Farewell Feggy

Arrived back from my holidays to discover that another of last summer's buys has gone. Sofiane Feghouli has been sold to Galatasary for £3.8 million. He actually had a decent second half of last season and ended up with four goals. If Bilic had faith in the player it's a little strange that he hasn't given him a second season as a squad player at least. More evidence perhaps that we're making up our transfer policy as we go along. Yes, Sofiane could be frustrating, but his performances in games like the 3-0 win against Palace suggested he would at least offer an option as a conventional right winger coming off the bench. Farewell Feggy —  and we certainly won't forget your kissing of the green plastic after scoring against NK Domzale in the Europa League.

Personally, I'd have kept him. Could be lively off the bench and I think at least as good as £20m Ayew. Could we use Snodgrass as part ex on Dembele?

Could be an idea if Rodgers is up for it. Snodgrass still well-though of in Scotland…
