José Cañas Ruiz-Herrera

Can we have him in January and not June please Huw, Our midfield is in need of him!........

 

A spanner in the works may Betis' form so far. They won yesterday to put them 4th in La Liga (a Champions League spot). Will they sell a first teamer now, when they have the potential millions to gain if they stay 4th?

Back on ?,

 

A mention of yet another 18 month contract. Interesting

 

The 18 month contract is a bit strange,its hard not to think it ties in with the end of Laudrups contract

 

Exactly. That's twice in a week now. At least it does appear that in the negotiations with these players, Laudrup is obviously indicating that he intends to see out his contract

 

I dont think there is an issue with Luadrup seeing out his contract, if all ive heard and read about him holds up that wont be the problem. IMO we wont have a brenden situation where we will get payment and have him under contract as his stock rises, when Laudrup goes it will probably be clean and after his contract runs out, only he will know if he wants to stay on but so far it appears he is looking at 2yrs and no more ,thats my take on it anyway.

 

Well if we get him in on an 18 month contract, it gives us more cash then in the summer to bring in a top quality striker or another midfielder/defender that will improve the team rather than be a squad/rotational player.

 

...Which going by recent form will only be on a 12 month contract

 

And sell him for £20-£25 million in January
Hopefully we will get him on a permenant deal though. Could just be the missing link in our team.

 

Hardly, that article is 2 weeks old and has already been posted. The date still says 6/1/13!

Lots of Swansea fans asking about Jose Canas - tomorrow's papers.

 

Apparently because of kemmys injury we will be going in for him asap now.

 

Doesn't look like it.

Yet Laudrup, who saw a £800,000 offer for Canas turned down earlier this month, insists the injury blow will not force him into reviving a deal for the 25-year-old, who is available on a free transfer at the end of the season.

Laudrup said: “I don’t think so. We are talking five games, and we have the squad to cope for five games."

"If one or two injuries had changed everything that I don’t think we would have done our work properly with the squad. If it’s well done then, with three or four injuries, you should still have a competitive team. “If you lose three or four players in the same position it can be a problem, but this is not the case.”

1hour ago. Maybe I'm just wishing it to be true?

 

To be honest I wouldn't expect him to say any different even if we were in for him again. Sir Mike isnot going to show to be desperate to sign anyone, he's a cool customer who likes to be in control of the situation
