Goodbye you beautiful Belgian bastard. Was immense for us. Think Qatar is too early for him, but if the money sets his kids up for life I won't blame him. Shame we never won anything with Toby, Was a rock for us.

Wow! I almost didn't think this transfer was true. I'm sure he'll smash it in Qatar - I actually expect him to transfer back to Europe in a year or two.

Anyone know what we got for him? I heard £13M originally but see Alasdair Gold has been saying £10M recently.

End of an era ????

I wonder if we will ever know the truth of his fallout with Poch, seemed to run a bit deeper than a contract dispute

Such a great player and an absolute rock for years. His partnership with Verts was probably the best we ever have fielded in the Premier League.

Thanks Toby, thanks Belgium boys, good luck!

What a player. Some passing range for a centre back. Good luck Toby!

We'll be lucky to see a better CB pairing than the two Belgians.

Yeah same, reckon he’s gone over there to get some mega wonga then will move either back to Ajax or a club in Belgium league.

Great player, him and Jan best I’ve seen in my years of going. Too good for Qatar, but hopefully he’s making massive money to have a good future for him and his family

After a couple of years out there he could probably buy Ajax or at a push the Belgian league.

Good luck Toby
