Babel to Hoffenheim too. What did he say? 'It was never gonna happen' in relation to the deal itself, to which he added: 'I think they just wanted some publicity'. I saw that. Just when i thought a good day couldn't get any better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleased he went to your lot over Chelsea, at least he's got a chance of getting some decent game time. I assume he won't be starting, but he'll be useful to come on, possibly also backup for VDV in that AMC role? I'm not going to lie, even if it is due to his contract running out, it's a painfully good deal. Well we're gonna stick with 4-4-1-1 so i'm guessing he's gonna rotate with Lennon for the right wing spot. A long shot would be him going to lm and Bale being played at lb but hopefully that doesn't happen. Tbh i'm just happy we have a player with good dribbling ability and pace to come in when things are not going well. Now hopefully Gio and Keane fuck off asap.

No one wants Gio permanently until they know he can walk past a nightclub (he cant), O'Hara needs to prove he's now fit, the worrying one is Keane.

Very unhappy at the moment, by all accounts. Glen Johnson and Warnock as your full backs, though, there's an awful lot of positional fuck ups waiting to happen there.

Kelly is arguably the best of the lot. Benitez the managerial genius decided that spending £16m on a right back, no better than a kid he had sitting in the reserves, was the key to the title though. Not that he wasted any money or anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Taiwo is an excellent fullback from what I have seen, brummie. Baba would be a good point of reference, but as far as I can remember he loves him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wants to stay in London, Fulham not showing much interest and Wham want him but don't want to pay £70kpw + £1m bonus for avoiding relegation. Keane also doesn't want to take a paycut if Wham do go down. Wouldn't surprise me if he's still in the stands at WHL in February. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
