According to SSN he has told Celtic that he wants to leave and hasn't travelled to play in their champions league tie this week
I know what you mean musty, but Laudrup was one of the greatest if not the greatest midfielder ever to have played the game so it's understandable that he wants us to be heavy with talent in that area. We did sign Bartley the other day who I should imagine is a stand in for Chico/ Williams at least. I'll be surprised if Hernandez doesn't replace Sinclair who will be off.
Just saw this on the BEEB: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19316966 "Advanced discussions" underway apparently.
One thing for sure, there's going to be tremendous competition for places if this kid and Hernandez both sign. The quality and creativity of our midfield is taking a big jump. I have watched the high lights from my recording of the QPR game a number of times and each time get a deeper appreciation for the speed and problems caused by Routledge on Sat. He can be awkward and at times annoyingly so, but Sat he had a hand in just about every goal we scored. Just think, and no disrespect to Allen, but we've swapped out one player with modest creative impact for players plus cash that can really impact a game.
Do we think £6m is good business for KS-Y? Appreciate we have cash in the bank so prices are going to be inflated but the Scottish league is not the highest quality to me it seems a little inflated? I would imagine he'll come with a strong work ethic and give his all though. Time to now ship some out.
Its getting a very cosmopolitan look to the team, hopefully not to much that we lose our identity , where does this leaves Kemy in the pecking order ?
We now have a Centre Midfield of Leon,De Guzman, Kemmy, Michu, Ki, Gower....I would suggest Gower should move on if we get Ki. I like him, but we wont be needing him. Also who will start? Must be between Ki and De Guzman Gower, Lita, probably Monk will all move on....maybe Bessone.
Huw should give Rogers a ring and see if he wants to buy our surplus midfield for a bargain price. Shall we say 100 million for the lot? A snip for an entire Swanselona midfield
I hear Gower's of to Anfield, to show Gerrard how to hold on to the ball !!........................... please log in to view this image
Totally unrelated and fairly irrelevant but Josh McEachran has gone to Middlesbrough on a season-long loan.
Just watching the Helsingborgs V Celtic game and the commentator said "Celtic have lost a few good players. Ki Sung Yueng is on his way to Swansea as we speak".
Mc Eachran should have an amazing season with Boro , he might have had one for us if Sig never worked out so well . Good player !... Pretty excited with Ki . Also worried about where this all leave Agustien , quite a pass to Dyer for his first play of last game .
I'm worried about Kemy too - one of my favourites from day one. Robust and a great eye for a pass. We'll have to wait and see.
