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. 

As much as he was ordinary he never had any serious disasterclass type games.

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.

Good luck, Zappa!

@CaitlinCFC will be distraught.

The bar has been set pretty low for the class of 2017.

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.

Yes. It has ruined the season for me already.

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.

Hope he scores a belter against Utd and drop them to the Europa 

I wish him all the best, never made a fuss. Was not suited to the PL
