Tom13 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 That's sad, I really like him. Guess if he wants to go we can't really stop him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 (edited) Sell him. Farming him out to shit league on loan isn't going to benefit us. He'll simply return after his loan and give us more of the same shite from last season. Edited August 8, 2016 by Dr_Pangloss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted August 8, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 8, 2016 I'd rather just get him settled and get him playing. Good player in there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would not agree that a player can't develop a lot during a season in League 1, just look at what remarkable progress Ben Arfa had a Nice. Came on a free and scored 17 goals and made 6 assists, then sold to PSG for good money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay.P.A Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 After watching our midfield yesterday, Jordan Veretout needs to start....if he's not going that is. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I get the impression he doesn't want to be part of this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame because I think he'd do well in the championship. Ayew and McCormack made so many good runs, but our midfield couldn't pick them out or spot them. I was thinking how Veretout would've been very useful with competent strikers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 (edited) If the rumors about the club not helping him settle at all and Tim not even speaking to him are true, I can see why he want's to move on. I can imagine, with all that has happened at the club during the summer, that it's only natural that not much attention has been put towards him and his situation here. Also think there is a player in there, but can't see him remaining here. Yeah, he did not take his chances here, but I blame the previous staff for him not getting the proper support.

I've seen things he possess which I don't think any of our midfielders in his position have (Maybe Tshibola) - which is quick feet with the ability to turn away from players with quick turn. Then he has a quality delivery with his set-pieces. The talent is there!! C'mon Jordan.....stay! Edited August 8, 2016 by Jay.P.A 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No coincidence that he looks much better in Ligue 1 vs Premier League IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherwood left at the end of October so don't think the blame can be fully held at his door. If Garde couldn't get a reaction from the player then its perhaps for the best if he moves on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.Bear Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Its hard to remember now but the hype behind this guy when we signed him was intense. And yet he was another one of our big bag of midfield passengers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like when any club signs a foreign player, the youtube videos are trotted out and he's the next superstar and then he plays half of one game and everyone realises he's Tonev. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
