What about Mahmoud Moneim?

Always rated him.

What about Mahmoud Moneim?

Always rated him.

He'd cost at least 500k, way out of our price range.

No idea, he's back in the first team here but then it was rumoured he wasn't seeing eye to eye with SB. If you bid a decent amount he'd probably leave and we have Bruce and Maguire waiting in the wings.

I honesty can't see anything in it unless Davies pushes it through. He gave a pretty frank interview saying he was happy at the moment and was getting enough game time.

Qpr wont pay his wages

Any news on Maloney?

 

[Amin Arrears]

What about him?

He'd be a good fit, young, Egyptian and scores goals.

He sounds like, from all I can find in Wiki and King Fut, a version of Sone Aluko, everything else attacking, but not a striker. But (just found) this probably makes it a non-starter, although not impossible - if we want someone who seems to be a trouble causer:

Egyptian international youngster Mahmoud Adel-Moneim ‘Kahraba’ has joined Zamalek from ENPPI on a reported 6.5 million EGP deal.
Newly-crowned 2014/15 Egyptian Premier League champions Zamalek have started preparing to hold tight to their league title next season by signing the 21-year-old attacking midfielder, as the Whites look to boost their attacking options and strengthen their squad.
The highly-rated player has officially put pen to paper to join Zamalek from ENPPI on a five-year deal for a reported transfer fee of 6.5 million EGP (approximately €750,000).
Kahraba was sent out on a season loan by the Petroleum side to the Swiss team FC Luzern followed by a six-month loan to Grasshoppers. The young Pharaoh, however, failed to impress abroad as he had many disputes with both clubs’ managements. As a result, he returned back to ENPPI during January 2015 transfer window.
The right-footed superstar has managed to score 9 goals in 27 appearances in the Swiss Super League. He then scored six further goals in 17 Egyptian Premier League games since his return to ENPPI last January.
The 21-year-old attacking midfielder led Egypt’s Olympic team on Saturday to seal qualification to the African U-23 Championship after scoring a brace against Uganda in the second leg.
It is also worth noting that Kahraba has five international games with Egypt’s National team to his name, with the latest being the 2017 African Cup of Nations qualifiers match against Tanzania.
Kahraba is Zamalek’s fourth signing of the summer transfer window, following the signings of Arab Contractors duo Mohamed Salem and Sherif Alaa, in addition to Haras El-Hodood’s striker Ahmed Hassan Mekki. The electric forward will wear the number 11 with the Whites.

Having his medical today, should be announced later today or tomorrow.

I didn't realise he just signed for Zamalek. Guess that's a non starter then. Shame because he's quality.

He was certainly an interesting heads-up; I don't normally respond to your fishing expeditions, but as this was a clear cut name you made me think again about him; thanks.

The short list must now be incredibly short!

Assuming there is a list of course, maybe they just look on here to see who we are talking about

 

[Tuckin]

Sign Hightower to get on the end of our crosses and stick Jones in the crowd with a megaphone to make some atmosphere.

As long as we don't sign Tackleberry - the one person in the world who makes worse decisions than Aluko about when to shoot.

Bring in Hooks as our combative midfielder (gets steamrollered for the first half and then sent off early in the second half).

My theory ( nice of you to call it that Peter), was to debunk the shaky analogy between real estate and footballers general trajectory in their values.
The upward trend in footballers asset value is limited. Real estate is generally not - except for war, insurrection, natural disasters or financial meltdown etc - Wall St crash, sub-prime shenanigans and other such rarities. Presumably the Mablethorpe example you give is due to a severe economic downturn in the area ? Footballers always end up valueless. SydneyTiger seemed to be the one with an ardent generalization. My theory substantiates both the general situation, and more specifically the one City are facing as we speak. Plus he suggested selling a house first before signing on the dotted line for the purchase of another was necessary.That is far from the truth. In fact it's a superb strategy if you have access to credit & wish to make a fortune. Even buying up Mablethorpe properties will be an opportunity for some smart businessman/corporation with foresight and a decent time-horizon I suspect.

PS. Cue Cambtiger...

Sorry - got bored and went to bed.
