Guest Recoba Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Childishness aside... Didn't one of the local hacks deny interest in the Banguras yesterday? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxfree Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Basically all of the mentioned stuff in todays articles have been more or less played down. No interest in the Bangura's. Jonás not for sale as such. Erdinc still possible, but we may have a new target. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Can't remember us being linked with Bryan Ruiz? Given the interview was from a French website it'd explain why there's more talk of French clubs I'd imagine... http://www.topmercato.com/33068,1/info-tm-un-goleador-du-costa-rica-vers-la-ligue-1.html A number of clubs have been mentioned, Benfica, Newcastle, but equally from French clubs such as Rennes and Lille in particular... Yes amongst others (laughs). I am flattered that these clubs have shown an interest in me. I don't have a preferred league. I know about Rennes & Lille as it's not the first time these have wanted me. They're both big clubs. Lille are in the Champions League and Rennes is a solid club in Ligue 1. I wouldn't close the door on anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Bryan Ruiz is a great player. Would certainly fit the idea of playing 4-3-3. His style would suit just about every other league before the Prem, mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Really wouldn't surprise me if we're after him actually, considering our scouting in Holland, need for forwards and past negotiations with Twente. Both clubs follow a similar policy of cash upfront and ruthlessly disclosing transfer fees, too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Would you prefer him to Erdinç? Haven't seen anywhere near as much of Erding as I have Ruiz, so dunno really. Ruiz is more of a withdrawn forward, complete footballer type who can play wide or behind the striker aswell as up top. He's a bit languid and skinny, but elegant and a very nice player to watch. I do have my doubts how he'd do in England though, don't think he's the banker in this league that Suarez was always gonna be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Aye, he's had criticism for that in the past. Twente is a really good hunting ground for players though. Douglas, Chadli, De Jong and Ruiz I'd take here for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 They'd want decent dollar for Ruiz though I'd have thought. Not sure how he'd cope with the Prem but he is a definitely a talent. Been impressed with what I've seen of De Jong, his namesake at Ajax is supposed to be class too. Potential for a bit of upheaval at Twente too since the gaffer fucked off to chase oil although they probably don't need the money so much as other Dutch clubs.

Could get Ruiz for about £10 million I reckon. Twente do sell their players for profits but they have a habbit of not getting as much as they should do. (Tioté case in point, Janssen to Ajax the other week, Elia too I think went for not much) They are a very well ran club though, proper settled at board level, always have replacements lined up when players/managers leave.

Not just namesake mate, Siem and Luuk are brothers. I'd take both of them here think Siem will probably have the bigger career with Luuk bouncing around Holland and playing for Switzerland.

Disco Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Ha, never knew that. Could be the new 'de Boers'. Holland have capped them both like, not sure whether Luuk's was competitive though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
