Seems like a Scullion with an end product! Not sure about some of the defending - is it Adalberto making them look bad or are they just inept sometimes! Can't wait for the someone in the 1881 club to start, "Give us an A, give us a D etc...", it'll take up to half time to finish.....
An interesting article about how things work and why we jumped in now. http://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sport/14246073.Dowling_lifts_lid_on_Doucoure_and_Penaranda_deals/
Yes they were different times. We were essentially a bottom two division club at the time, early into our GT 'journey'. I remember when that announcement was made thinking 'wow' myself, and what a great player he was as well.
Am i reading the Penaranda deal right, He did not want to come to us so we have loaned him out for 18 months of a 4 and 1/2 year contract ,So if one of the big clubs come calling then they will have to pay large money . i would have liked to have him in the summer but as deal between the clubs can be at any time .
No.... Not at all, Dowling is saying all the power is with the player and players who come are convinced its the right thing to do.
The bit i was worried about was the 18 months loan . Did we think he is not ready in the next season or was it the player and his agents not want him to come to us . As they want to play for the big 10 clubs of Europe ?.The thing our owners have over other EPL clubs, is we can bring in players that can prove themselves in Spain or Italy before they come to us or the other way round .
Nah it'll be a work permit issue, he needs to play more international games first. Who knows what'll happen when the Tories drag us out of Europe...Not looking forward to watching Scottish and Welsh players...
He's Venezuelan so will already be on a Spanish or Italian passport no doubt......I'm just hoping the only sensible political party in the UK kicks out all socialists and communists as soon as possible so we can get back to being great again instead of a bunch of soft touches.....
Typical Tory nonsense . Very pleased with the transfer window signings ...glad we have retained all of our decent players ...including the likes of Anya , Paredes and Holebas .
QFS said that both the loan players will be with us pre season training trying to be part of the the new season .
Indeed keep the politics out.. No idea why someone started bringing the conservative party into this discussion but I can but react to that nonsense. As for "typical tory nonsense" check the guys passport, it's how all Venezuelans work Europe, through second nationalities by ancestry....
I was reacting to your reaction ... . As a side note ...I wonder if the Pozzos will purchase one or two more clubs further down the line . If this happens , Watford could end up buying loads of players who never actually play for the club , as occurs at Udinese .
Any change of a link for that? Cheers. From what others have said and links etc, seems like complex deals but both in line for next season to be in the squad, can only be good news. also must mean QSF wants to stay another year.
