http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11712_6980248,00.html Seems like Pantsil is keeping his options open and advertising the fact he is a free agent? All the free agents this summer not knowing who to put their money on! This could be a long wait for us for signings? Unless we are buying?
He doesn't really seem the attacking right back we're looking for tbh. I'd rather take a chance on that Peltier lad from Huddersfield.
Emilio, do you think we actually need an attacking right back? It seems to me that our problem last year wasn't scoring goals but conceding them. It's true that Pantsil won't offer the same attacking instinct that Naughton did, but if we're getting goals from King, Gallagher, Vassell, and two/three strikers, does 4 or 5 from a right back really matter? I think part of the reson we played with a 3 man midfield last year was because Naughton and Cunnigham/PVA attacked so much, having a more solid, steady-eddie defensive full back like Pantsil could mean we can revert back to a 2 man midfield with two wingers and two strikers
I am sure that if we sign one or two of the big free agents the rest will follow, Just heard that around 140 prem league players set to be released including Viera, Kamara and Reo-Coker. Would be good to see the list in full?
Too quick Proud!! Some big names on there, Andy Reid, Meite from WBA, Gudjohnson. Don't think I have seen those on our board yet?
the 5th one down on the wigan list would be a good name for us to sign, probably as a goalkeeper if he is like his name sake.
I would go for Nigel Reo-Coker Wellens Reo-Coker King Thats does look strong. If we fail with Reo-Coker i would have Lee Bowyer instead
