Ode to Abdul

[channys6thswan]

A bit dull?
Not our Abdul
You know, he came from Tamale, out on the Gold Coast
(No, it’s not another Ingoldmells post)
To have the sorry Saints lads on toast.
Not just bagging the solitary goal, but the big three,
Plus that decent assist, for our man JV,
It’s not simply Abdul’s magic left foot,
A wand, so some Sky twat would have it put,
That stirs the gut.
It’s also the way he always wants to attack
And then aggressively tracks back.
Play like that, you, Harvey Barnes, should take note
Cos as a young lad you never once did owt,
Usefully, in our own half.
Now Abdul may be getting on a bit for a teenager, in fact he’s twenty,
But with skills like that, a score is plenty,
For us to bin all the mind numbing stats
To dump over the side those possession twats
And get back to gerrintoum, and fuck ‘em up.
Because in truth, that’s what we want.
A fast transition, with class, not just a hopeful punt,
And last night thanks to Abdul, we were back in the hunt.
Now onto Preston
Let’s again see the very best on,
Grass.
We march on, skint tho’ we are.
Yes, Leicester are back. With Abdul, a star.

Like the way that you elegantly crafted twat and gerrintoum into that wonderful piece of verse.

Isn't his loan the first part of a deal which says, if promoted, we pay £14.5 m?
The worry is that those in high places will find they can't pay it, a bit like Lookman last summer...

Lookman wasn't worth buying anyway. Also I'm pretty sure I read he declined the permanent deal option due to relegation.

Not sure if it's promotion or games played option to buy.
