With Buffon leaving PSG, I can see it being Hugo leaving us.

That said, I don't think guessing players in this thread is a great idea!

Did JJ definitely say ‘fans favourite’ or a people coming to that conclusion when he said something on the lines of people would not expect these players to be sold?

This is exactly what I'm thinking. Are people making up things that JJ said or did he specifically say 'fans favourite'?

Definitely not made up. I can't remember the exact expression, it may of been exactly that, but it's meaning was a popular player and would come as a surprise to many.

That was certainly the inference, so definitely not made up.

Ah ok, thanks. I remember seeing something along the lines of a name that isn't being discussed in the media but I must have missed the other!

The exact wording is “not previously mentioned in the press who you don’t expect” nothing about fan favourites

Someone you don't expect is someone who's probably popular or selected frequently because they're performing well - imo, that's not such a stretch to reach that conclusion.

Never used that term myself though.

Sorry can someone shed some light on where this “fan favourite” thing has come from?

What was said, and what was the context?

As stated above by am_yisrael_chai, some fans have taken liberties over the wording in the itk JJ provided. The exact wording was someone leaving “not previously mentioned in the press who you don’t expect”.

Some fans have also taken liberties and guessed every fucking player ten times over.

If Eriksen has sold his house, as the ITK suggests, he must know a bid is coming.

What was his intentions with that interview then? No good could come from it.

The “fans favourites” comment was in early May in reaction to Poch’s change the way we do things interview.
Jetset said “He’s just preparing everybody for large upheaval with the players and fans favourites“. He said this over a month ago!
