I love it. We loan him, develop him, pay millions for it, and he scores against us in the dying minutes. You couldn’t write a better story. This club is nothing short of fucking retarded.
This.

We're paying money to help clubs like Chelsea develop their youth players, only for those same players to score goals against us in crucial moments. How the fuck do we benefit from these shit dry loans?

We look like a bunch of fucking wankers.

Any former player who celebrates against us is pretty much dead for me
That's a lot of dead people.

I dont mind them celebrating, maybe it should be the type of celebration the fomer player does.

I think some of his words in the summer off how he really wants to come to us, loves turin, follows us on social media, comments on posts, and then in match buildup he avoids every question about us and as then the celebration ( i know theres lot worse), and how he was acting like a dick in situations, just like his fellow team mates. This all feels like its a good thing we avoided him. He lacks class and were better off, plenty more kellys in the sea.

Yep, just waiting for Kolo Muani to do the same against us at some point.

Cant blame Veiga for it, we were never his permanent club, he can celebrate all he likes, he owes us nothing.

I would be celebrating too. We just didn't get the job done keeping him. Ball was in our court.
Right or wrong, he was never worth the 40 mill Chelsea wanted for him, and tbh I think he struggled more in the back 3. I think Hancko would have resolved far more issues defensively and the areas he cover more so than Veiga.

Didn't think that much, but agree too much. Let's hope he doesn't become something special. Sad how some EPL clubs have so much money, can play with Juve demanding high fees. While we're haggling at times over say a 10M-12 deal.
I don't think he'll ever be anything special, sure he actually has a really good passing range but if his time at Juve showed anything was some of his defensive flaws.

His passing here was surprisingly poor. I expected far better for someone who used to play in midfield.
Actually I put that down to his position on the field, his passing when he was in a back 4 was actually very decent, he was able to by pass the midfield and find players further up with decent accuracy, in the back 3 it practically disabled his strengh as he wasn't in the centre of the 3 where he would be a bit more imposing on the ball.

Well I think we are not taken into account the fact that maybe without him we don't make CL. So it's not completely a net negative, but I agree dry loans are generally stupid for a club of this stature.
