I saw Ruel Fox score a diving header once, though. He was better than Sissokko lolHe was a Dozzell / Ruel Fox signing.
If that.

The standard when comparing anyone to sissoko should be thus:I saw Ruel Fox score a diving header once, though. He was better than Sissokko lol
Jaco I'm not sure what you are disagreeing with there?£5.22 million according to this
Moussa Sissoko - Transfer history
Moussa Sissoko, 32, from France ➤ Watford FC, since 2021 ➤ Central Midfield ➤ Market value: £4.05m ➤ * Aug 16, 1989 in Le Blanc-Mesnil, Francewww.transfermarkt.co.uk
How do they come up with such a specific price? Are they just saying "about 6 mil Euros" and purely guessing it?
To be fair it says 'market value 9m' so maybe I should just stop looking at that site.
Lol...... As far as him being a hipsters choice goes; you couldn't get further from the truth.
£15 million for each"Sissoko was a key figure in the win over Chelsea at Wembley on Saturday and was the driving force behind this win too."
100% agree. Perhaps some cannot get over the alleged fee of circa £30m. from memory it was right at the end of the window and Newcastle could hold out. I wasn’t impressed when we signed him and use to groan at his crossing & passing during his first season but something changed during the Wembley season and I remember him becoming really effective. He played loads of games, good injury record, schooled Mark Noble. we have had more naturally talented players who have contributed a lot less.Several Coaches loved what Sissoko brought, hipsters did not. He’s never winning awards for Aesthetics, but to win over Benitez, Pochettino, Deschamps & Mourinho shows there was was something there.
I really don’t get the venomous hate for him from some quarters; honestly his Spurs career went as well as could be expected in my eyes -

Was that the one from Teddy’s volleyed cross at Wimbledon where we went top?I saw Ruel Fox score a diving header once, though. He was better than Sissokko lol
Thrown under the bus by PochSoldado cost nearly as much and was dreadful for 2 years and all he got was sympathy and love. I hate our fans sometimes.
If it wasn’t for Siss we would never have reached the CL final100% agree.

When? He gave Soldado every chance and he played himself out of the team.Thrown under the bus by Poch
When he scored an absolute cracker against Everton and we thought that at last he’s getting his confidence backWhen? He gave Soldado every chance and he played himself out of the team.
All sorts of excuses were made for him, but the fact is a barely interested Adebayor and a unseasoned Kane were getting goals in the same team people were maligning for not creating enough chances for him.
For Chelsea away 3 days later . I agreed with Poch.When he scored an absolute cracker against Everton and we thought that at last he’s getting his confidence back
So what did Poch do?
Dropped him!
Wish I hadn't said that...he's playing today ffsQuite big add-ons though for goals scored!

More of a meme than a footballer. Wish the guy well, just not in our shirt thank you.So happy he’s gone. An absolute anti footballer. Over the top chants for him today too.
