Negredo

[kennyboy]

I really liked him as a player for us, "The beast" sad when he left, homesick was is?
Surprised when he sign for a english team again, and Boro!

I would even be more surprised if Nolito is any better than him.

Good luck to the guy!

[I Just Blue Myself]

Nolito is a completely different type of player, but if he is no better than Negredo, that's another 14m down the drain.

Agent? Hope not, and that he was bought for his skills..

Don't believe so.

I read somewhere that part of the reason for signing Nolito is that he knows the Pep way and will act as a mentor of sorts to the likes of Sterling and Sane.

Loved these two goals by Neggers

If only we were able to keep him instead of Bony

That turn against spuds was pure class. Such a shame he turned to shite after the injury.

You have to wonder if anyone has sent him to a psychiatrist. How can someone so good turn so shite. He wasn't Michael Ricketts......then again?

[PrezIke]

The story that he was "homesick" was surely a bunch of nonsense. There is no suck thing sas "homesickness" as a clinical term anyway. It's called anxiety, and we hear Navas actually struggles with it (there are various forms and affects people differently...some in certain situations, others all of the time, et.), which I think could explain why Navas falters with his final pass when he is not as confident.

We also heard Negredo's wife wanted to stay in Spain, I think because of their kids.

Reality was he was probably upset he dropped by Pellegrini in pecking order to Dzeko after he fizzled in the 2nd half of the season plus perhaps some of the frustration from his family and adjusting to a new culture/language.

Wish him the best at Boro as he did great for us for a time during Pelle's first season, but it was a great sale for us compared to what he has become since.

Did nowt last year back home in Spain really. Doubt at Boro he will get in double figures. Wish him well though

So he won't suffer the same problems at boro? The problem occurs when you come out with bullshit excuses to explain your poor form, then hope everyone forgets when you completely contradict what you said.

I actually said it was an excuse mate.

I don't think he was really "homesick" or suffering from serious anxiety like Navas. Maybe he left more because he realized he was dropped after playing so well, in poor form, injured, frustrated and maybe combine that with trouble adapting to the culture/language, and his wife in his ear. Who knows, but his ego surely cannot be as big this time around about such a thing.

[Plain Speaking]

Strong rumours around his departure something like.. he had to leave the country because he had an extra-martial relationship. His wife was unhappy and I a local "gangster" had threatened his life if he stayed?... Check out the old threads on here and BM if you want to know more.

[Mase]

I heard he was scared of Kolarov. So he left.

I also vaguely remember something about a tax issue that was hanging over his head back in Spain.

Anyway. Good half season. Loved his style. Proper No9 tough guy. Loved his style.

Cheers
