Ismaïla Sarr

[JHB]

‘Pissed OFF’ you mean surely 😳?!

Does explain why he couldn’t train though

 

[eritheagle]

He didn't win me back. Especially now he's thrown another hissy fit and is expecting Palace to release him from a legally binding contract so he can get his 'dream move' on a free!

that supposedly happened in january aswell. Only reported recently.

Sarr is a quality player. We have no idea who/what started messing with his head - convincing him he could do better elsewhere.

However, the fact is, we need the energy and goals he brings to the team.

Don’t judge him on last night, he will get fitter, improve and like Guehi, give 100% before the inevitable departure.

Much as I would like his behaviour to mirror Guehi, Lacroix, Olise and (in the main) Eze, in this case I believe the mask has slipped.

Sarr has form for having his head turned by agents. Liverpool have form for tapping up his agent(s).

I see lots of similarities between him in the last few weeks and 2021 ish when again agents claimed Liverpool were about to sign him from Watford but no official offer came in.

Our most potent goal scorer, needs to play every game. I don't care about his character traits, as long he scores goals for us.

I have no problem with the manager picking him and if he scores great. But I will treat the c*** like he treats us. It’s his job do it, get paid and f*** off. He feels he owes us nothing so I for one will think of him as the resource he is. I think unfortunately that is how we have to feel about modern players. For every Ward there are 50 Sarrs.

Good post , when he came on yesterday, I heard a few boos and a few cheers. I couldn’t be bothered to do either.
Like you say, he can score goals, I’ll celebrate the team and the goal, then he can F**k off.
In years to come when the Fa cup team are brought on the pitch at our 80,000 capacity stadium🤣. sarr, mateta and Glasner can stay at home. c*nts

If we were on about 4 goals scored I would think the players would welcome him back. s*** they’ve got 13 so sarr needs to join in or f*** off.

I think he was talking about "the African player", so African players generally rather than Sarr specifically. When I read the quotes I took it to mean he feels they get exploited/commoditized more than players from other parts of the world.

On the face of it football has to be one of the most meritocratic industries I can think of where if you are good enough you get to the top clubs and demand the top salaries.

But it would not surprise me if there is substance to what he is saying.

I'm happy to be exploited/commoditized if all that involves is playing football and being paid millions per year. Where do I sign up? Emailed info@cpfc but didn't get a reply...

"anywhere is a prison if you cannot leave it" - isn't that what Ronnie Biggs said?

In any event can see your point! I was referencing Diomansy Kamara's quotes and saying they were not about Palace specifically.

True - and as earnings increase, you become acclimatised to those increased earnings and then you generally want more. I can understand the money chasing to an extent as I'm sure we all can.

But really, these guys need to get some perspective. They're earning millions doing something they love, and people pay a lot of hard earned money and spend a lot of time travelling around the country to support them. African or otherwise, they're doing pretty well. Agents like this guy would do well to remember that, especially as they're essentially leeching from this system and making lots of money from it!

When warming up last night, he didn’t engage with his peers. Not sure who was ignoring who. A few loud comments directed at him from the stands - wouldn’t necessarily agree with the words used. Equally there was support for him - demonstrating how the supporters are split. When he came on - some applause but equally some boos. Thought he tried, but he made no impact and I didn’t see his reaction walking off.
In my opinion, he doesn’t want to be here and his shenanigans will continue after the international break. He has to go!

 

[Fanofzhiyi]

correct. A player with an attitude-problem is not a top player. No matter how brilliant he is on the ball. Think about Samir Nasri.....a red card specialist.

No top club wants a Prima Donna. Maybe we made a mistake signing him. If the strop continues, then defo a mistake. In terms of quids-spent-per-goal, a professional player with only half the talent of Sarr would have been better.

Sarr, i hope you are reading this. Or let some other Eagle print it and hand it to the big girls blouse.

No chance did we make a mistake signing him.

we are 3 trophy’s to the good. Only now has he let himself down, you could see last season the players loved him.

The good thing is we seem to have a lot of goals across the team now even without Sarr. Get him firing again, offload in Jan and bring in a centre back
