    Never heard of him, but then again I hadn't heard of Hooiveld or Tadanari either.

    What's to say he wouldn't fit in. He's established in the USA, he's an international.

    I get a rough idea of your argument but we don't know anything about the bloke really as I can't recall ever seeing him play.

    Completely agree, would just prefer players that can make an instant impact.

    Not another Tim Ream (Bolton), hyped up and got relegated... <whistle>

    It will be July before we sign anyone I reckon.

    Players and staff will be enjoying their holidays. <ok>

    I don't think you can really blame Tim Ream for Bolton going down!

    Late June perhaps, but I agree that we won't see much for a while.

    I would be suprised if we havnt signed anyone before the Liebherr cup, or else whats the point in having a pre season if half the team havnt signed for us yet?

    You say that, but he's only played 3 games for the USA.

    Still, can't knock as I nothing about him. Let's see what happens.

    I know it was tongue in cheek anyway, but he's just moved from Leverkusen to Hoffenheim so he'll be going nowhere this summer.

    As for Bas Dost, he's had a great season but that doesn't make him a great player. Nasri had a good season at Arsenal a few years ago and he's turd.

    I know what you mean. He's established a reputation in the MLS though!

    But I agree. We can't really say anything.

    Yep, looking at what we can find online, Liebherr Tournament is definitely July 14th. Team off to Switzerland and playing 2 teams, one is FC Lucerne between 19th of July and 9th of August?

    So I imagine we will seek to get majority of new boys in, for the ML Cup, then off to Switzerland for the final preps before returning to Champneys.

    Nasri is class, a money grabbing turd but a class one as well.

    Yakubu anyone? Says he has played championship football before and doesn´t want to play there again.
    I know he is similar to Lambert but I rate Yakubu very highly. He scored 17 premier league goals last season for a poor Blackburn side (joint 4th top goal scorer in the league).

    I think the first Premier League transfer with a fee last season was Jordan Henderson on June 9th. I could be wrong.
