Sunday people reporting a swap deal of Pilkington to Bolton in the exchange for Chung Yong Lee. As it's the people there's probably about 0% truth in it. If it was true though, what's people's thoughts on it?
not a bad player at all. quite similar to pilks - not sure i see the logic in bolton taking one of our injury-prone players in exchange for arguably their best though
No thanks, I'd to see us keep hold of Pilkington, hopefully he won't have trouble with injuries this season.
Also said to be interested in Laurent Cilan, a defender from Belgium, playing for Standard Liege. 28 year old. Chung-Lee translated means blue Dragon.
Gary O'Neil takes one for the team! [video=youtube;vCYClS77Qng]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCYClS77Qng&app=desktop[/video]
Players have to make these split second decisions. Fortunately for him, this one worked out OK. Well, except that it didn't, as he didn't get a new contract in the PL.
Looks like it Supers. I wonder if RvW signing off will allow City to pursue another defender now. The midfield is well stocked now with O'Neil arriving on top of the addition of Surman and Elliot Bennett returning fit and Wes looking good at ACM, not to mention the two Murphys as options. If Hooper stays, City have three solid strikers plus Redmond who has played up front in the pre-season. There is also the loan option, of course.
Good old Allerdyce. One lanky beanpole gets crocked, so the obvious thing to do is try and replace him with another: Thank christ I'm not a Wet Sham fan
To be fair, that's a much better purchase. Wickham deservedly received some plaudits for his late-season form, he's young and he's not got a bad injury history (as far as I am aware - I don't pay a lot of attention). He also fits in with big Sam's style.
You're just not playing the game here Rob! Stop being so reasonable. (But I have to say that I agree)
Well OK then, just do't let it happen again! Seriously, the Pink'un has now picked up the Laurent Ciman rumour. I wonder if there is anything in it? Be a good signing, IMO, especially as he can play at either CB (his main position) or RB. They've also picked up on the rumour about "young Gambian striker Modou Barrow who is operating in Swedish football with Ostersunds", so they may just be repeating rumours. I'd be happy with either or both of these!
Just seen on the EDP website - rumoured we're after Ciman from a CB from Standard Liege - http://www.edp24.co.uk/sport/norwic...andard_liege_defender_laurent_ciman_1_3712692. Great news if true!!
