Because he's absolutely shit. A potato. Atrocious signing. He'd struggle in the Championship.
A wide target man? Nah. His best position would be a ball boy.

Not training with the first team.
Removed as the clubs number 9.
Not even had his photo taken for club website.
No green screen done.
Absolute burial from Pochettino. I wonder what Janssen done. I know he's been a flop but he's always shown more when playing than NKoudou ever has for example.
And some people think Toby was frozen out last season. No, THIS is a freeze out.
Did he not refuse to go to Brighton last summer?It's just hard for me to fathom how we couldn't get him a prem loan deal this season or last.
So many teams without any top strikers on their books- you'd think we'd have been able to get him 20+ games somewhere. I think Vinny could have been converted into a wide Target man style player but alas it was not to be. Poor purchase overall by the club, and I think poor handling of the situation since he has been here.
Forgot about that, but you are correct Sir:Did he not refuse to go to Brighton last summer?
Blind faith.It's just hard for me to fathom how we couldn't get him a prem loan deal this season or last.

Definitely could have done a job a bottom half clubIt's just hard for me to fathom how we couldn't get him a prem loan deal this season or last.

The transfer window isn't even open yet!

The paper talk at the time was that both Poch and Levy were ripping mad. He'd already been left out of the CL squad, and it seems we may even have threatened to freeze him out if he refused to move.I wonder if that pissed Poch off.
Very foolish opting for a Turkish side over a PL loan. It’s a shame because he needed his confidence rebuilding after a poor start. He’s always looked very good on the international team & in spite of the fact that it’s been dire for him since his move here, I think he could go on to have a good career. I think he fucked his chances here after we set him up with a good loan to Brighton. Silly fucker.

As I remember it, I think Brighton wanted to loan him but he claimed he wanted to stay here and compete for a place?? Pretty silly of him, (if not a little admirable, I suppose) if true.It's just hard for me to fathom how we couldn't get him a prem loan deal this season or last.

Would love to see us try and sell him to Ajax. Would be a good move for all parties you feel, and also keeps our "good relationship" with Ajax going strong....
Brighton last season would have been perfect for him. The only reason I think he didn't that would have any real justification is if he didn't fancy himself with the pace of the Premier League. I'm still really surprised we haven't seen a team looking for a big strong hold up player that will allow for wide forwards to run in behind take him. Vincent is great at that and would chip in with a fair few goals at all. He should probably go back to Holland now and be a big fish in a smaller pond
I think a bigger problem is Levy and his value on our players. I doubt anyone in Holland bar perhaps the big clubs could afford what Levy would want in terms of a permanent transfer.
