wrightstuff83 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I would like to throw in a wild card-Chris Brunt of West Brom-i havent seen anyone who can cross a ball like this lad for a long time. Holy fook no, he is brutal in the extreme! I'm from Northern Ireland and watch this man play live each home game for our wee country and he is the most frustraiting player in the team! Very on paced, cant tackle or beat a man, and his crossing is only good from dead balls, in normal play he struggles to beat the first man! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Parka Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Nasri has been pretty good in the last few months, scoring a few goals as well. We definately should be looking at him, considering Marseille aren't guarenteed Europe, yet. Murmurs of him heading to Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he has been linked with you for about a year now. Another quality young Frenchie is Yoann Gourcuff who doesn't get a look-in at Milan because of Kaka, is unsettled and now subject to a bid from Ajax. Remember seeing him play in the u20's Euro tournament, best player in the competition by quite a distance, haven't seen much of him for a while now though.

Guest nufc_geordie Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Switzerland striker Eren Derdiyok has said he would love to play with Michael Owen at Newcastle. (Daily Mirror) Newcastle boss Kevin Keegan is on red alert after Swiss striker Eren Derdiyok declared he wants to move to the Premier League - and team up with Michael Owen. Fc Basle's Derdiyok, 19, scored a stunner against England at Wembley in February. He said: "My dream is to play with Owen at Newcastle." From Wikipedia: Club career At 6ft 2in Derdiyok is a powerful striker who can also fill in a centre-back if needed. He is of Turkish descent so if he ever played in Turkey he would wear the name "Eren" on the back of his shirt instead of his surname. He started his career with Swiss minnows BSC Old Boys at the beginning of the 2005/06 season in which scored 10 goals in just 18 appearances. FC Basel noticed his goal scoring instinct and snapped him up in 2006 at the age of 18. In the 2006/07 season, Derdiyok was used as sub mainly a substitute, playing only one full game, and averaging a total of 220 play minutes that season. For Derdiyok, the 2007/08 season proved to be a lot more profitable and he received regular play time. On FC Basel's main squad, Derdiyok scored his first hat trick playing away against FC Thun on 2 March 2008. On 6 April 2008 he won the Swisscom Cup, his first title. [edit] International career [edit] Youth sides Eren Derdiyok has been a regular in the Swiss youth sides for the past few years, scoring seven goals in seven games for the Switzerland Under 19s and an even more impressive seven goals in five games for the Switzerland Under 21s. [edit] National team After impressing in the Swiss Super League for FC Basel and with the Switzerland Under 21 team, Derdiyok was called up and received his first cap for the Switzerland full team against England, in a game at Wembley, on February 6, 2008, at the age of 19. Having come on as a substitute at half time, it only took 12 minutes for Derdiyok to take an excellent early shot (his first), with which he scored. Anyone know anything about this guy?

madras Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I can tell you this 11 goals in 17 matches in the Brazilian league is exceptionell considering players scoring 20 in 48 matches go to Europe and score loads of goal in the spanish and italian league. Not going to say PL considering no brazilian striker has gone straight from Brazil to England however i would love to see Adriano if he could keeep his troubles away. don't read too much into his form recently in brazil as the main league finished in november and doesn't start till may. all he's played in has been the regional league.

It's still generally agreed by the ITK's that Eto'o is the preferred replacement for Berbatov with Villa being the next best thing. Still scary to think that Villa would cost very little more than Bent. Also seems like Aston Villa want Robinson, Kameni apparently at the medical and work permit stage.

ElDiablo Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Always thought Kameni was a bit dodgy, definately better than Robinson though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
