Guest Flatline Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Ewethorn used to be one of the first signings I made in Championship manager (before it became Football manager) and always banged in a load of goals for me. Think it would be a good move to get him on board even if it was just until the end of the season. Ah, that's nice to know Mike.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punk77 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 His statistics in Germany speaks for itself. If he can revive that form, he is an absolutely bargain. We're the reject team, so I fully believe that the club will make the best out of him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 And its Ewerthon, Ewerthon from Brazil, he's by far the greatest free , the world has ever seen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OoOGazOoO Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 This would be a very, very good signing. He is very quick. I remember when he was at Zaragoza with Milito upfront, those 2 were awesome together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Give the lad an 18month deal - suspect he'd not come here for 6 months. Where is the incentive for him, from that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Give the lad an 18month deal - suspect he'd not come here for 6 months. Where is the incentive for him, from that? Nah, six months to earn himself a proper contract. He'd likely be a starter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooneyToonArmy Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 This would be a very, very good signing. He is very quick. I remember when he was at Zaragoza with Milito upfront, those 2 were awesome together. were they relegated that season? I remember they had a few cracking players in their team the time they went down (like Aimar, Ayala, Oliveira etc....) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 well he's a grand old player to play for us he's a grand old player to support and if you've seen, his historeeewhichisaroundthemidnoughtiesera its enough to make your heart go wooooah oooaaah ooooaaaahhh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember they had a few cracking players in their team the time they went down (like Aimar, Ayala, Oliveira etc....) He was on loan that season IIRC, then went on to score 25+ goals for Zaragoza in our second division. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 A few of us mentioned him the other day so its great to see an actual basis behind it. He's by far the best free transfer out there and would improve us. Lets get this sorted in the next few days - its a no brainer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Probably, makes far too much sense, we should be going for a Boro reject who hasn't played all season, that is much more us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LooneyToonArmy Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I read on another Brazilian football forum that the reason Ewerton left was not all down to injury but also due to the fact that he couldn't link up well with their main striker Kleber....but he was decent there...1 goal every 3 games roughly including coming off the bench.

Guest Tdeans Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Just looking up Ewerthon on youtube and in 2009 and wot not seemed like a good player. Could do well as NUFC. Just hope we don't do a Pardew and give him a ridicously long contract - end of the season will do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LooneyToonArmy Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I`m assuming he`s got a Spanish passport from his time in Spain to bypass the usual non EU work permit isssue .....(he played 7 times for Brazil but that was a good while back) IIRC one of the reasons Zaragoza sold him is that he failed to get one and they needed his non-EU player roster spot for Suazo. that would be surprising considering it`s piss easy to get a Spanish passport for Latin American players (2 years residence IIRC) . He was there for 6 years ....but fair enough if what you say is correct. He went on loan to Stuttgart right after he accrued the mandatory two years, and wasn't able to start the process until he returned to Zaragoza (must reside in Spain, and I suspect that leave might have even "resetted" the clock - I'm not that familiar with the law). Also I suspect he was due a bonus if he achieved it (pretty common in Spain to pay a bonus to a player when he gets an EU passport) and Zaragoza don't have a pot to piss on. Found out he does indeed have a Spanish passport....at least according to his agent. "During his time with Dortmund and Zaragoza, a host of Premier League clubs were very keen to get him, but at that time he could not get a work permit and he did not have European citizenship. "Now that has changed and he is available on free transfer. He has many good options in England. "The player also has offers to return to Germany and Spain, but he didn't want to finish his career having not played in England and sees now as the ideal time to fulfil that. "He is keen to get the deal done, but there is not the urgency like some deals as he can sign outside the window." http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_6704074,00.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punk77 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Sign god damn it. We need him. Burn and Samba will destroy us with Loven and Ranger on top. We need a mobile and fast attacker that can stretch their defence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Well we won't be competing on wages, so hopefully he really fancies it here. No idea who he is or how good he is, but another body up front might be handy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose he managed to get one in the interim despite living in Brazil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
