Good old Collin. I tell you, he was the missing link last season.

Jan says the whole squad will be involved on Saturday.

Great work by Big Coll who then laid the ball to VLP for a cracking finish. Wagner lost the plot when he refused to play VLP
Bacuna excellent last night and Jan was right to sub him, the Donny players kept hacking at him and he was ready to extract revenge one way or the other

Thought we (and Wolves before) were just a stepping stone to a better place to be for VLP?

Must have been another VLP then?
IF he stops diving when an old lady of a fullback using a zimmer frame to keep him(her, surely)self upright comes near him (L666s usually have a few
) then I'll somewhat agree with you Wakey, but my abiding memories of him so far are yelling at him "Stay on your feet you diving t**t". He cost us more possession and pitch position than any of the yards he ever gained running the ball out of defense playing for Wagbo. It's my opinion based on what I saw and I respect yours because it's based on what you saw, but I didn't argue with Wagbo when he dropped him or when he tried to send him on his way to that better place to be that he said he wanted to be. In this case 'Boro.
Once he realised he wasn't getting a sniff of a regular game there either, he seems to maybe have had an attitude re-adjustment. Well, it's only a Wolves and Town career so far that his attitude has screwed up (and maybe others before) but he looked OK in the Donny highlights I watched. The goal he scored was as good as any at International level that would have had common tater's the world over drooling had it been a Messi or a Ronaldo.
If he starts to ride a few tackles, stays on his feet, keeps the ball, puts some DECENT crosses in, maybe scores a couple a month and finally gets properly crunched by a new age Chopper McGill and actually wins a free kick in a dangerous position rather than diving over the old woman with her zimmer playing right back somewhere by the touchline about 10 yds past the halfway line and giving the ball away, I'll applaud him to the hills.
Somewhere between your view and mine there might just be a talented footballer.
Not many genuine Chopper McGill's around these days though are there?

All about opinions Theo otherwise it’d be a boring old world.
Sobhi,MBenza,Diakhaby,VLP,Kachunga,Quaner..just 27 starts between them in the PL last season and most of them after DW left the building. The first 3 have cost us a pretty penny on Dave’s say so and yet his arse fell out and wouldn’t play any of them.

Too right Wakey. At least we haven't got VAR to moan about (yet) in the proper football world.
