Taylor Swift Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Exactly If he signs and the title isn't changed then it obviously hasn't happened yet. I'm excited. Let's hope nothing comes in the way and we can complete the signing today. I'll be honest: I've actually been more worried about our LB situation than our ST situation because Ba is a serviceable striker, whereas playing without a natural LB leaves us completely unbalanced. Signing Santon enables us to have two natural FBs with him on the left and Simpson on the right, or him on the right and Ferguson on the left.

Revolution Number 9 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 What's with all the title change requests, man? You're in the thread, you know what's happening. Why does the title need to be changed?! http://images.memegenerator.net/instances/500x/9658171.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novocastrian Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 There's two types of 'right footed' though. 1. Predominately right footed and, 2. Left foot just for standing. I believe he falls into the former camp. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I especially don't get it when people seem to get genuinely radged about it. I'm not raged about it. I just thought saying he is having a medical in the thread title would separate this thread from the likes of Gervinho and Gameiro threads where it was just saying reports. It's now been confirmed he's having a medical. I imagine theirs plenty of people on this forum who won't be reading this thread because they see it as more false hope and complete bollocks.

Revolution Number 9 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Steady on, big lad. I never said you did. But we've seen many a 'thread title update ffs' on these boards in the last few weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 He has a chance to be better than Enrique. From what I've seen and the general reports, he's probably worse than Cissokho and Pieters at the moment, but the potential is massive: like many managers and coaches have said, he could be a Maldini/Zanetti type. He could end up being the best of the lot because the other two are about to enter their prime whereas this kid is still 20. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying, incase anyone thought I was getting my knickers in a twist. I hope I wasn't giving that impression, mainly because I don't wear knickers.

KaKa Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Still fully expect this to go tits up somehow. That's probably because you have deep seated emotional issues, and I suggest you seek psychological help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willow Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 From what I've seen in videos, he has excellent balance. He has a big presence for a young'un and I can see him developing into a cracking player. Time will tell but I'm glad we're even looking at him, letalone getting him (potentially) signed.

jimmymag Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Check out his clip playing for Inter v Spurs last year, he looks tricky but always cuts back onto his right peg. Looks like a good buy but probably more of a utility player, doesn't look the solution to our left back situation long term to me though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
