Guest VegasToon Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Dunno if anyones mentioned this guy before in the thread but I see that Jimmy Bullard is having some contract probs at Fullham. Always thought he would be a favourite here and the way he's come back from that horrific injury is terrific. Love to see him signed. FUCK NO!!!

Optimistic Nut Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 He's not as s*** as people think He's an ok defender, but not worth £7m alone, nevermind £7m plus Given. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 He's not as s*** as people think He's an ok defender, but not worth £7m alone, nevermind £7m plus Given. £7m sounds ok to me to be honest. A lot better than Taylor and Faye Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest goal! Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Anyone else think Giles Barnes is worth signing whether we get a high profile/quality AM or not? Doesn't seem to be much mention of his name at all since the season finished and we were supposedly linked in Jan, know his serious injury last year didn't help. Young with plenty potential but much better than anything we've already got in midfield in the attacking sense. Shouldn't cost a shitload either and versatile, pacy, able to dribble and has an eye for goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 whoever we buy, they need to be big and strong. im sick of seeing us at set pieces - no threat in attack and easy pickings at the back. this is a physical league and its time to add some strength.

1878 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 £7m for Senderos Given himself is worth more than him, he's an oaf with a perma-confused look on his face. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think clubs have taken a step back from him since his injuries & he didn't stand out in many of the the Premier League games he played. Should get a 2nd wind in Championship.

Baggio Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Larsson must rise to the big challenges with Birmingham City Aug 4 2008 By Brian Dick Alex McLeish has urged Sebastian Larsson to put aside his thoughts of a move from St Andrew’s and concentrate on helping Birmingham City win promotion. After making his breakthrough last year with a string of outstanding performances and spectacular goals, the youngster also earned a call up for the Sweden squad for Euro 2008. His meteoric rise was capped when he appeared against champions Spain in the pool stages and all summer long he has been linked with a move away from the Midlands and a return to the Premier League. But despite rumoured interest from clubs like Blackburn Rovers and Newcastle United, who had a bid of £4.25 million rejected before the European Championships, Birmingham have not received a satisfactory offer. And with the Championship season due to start in five days’ McLeish needs one of his best players to have his mind on the job. “That’s life, sometimes a move works out for you and sometimes it doesn’t happen,” McLeish said. “You have to get on with things, I had 18 years at Aberdeen and every time my contract was up, I was supposed to be moving to other clubs like Tottenham. It never materialised but I was too good a professional to let it affect me and that’s what Larsson is. “We need to keep our best players here and Seb is in that category. He’s played in the Championship before so he knows what it’s all about. I’m sure every player here wants to play at the highest level possible but I want to manage at the highest level possible.” Larsson has scored twice in the last two games and created two against Leicester City last Tuesday. He also tapped in from close range at Walkers Stadium and rifled a late equaliser past Mark Schwarzer in Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Fulham to demonstrate that, unlike some of his other heralded team-mates, he is ready to hit the ground running when Sheffield United arrive this weekend. Much credit for his goal on Saturday was due to Cameron Jerome, the centre forward who has been forced to play in midfield because of the number of strikers in McLeish’s squad. A surging run along the left and well- placed pass across the Fulham box left Larsson with little option but to score. “Seb did Cameron’s run justice,” McLeish said. “Seb saw the situation well, he’s intelligent tactically. He plays with his heart and he gives you 90 minutes of sheer graft.” With Larsson’s future uncertain McLeish is hopeful of bringing in his former Arsenal colleague Quincy Owuse-Abeyie, probably this afternoon. The winger is on the brink of a season-long loan from Spartak Moscow, although there is still a small amount of red tape to be negotiated. “I would hope to wrap it up but we still have to get it over the line,” he said. “He’ll bring value to the squad.” http://www.birminghampost.net/midlands-birmingham-sport/west-midlands-sports/birmingham-city-fc/2008/08/04/larsson-must-rise-to-the-big-challenges-with-birmingham-city-65233-21459624/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Beye is our best defender so a RB is not as important as a LB but even then I thi k Enrique will come good and show some great form this season, now he is the new improved lighter version of himself.
