Optimistic Nut Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Saudi Arabia striker Yasser Al Qahtani claimed last week to have turned down an approach from Manchester City. But former City keeper John Burridge, working as a TV analyst in the Middle East, has a somewhat different take on proceedings. He said: "Al Qahtani flew into Manchester with a huge entourage. He arrived at the City training ground like a prince and when he took part in his first training session, the members of his entourage lined the length of the touchline cheering his every move. "When he got the ball, Richard Dunne smacked Al Qahtani with a good old-fashioned 'welcome' tackle, and he fell on to the ground like a bag of chips. "He started rolling around, squealing and had to be carried off the field. Then he started crying." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainhaircut Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I'm really surprised a Premier League club hasn't taken a gamble on Zoltan Gera yet. He's out of contract in the summer. He always reminded me a little of Nobby, slightly less talented but physically superior. Would be a good option for every team outside the top 4 for me.

How´s he been since relegating out of the Prem? I wouldn´t mind us making a move for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrette Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 He'll probably want to stick with West Brom for now, but if they don't get promoted I'd be surprised to not see him off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Yasser Al Qahtani during his one day trial... http://photos-c.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sctm/v173/43/70/597129731/n597129731_219186_3625.jpg ...and this is what he said to provoke that comment.... "I had a successful trial with Manchester City and I was given great praise from everyone there including coach Sven-Goran Eriksson," said Al Qahtani. "We had reached an agreement but there were some issues in the contract that were not resolved. "However, the reason I rejected the offer was not due to financial reasons but because I feel Al Hilal need me too much this season." Al Qahtani stressed he still has ambitions to play in Europe in the near future. He added: "I'm still looking to play in Europe and the situation could be different at the start of next season. "I still have some offers and I will discuss them with the administration and I'm sure that I can succeed in Europe." Uh huh... Pretty funny. But the Prince of Dubai or someone like that (kerching tbh) was behind him getting a kick here and was at our game vs Spuds...gutted it didnt work out. In other slightly less hilarious news, Nashat Akram's official website says he's signed for us. Says he'll be unveiled on the 10th - I hope the delay means theres going to be another mass press conference like there was with Corluka/Garrido/Bojinov/Elano way back when Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thespence Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Middlesbrough are preparing to pay a club record £12million for Dutch-based Brazil striker Afonso Alves. Chairman Steve Gibson and manager Gareth Southgate met the Heerenveen player's representatives on Teesside yesterday in a bid to beat Manchester City and AZ Alkmaar to the 26-year-old's signature. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/sport/football.html?in_article_id=506709&in_page_id=1779 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
