I'm not sad about that one. Remember all those great Wigan centre backs when they were PL? Nope, me neither.
We need another left footed CB, but this guy has been injury prone. We can't afford to take risks on players given the couple of duds we've picked up this season. Worse case, we should just get Baby Ben back.
Personally i cant wait for tomorrow night, I really do believe we will party poop the great unveiling at OT of Mata. Just cant wait to hear Sticky Greens unbiased commentry !!
The one that got away - how hard did we try though? http://www1.skysports.com/football/...rgentina-international-striker-ignacio-scocco
Looks like it's all done now, but I just love the accuracy of the Beeb writers - look at the last paragraph.......... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25918618

Not sure on that one. It's hard to see where he'd fit in. Looks more and more as if OGS is going to play 442 or 4411, but nor sure we have the right midfield balance or strength for that. We desperately need to see some players shipped out so we can see the wood for the trees. looks more and more the end of the line for Mason.
Also on the official site. http://www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/news/article/deal-done-kenwyne-jones-1322247.aspx no piccy with the shirt though.
Perhaps they are not announcing the Zaha and Fabio deals until after tonight's game? Mancs don't want their own players booed for leaving with all the positive hype over Mata and Rooney maybe?
Another Norwegian connection. Played for Tromso for 3 years. A bloody giant at 6 ft 3 1/2 ins. Courtesy of Wiki: - "Kara joined Tromsø IL in February 2010 from the Diambars academy.Kara has got off to a good start in Tromsø, forming an impressive partnership with local youngster Ruben Yttergård Jenssen in the center of Tromsøs midfield. Comparison's were drawn between him and Patrick Viera due to his physical approach and dominance in the air. He has put in multiple man of the match performances leading him to be scouted by Arsenal FC only to fall to injury when the scouts arrived. His hard tackling, crazy hairstyles and aggressive behaviour leading him to becoming a fans favourite. He got his first goal against Aelesunds FK, after putting in a tackle just in front of his own goal he sprinted the length of the pitch to get on the end of a cross. Tromsø IL legend and ex-manager Steinar Nilsen has stated Kara to be the best combative midfielder he's seen let alone in Norway. Football pundit and ex-Arsenal defender Lee Dixon stated that Mbodj could well be the answer to both Arsenal's defensive frailties as well as their lack of strength in their midfield, touting Kara to partner Jack Wilshere in the centre of midfield for years to come. Rumour also has it that Liverpool FC and Club Brugge are also interested in the services of Kara." Must be tough though with Kara as a first name - bit like a boy named Sue, "how do you do - you gonna die!!!"
