Guest hikickry Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 god, this did come from nowhere. Im glad with how we are conducting business, the papers didnt even have a sniff with this one. It means that we really wont know who else is coming in, probs not anyone weve been linked with, except maybe the gonzales loan deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After getting done over by Spurs publicly twice, you can see why some deals are done on the hush. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Depor_Fan Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Well I'm over you guys getting Xisco now. He's an up and coming striker, not the finished article yet guys. Be patient with him. I have a suggestion for a crowd chant you can do for him: a chant to the tune of lola by the kinks. Here is why: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQzppetrpEw&NR=1 An advert he did with Lafita for Coca-cola. This is just the making of video. The finished article is also on there. Btw...I love this emoticon: :colo: EDIT: To do have something to wear to mimick the appearance of Xisco like you've been doing with Colo and guitterez, you can wear a white head band. He wore one for sveral matches because he felt it brought him luck - he scored a hattrick wearing it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Depor_Fan Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Here's the complete advert. I hope very much you make a crowd chant for him to this tune too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAkVJKCWXUU and here's a pic of him wearing his lucky white head band, something you guys can mimick in the crowd. http://www.deportivo-la-coruna.com/pics/regular/Xisco_075.jpg Take care, guys. And be patient with him. Forza Depor! :colo: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guinness Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Exciting stuff, hopefully this goes through along with Gonzalez and a deal for a left back. A replacement for Milner would be nice too, hope we're in for a busy day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Sounds a good prospect from what I've read, but never seen him play. How would pronounce that in English? Would it be 'jisco' like 'xavi' or 'cisco' or 'hisco'? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Depor_Fan Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Do you guys think he will get much playing time? What with Martins, Viduca, ameobi and Owen at the club? Sure 2 of them are innjured, but when they return? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure 2 of them are innjured, but when they return? Ameobi is absolute shite, so Xisco will walk in ahead of him, and Viduka will get injured again 2 games after coming back, so he's moved up one place there.

Sure 2 of them are innjured, but when they return? Thing is, at least two of Viduka, Owen, Martins and Ameobi are always injured at any one time. And hopefully we'll manage to offload Shola and/or Smith very shortly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure 2 of them are innjured, but when they return? I expect Ameobi to leave today. Viduka will probably leave next summer (his contract expires and I doubt he'll get a new one), and if Owen doesn't sign his new contract offer then so will he.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Xisco looks like quite a tough player by those photos on the Depor site, what is his playing style like? Any players we'd know about he can be compared to? Looks harder with the skinhead than the headband like, needs to bring that back (i.e. do the 'reverse Bentley').
