Dokko Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Epic signing if this comes off. Case of when rather than if :crazy: I don't want to start dancing yet, football is a piss take, and nothing is certain until its signed, sealed and delivered. Really happy we've possibly got him and missed out on Woodgate now, probably around the same kind of quality, but he's less injury prone, younger and more agressive.

Fenham Mag Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Hopefully a signing of another current Argentine int'l will make us a more attractive proposition to other players we may be in for whereas we may not have been before. A bit of a signal of intent signing if you will. We need to sign another Brazilian 'g' otherwise they'll be ganging up on Cacapa. We protect our homies 'round here fo sho. Júlio Baptista?

Guest Alex20 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Great signing. Now the focus should be on our midfield, which I think lacks quite a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Anyone know why the club are being so vocal about this deal (releasing statements saying were in advance talks) yet have remained quiet on our other deals? Wishful thinking but maybe were pointing out to other targets were capable of bringing in real quality and our much publicised leaky defence has just recieved a major boost.

I think it is probably because the hoohah was causing too much distraction and it was out in the open anyhow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishful thinking but maybe were pointing out to other targets were capable of bringing in real quality and our much publicised leaky defence has just recieved a major boost. They didn't realise a statement as such, it's more a 'someone said to SSN' thing. All the official word has been from their side. I don't know how far back you've read but from the beginning this only really came out because the agent kicked off about it maybe falling through. He said we've been trying to do this deal for three months. Even after that all the talk was from the agent to Spanish newspapers, and Keegan's barely said a word about it.
