    Apparently the club doesn't understand the meaning of the word extension.

    2 years, they said June 2014. I understand the confusion though, the numpties have called it a 2 year extension when it's actually either a 1 year extension or a new 2 year contract.

    Hungaria?? Hmm should be expecting a Ku De Ta any time soon there then. Your presence just mere coincidence.

    Given that the club, Koren and the fans felt that the existence of a release clause in the last contract was important, I doubt whether the views of an illiterate moron such as yourself will carry much weight.

    have you got room to lengthen your pitch?
    you could go 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1

    as a leicester fan I am so relieved to hear this news----i think np would have played him out of position if he played him at all and hes too old for our squad

    In all fairness, he did want a three-year deal.
    Although I'm sure that was more out of financial security for the later stages of his career as opposed to loyalty.

    Koren couldn't have looked less interested yesterday, he was a completely different player once he moved into the middle, he might be more than capable of playing on the wing, but he couldn't make it more obvious that he doesn't want to.

    He's still bloody good at it. He had a great first half yesterday.

    It will be very interesting next Saturday.

    Hopefully we can have Aluko and Stewart on the wings with Koren + McKenna/ANO in the centre mid.

    Koren and Evans looked a really good pairing at the Amex.

    Patience everyone!

    He probably would have played him out of position so you're right to be happy, it's probably the first time a move wouldn't suit either club or the player (other than financially), but if you think Koren's age is important then you can't really know how Koren plays the game. Unless someone comes in and snaps his leg (which can happen to any player) I'll be amazed if Koren's game in 3 or 4 years' time is different to how he plays now, or even how he played when he first joined West Brom. There's pretty much nothing in his game that should deteriorate due to getting older until he's in his late 30s when stamina might be more of an issue (although he's hardly a hard worker now so can't see it).

    Yes I'm sure you're relieved, I mean its not as if he scores against you every season
