Cooper to Brighton

[Neath_Jack]

Faaaxk off he had Rodon, Roberts, Gallagher, Brewster etc too. Completely different to what we have now

Of those, only Gallagher has gone on to do anything of note. The others are all mediocre championship players to date.

Rodon, Gallagher and Brewster were the season before.
The season of the play off final they were replaced with Cabango, Hourihane and Ayew.

Hourihane, what a god awful acquisition he was.

Hourihane, what a god awful acquisition he was.

So much promise, what a complete let down he turned out to be.

And he hasn’t done anything since.

Was past his prime when he joined us.

I worked with a Villa fan at the time and he told me he was the Irish Messi.

Noticed he's been released by Derby after a pretty solid season in League One (probably his level).

That says a lot, Derby don’t fancy him in the Championship.

It was pretty clear he wasn't Championship standard when he was with us.

For me it depends on results. They had a pretty poor end to the season. If he gets off to a winning start it can make all the difference.

I quite enjoyed watching Forest when he took them to the premier league. He isn't as bad as half the people make him out to be when it comes to the way his teams play.

His forest side tore us a shread twice, 4-1 down here, 5-1 up there. He’s not as bad as people make out though there was an element of shithousery in the final v Brentford but that’s down to the players too

Their one to eleven was head and shoulders above ours, Brentford deserved to win on the day.

The fact we played in empty stadiums for the majority of his tenure probably didn't help the perception of Coopers style of play.

Thought he was going to be the player that would have got us automatic promotion, how wrong can one be.

True, thought he was going to be our jewel in the crown, turned out to be more of a thorn in the side.
