Seems like it's all about the money rather than playing for him
Yeah typical modern footballer by the sounds of it. If he wanted to play he would have left, he prefers to sit it out and leave for free for a big pay day next summer.
Compare that to the attitude of AMN who just wants to play. Yet we alienate the player that wants to play and do nothing with the money lover
Exactly credit to AMN for choosing playing over money. He’s been messed about something chronic by us, he’s gone from England international to barely ever playing.
I can never understand the footballers happy to sit it out on the bench. Really nuts for Nketiah to turn down a deal. Did we agree a fee but the deal fell through because Nketiah couldn't agree personal terms? Very strange since he would have been starting way more games for Palace. At least he hasn't got that long to go until his deal runs out.
Thing is if he believes in himself then a year playing will help him a lot more than a year not playing, both in terms of his game but also the amount of money he can command in future.
We wanted to get rid of him, best thing he could have done was go, playing should be the most important thing for a footballer and Palace is in London anyway so it’s not like he bad to relocate.
It sounds like it’s all about the money, he’s rather sit there for a year and not play and then go for free and get more money, not good at all.
