LUE reporting the Ozan reports from Turkey are false.

The news of OZAN TUFAN, his former student, who was on the agenda before and wanted very much in SENOL GÜNEŞ, is not true right now.. OZAN; He is happy in ENGLAND and does not think of leaving.

My translation differed slightly but I'll go with yours all day:emoticon-0148-yes:

For the record,mine was..."Tubby,Toofat,Tufan returns to Turkey for another cheap gastric band op,the first attempt clearly failed"..
 
Sinik is back. Time will tell if he stays but it's more to do with how Sinik settled and his dynamic with Tufan than footballing reasons if rumours are to be be believed.

We took punts on Salah, Vale and Pelkas - all are loans, 2 went back in Jan and our liability on Pelkas was limited to a year.

Were apparently running a top 10 wage bill (direct QUOTE from Tan today says 'top 8 exuding relegated clubs') and I reiterate that had the league started when Rosey came in we'd have finished 10th - which is par under the current coach.

This suggests that players not having a clue what Shota wanted has been more of an issue than recruitment.

We had enough central midfielders to field an entire starting 11 made up purely of central midfielders. Meanwhile we had no proper left back, no wingers, and a totally unbalanced and lightweight central midfield no matter which of the 11 of them you picked.

It was poor.
 
If the left backs going to be manning, you’d think he’d be here by now. He’s a free transfer and pre season has started

An ex colleague of mine, Swansea season ticket holder, emailed me the following:

'Who knows what will happen next season and the owners usually sell so watch out for Grimes and Piroe. Manning was out of contract and will go where the money is.'

No club gets every window a 100% success rate. If you think we were profligate then perhaps you should take a look at other clubs budgets vs form.

We finished the season on par under the new coach. That's neither extraordinarily good or extraordinary bad. Disastrous is a massive overstatement IMHO, but of course there's always room for improvement at every club.

Our recruitment last summer was like 3.6 roentgen.

Sinik is back in town.

If Sinik is back in for training on a long term basis with us, then City would sorted out a decent residential acommodation solution for him, If he is back in the Hilton Hotel again, this looks like a short term visit and then a probable loan / sale to a Turkish side?
