Zappacosta

Another loan. 

We seem to struggle actually sellung these guys, must be on silly money. 
And the fact hes not very good, has recently had bad injuries, hes 29 and we most likely want to recoup around the same money we paid for him and no one is silly enough to pay it. Getting loan fees is the best way of getting some money back for him.

How much is the loan fee?

In fact im quite curious to know the loan fees we get for these players, I suspect its not much at all

Not sure, But i suspect its cheaper for Genoa to get Zappacosta on loan that buy a player outright of the same quality.

 
Zappa just scored a 30 yard screamer for Genoa. Looks their best player TBH.

Sold to Atalanta for €10m.

You sort of hoped we would repeat the trick of Alonso by signing an unknown who ended up being quality. 

Apparently not. 

Done well to offload him on a permanent transfer for a relatively decent fee.

Yup given then market it is good to get a permanent  deal. 

All these deals add up, Lukaku fee is covered already and this and Zouma frees up cash and space for Kounde.

 
Dreadful signing. Just never fitted in. See a player like Zappacosta in the line up and you don't see a team that will be challenging for the PL or CL.

Hopefully the days of us signing players of that ilk are a thing of the past.

As much as he was ordinary he never had any serious disasterclass type games.
That was my view of him, never did anything particularly well but he didn't play particularly badly either and showed a few promising flashes of play from what I can remember. 

Anyway best of luck to him 

 
All the best to him - I'm glad he's going to a more fun team which should suit him far better.

Saying that, thank God Reece James turned up when he did.

 
I was expecting a loan but we’ve finally got one off the books. 
 

Good luck to him - was a decent squad player I though. 

 
Will always remember Zappa for this goal.
