Anyone else rekon this lad would be perfect in the middle for us? We certainly lack a big box to box player, someone who can put there foot in when its needed, pick up the ball from deep and run at teams and also grab a few goals. Its no secret that I think we should be after Moussa Sissikho but this lad is just as good IMO probably better in terms of grabbing goals as well as he certainly can hit We certainly lack a poor mans Yaya Toure in the CM and this lad would be that person, he is currently playing his football for FC Twente who are managed by former Boro boss Steve McClaren [video=youtube;wWKxiZ_Uyww]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWKxiZ_Uyww[/video]
Just tell him you're in the CL. Like most footballers he is not the brightest as proven by this recent story! http://soccernet.espn.go.com/blog/_/name/thetoepoke/id/900?cc=5739
I knew i had heard his name before, and i don;t even play football manager to rake up oblivious name.... It was the pony story....
Yes! he's a beast, still young and can make mistakes but other than that a very neat and tidy player who is both strong and powerful.
Didnt know of him Poolie, watching that though, he looks the business. Yet again mate, distant dream while MON is manager. We are more likely to sign Jenas.
Poolie stop it man - I keep wanting to watch these players you go on about but it keeps getting veto'd by the missus for ****ing Coronation Street and ****!!! Wonder if Martin will go abroad - financially it makes sense but players like Cabaye and Ben Arfa don't grow on trees - we might end up with another Fredgaard, Bellion or Hauser!!
haha sorry mate Well if it wasn't for Dnipro's left back getting injured we would of got Strinic in the summer instead of Rose so by thats MoN has not ruled out foreign players completely Fer would be a good signing for us I rekon, only 22 he is just going to get better, he is exactly the type of player we need and I rekon he would be available for 7-8m thats nothing for a good midfielder. If he settles which I think he would he would go on and be worth 20m being the type of player he is, if he didn't cut it I am sure we would make our money back. Its a risk buying from abroad but I think we watch foreign teams on a regular basis now did we back then when we got in Fredgaard and the others?
Rumour has it he only cost 7.5m, I think Colo is the last signing we made anywhere near the 10m mark at 9.1m
