Dodgy Google Translate post (from Canal+ presenter in Poland) - Hull City want to take Nikolic , whose style on the islands ' Hungarian razor to score goals . " Ready to give 3-4 million pounds.


Using that accurate scouting tool YouTube, this lad looks OK. I am a fan of Eastern European players, they generally have aggression and drive, plus standard liege play decent quality football.
 
Why all the rumours about overseas players? who is doing the scouting out there? why is Ehab even looking for players if he intends to sell the club in a few days / sept?

We don't have a good record with foreign buys no matter how good the stats.

Prossy = ****e
Diomande = injured
Abel = a year to acclimatise, learn the english way of playing, learn the language

Why can't we find someone playing here already, not injured and not ****?

We could have gone for Forestieri/Hendrick players like that who would adapt well to the Prem instead will be scraping about for 37 year olds who nobody wants and Yaya Banana from Yakherd Kazhakhoutpost it's beyond a farce really. I might take a year out and come back for the Championship next season.

Is that a direct quote from Abel? Even if so it doesn't suggest he'd want to go there, only that he is sure they'd call him, I still choose to hold into hope that he'd not drop a div

It's part of an interview he's done with Marca in Urugauy and the comment is probably more accurately as 'I would not think twice', in other parts of the interview he says we have no manager, no team and he's concerned for the future.

Because a) most of the British talent in the Premier League is out of our price range, b) we've signed plenty of British players in the last 2 years and c) just as there's no guarantee a foreign player will be suited to English football, there's just as much chance they'll do very well.

If every other club can sign players from abroad without a struggle, then the problem isn't these players, it's us. Aside from Diomande, Jak and Abel, every player we have had played in England before we signed them. We've done well in the home market, but it's been pretty expensive. Abel aside, our foreign imports have been inexpensive and therefore less of a risk. Given our budget, the foreign market is probably our only chance of signing players.

Well in that case. Double ****. Just when you think things can't get worse, more **** at the bottom of the ****ter pops into view.

It would be great to have a budget atm.
 
Villa's owner just said this on twitter about Abel Hernandez:

Dr. Tony Xia Retweeted Aidan Shanley

Unfortunately he doesn't have release clause and they don't have a manager!So don't shoutout...

This just brings it all home.. "A club in a world of trouble, not sure who the new manager is, not sure if they've got enough players to even field a starting 11"

How embarrassing.. come Saturday when we're being watched by millions around the world, everyone is going to know what a shambles our club is right now..

Robbie Savage - "Leicester should go to Hull and win about 0-6"

He's a cock but is he right?

Yea he's a right cock.

Never like to see the team get a right good tonking, but it may be just what is needed to show just where we are right now. Hopefully a catalyst to move forward.

Not sure, if we can scrape together a team, those players will play well. There is a chance someone could still come in for them. They will play well for a few weeks. Think it will take a couple of weeks before the rot starts to effect the team.
