Bloody hell. Players turining donw top clubs round Europe for us left right and centre at the minute. If ture.
Aye Cest. I wish I knew who any of these players were. I cant get excited about something i know nothing of.
Liverpool were linked with him in Jan http://www1.skysports.com/football/...Liverpool-are-first-option-for-Modibo-Diakite
Everyone seems to be getting hard ons over a load of names that the majority have never heard of just becasue they are foreign players? What if they are all foreign Milton Nunez's? I just wish we were seriously linked with some bugger I've at least heard of.

Trust me he's not just another unknown name. He's a big coup for us. He's been a top player in Italy for a while now !
lots of home work to be done by some on here i think , if you know your football ,like others obviously do, rejoice
I'm just glad there are some more enlightened members on here who seem to know what they are talking about when it comes to these foreign players.

I will join the list of those who has not heard of this lad BUT he is a defender and must be better than Titus, so I'm happy!!!! Also if Poolie says he is good then that will do for me!!
not sure how a fee can be agreed, the lad is out of contract seems as though we have already replaced Killa and Bramble with Diakite and Roberge. I really hope we see a young classy CB still who will walk straight into the side and be first choice, Toby Alderweireld would do nicely. as for the two French guys well I have not seen them play live from clips Roberge looks pretty composed on the ball and that is something we are not used to from our centre back, he also seems to read the game well his only weakness seems to be his lack of pace and as for Diakite he seems the opposite, big, powerful centre half who is not the slowest but not the best on the ball. If he can play a ten yarded pass to the full back or defensive mid then thats good enough.
I'm actually quite pleased that I don't know their names, simply because well known players tend to bring the inflated egos with them..As long as they are committed and improve our team I will be happy..
