johnnypd Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Iaquinta is unbelievably gash. He most certainly didn't used to be. Not seen him for a couple of season mind. Imagine that hot girlfriend from when you were 16, but now with 3 kids and wearing a dirty tracksuit. Giovinco would get eaten alive in this league. they'd have to catch him first. quick little bugger. same applied to aaron lennon, only 1 centimetre in it. also benefits from a low centre of gravity....obviously.

Guest JS Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Interesting stuff from Le Gossip (Though it is a few days old) A host of Ligue 1's biggest names have been linked with the EPL in recent weeks and none come much bigger than that of Montpellier's prolific striker Olivier Giroud. La Paillade have astounded French football pundits and followers with their strong form over the first half of the season and nobody has contributed more to that success than Giroud. The author of 13 league goals and five assists so far this campaign, the versatile front man's hot form has seen him attract the interest of a number of Europe's top clubs and Newcastle United in particular have been heavily linked with a bid for the marksman. Despite the intense speculation regarding his future, Giroud insists he is happy in France for the moment. Speaking of Newcastle's interest he said: "I am in good form and good physical condition so I am enjoying my football. It is normal to be linked with clubs when you are scoring goals. I like the EPL and Newcastle are a good club but at the moment I am thinking about putting Montpellier on the European map this year." according to rumours in France the club have also been running their eye over a number of other possible transfer targets. Struggling Auxerre's in-form and industrious creative midfielder Alain Traore and PSG's out-of-favour striker Mevlut Erding, whom the club courted in the summer, have been touted as possible targets and French media suggest that given their respective situations, both deals could be viable options. Finnally, one other player who has been casting glances towards England from the bottom of Ligue 1 is lowly Nice's talented attacking full-back Fabian Monzon. Despite only having joined the club in the summer, the Argentine has admitted to having a soft spot for EPL football and would be keen to test himself there in the future after an impressive showing in the first half of the French season, netting four times from defence. Speaking to L'Equipe recently he said: "I have always loved English football. But I am fine at Nice and I would like to help them avoid relegation."

gbandit Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 "The contract can't be changed, because before going to Betis I signed a contract for five years, and I have to respect it. I earn 2,000 pesos [€376], and from what has been spoken, they don't want to increase it, not even a little bit. But I will still stay at Boca." Luciano Fabián Monzón Legend, from his time at Boca. Supposedly he got paid a pittance while everyone else took home a packet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Sounds like the kind of player we would sign, has issues but also has talent. No one else will touch him so we will take a punt on him and hoepfully he will come good. Then we can flog him for twice pr three times his original price. Buy cheap, sell high.

NG32 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 He will be cheap and was highly thought of previously. We will be buying bargains and rejects in the hope to sell them on, thats where we are at. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 After the 15-page Prior thread, the news that the club are bringing this guy in on trial (with view to a permanent transfer) deserves it's own inquest and damning verdict on how the club are desperately trying to replace Carroll on the cheap. Dutch newspapers meanwhile confirm that Newcastle have attempted to bring teenage forward Jordan Botaka to Tyneside on trial from Belgian side Club Brugge. The Dutch-born 18 year-old was previously with Den Haag, Westlandia, Beveren, Lokeren and Anderlecht (which seems a lot for someone that age) and is yet to make a senor debut. Anyone got his twitter/facebook/lifestory? Plays up front.

Disco Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Could do a lot worse than replacing Jose with Luciano Monzón if the former does leave. Decent player. Not seen him in France but he was far more a going forward FB than a defensive one. Was pretty shoddy at defending while at Boca. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
