What happened then? Couldn't agree a fee with Dnipro or what? Was excited at the thought of this lad and the possible signing of Dempsey, it was a long shot but there was a chance and now we are going for Rose who does have potential so I wouldn't write him off yet and the crock Jermaine Jenas. I personally think as it stand if we sign these two then are they going to go into the side?? Not for me, I would rather stick with Colback at Left Back and Larsson in CM, we have done well up to now in this transfer window but today was the perfect chance for us to kick on even further with a quality left back to walk into the side and another attacking player who would of improved us and guaranteed us top 10 IMO and we have signed these 2 who IMO are no better than what we have. Disappointed with todays dealings upto now, hopefully Martin Olsson in later today and Rose is just a back up left back/left winger
oh get a grip, make up a signing, flap about when you hear nothing more about it. You're like a bunch of women!
Seb Larsson in CM is a massive NO from me mate, it isn't his position, he doesn't look comfortable playing there and doesn't seem to have much positional sense either. Playing against top CM's in the premier league week in, week out, we would be over-run and outplayed, IMO
what u on about you cock nothing I said is out of order there Jenas is a crock good player or not and all I have said is I don't think they will walk in the side when it was the perfect chance to add more quality
Poolie i read that Dnipro had 2 LB's one was Strinic the other cant remember his name got injured so they did not want to sell
Ok sorry , no I don't know what's happened with the Strinic signing, though I don't know if we ever made a bid. It's probably an exaggerated rumour.
ah thats fair enough then, I wouldn't be surprised if we went back in for him in the winter transfer window then depending on how Rose does
Agree with an earlier point about Seb in central midfield, it just doesnt work. I think people just want it to work as they like their fantasy line ups with him playing there but I was at the SOL for Morcombe and he doesnt look comfortable at all, we need to stick with Catts & Colback and have Seb as right wing comp for Johnson. Rose is a very good signing in my opinion, young, hungry and a point to prove. Also he has ability, which you would have seen when he played in the Olympics where I though he looked great, fast and good delivery into the box, especialyy against Brazil he stood out so could be a cracking addition. Jenas isnt the most exciting transfers but we could need him across the season and hes no worse than N'zonzi who a lot of people are wanting.
agreed about Rose, bit disappointed we have not got a top quality left back but I do think Rose is better than most think and will do a good job once given a run in the side
Poolie - Strinic's under study got injured which has resulted in the deal being blocked. Not sure where I heard this but it was a couple of days ago. I have no links sorry.
Knew he wasn't coming when he played last night, it does seem that the injury has furked us on this one.
