lightweight, couldn't cross and flitted in and (mostly) out of matches !

It's fairly typical that once somebody has left they are pronounced as world beaters, I'll wager that he becomes no more than a fringe player for Palace !

looking at him today (and against man city) he seems to be a proper nippy wide player...and we let him go...? (not too sure)

 

he would be EXACTLY what we need right now on the right hand side...[/QUOTE]

 

That was part of the problem, he is left sided and was only ever played on the right, I guess because he didn't have the pace (or the bravery) to get to the byeline !

What with our zillions we could probably afford to buy him? Having seen him play he is exactly what we need and I think palace would probably sell for £2 million? I don't remember him playing for saints. When was this? Doesn't matter, we often release or sell players who then go on to be successful. He's probably learnt a lot from his time at Palace. Come on ML, stop being tight and get the money out....

Nile Ranger who left our academy is playing for Newcastle at the moment.One that got away?

 

was a bit of a trouble maker in the academy, sometimes things dont work out and a move is best for all parties.

 

good luck to Ryan, according to the bbc transfers page it's only a short term deal he's on.

it is the ex saint playing for palace at the mo..?

 

if so, he looks exactly what the team is crying out for....strange

 

Smith certainly never lacked effort though I'm not sure if he would ever have made it with us. To be fair though, I do remember a few concerned voices amongst the cries of joy when he left. Not all thought he was crap...

 

Me? I'm fencesitting this out until we know for certain whether he did get the speed of Fabrice Fernandez and the tenacity of Paul McGrath or if it was the other way around ;)

Sarmiento?

According to Wikipedia, over the last two years he's played about 60 games for Larissa in the Greek top division. They finished 6th and then 5th in the league, qualifying for the Europa League this year.

 

Meanwhile, we finished 20th and 23rd in the English second division and are at our lowest level in 49 years. I reckon the joke is squarely on our shoulders here.

 

In conclusion, I blame Burley, or maybe Lowe or Redknapp or one of the usual suspects. Typical bloody Saints, etc.

NOOOOOOOO!

This is EXACTLY why he was so ineffective last season. Playing on the left he always looked dangerous.
