France had a keeper in the 80s called Dropsey!
Scuffit & Dropsey - sounds like a couple of dodgy used car salesmen...
There must surely be more inappropriately named footballers out there?

There is a belgian player called Mark De Man, usually plays in defence or defence midfield!
And the lastest from Eurosport....

I think the club have been looking for another keeper.

Italian Twitter Guy - who is generally spot on with his info - says that Battocchio is about to sign for Serie B team Entella. 
Was hoping we'd get in a 'home-grown' keeper for the bench so Bond could go out on loan - then it's pretty much 1 guaranteed home grown in each matchday squad we don't have to worry about.
As for Batto - would be a shame to lose him as he does seem to have great potential, but we seem to have a lot in midfield, and if it means someone like O'Nien gets more game time, then I think it would be ok to let him go. Although I would prefer that to be a loan too, to get him more game time! Surprised it would be Serie B though

Entella have only reached Serie B for this season for the first time. Cristiano Battochio would be a very good signing for them, perhaps too good. Like Ronnie Rosenthal when he came to Watford.

Hearing Cardiff have deals lined up for Reading's Sean Morrison and Joel Ekstrand of Watford.
Can't really see us selling him, unless it's for a good £3-5m. Think we should be ok in that area, with Hoban coming into the back 3

You'd think he would be first choice here so a key player to keep but it was rumoured he wasn't happy during the summer.
Mind you would moving to Cardiff help?
If it helps keep Deeney though..
They want a guy from Reading too (defender) - clearly not happy with their own lot?

He gave an interview recently where he stated very clearly he was happy at Watford
Buckley to Sunderland for 2.5 million seems likely - we will get a sell on fee of around 325k.
I can't see him going, especially as he is in the starting 11... But Cardiff have the money from Caulker so looking to replace, so may come in with an offer too good to refuse. Everyone has a price, but think it would still be quite high!

This has been on the cards , Its a big shame in years to come he could be winning full caps for Italy , cant we loan him to entella for a season ?
I don't care what what they want unless they change there name to " Swansea united" play in bright pink and give us 6m Joel is to good for them
