joeyt Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 yeah agger is absolutely class when fit but pretty sure he said he can no longer handle the intensity of the Premier League anymore. He might have just said that to get away from Brenda though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 We can't take any risks at all with this CB signing. Has to be cast-iron guaranteed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Bailey Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 We can't take any risks at all with this CB signing. Has to be cast-iron guaranteed. Yep and it is going to cost us. This can't be done on the cheap imo. Unless we unleash the Perez scout/scoutess/thing and he/ she comes up with a blinder... Otherwise get your cheque book out fatty and prepare to go large...and for once not on the fries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberts Mustache Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I want a young CB like Brooks or Robin Knoche, along with a real leader (No idea who atm. Kamal Glik, captain of Torino looks good). And equally important in my book - a proper DM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roger Kint Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Isn't that Balanta guy supposed quite highly rated? I am sure I read some articles about him a while ago. Tim Vickory absolutely loves him. Be a bit dubious about bringing in someone from Argentinian leagues to help in a relegation fight though. He does tick all our boxes mind, 8 months on contract, young and bound to increase in value. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a bit dubious about bringing in someone from Argentinian leagues to help in a relegation fight though. He does tick all our boxes mind, 8 months on contract, young and bound to increase in value. Relying on a kid fresh from Argentina would be absolute lunacy. River don't need to sell either since they shifted Funes Mori to Everton so he'd cost a premium. We should've had Xhaka from Basel. Some canny signings those. Was impressed with Xhaka watching Basel last season. His contract runs 'til 2019 btw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I recall in pre-season banging on that we should find a Serbian CB (mate/calming influence for Mitro). Tomovic is on Disco's list (out of contract at Fiorentia come June). My extensive research (ahem...) shows he looks a bit like Thauvin, wears Colback's number, has 'tackling' as a weakness (!) and likes to play short passes. That's good enough for me. Sold! Oh, hang on, he's 28...we'll never buy him. http://www.whoscored.com/Players/42860/Show/Nenad-Tomovic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altamullan Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Point taken, apologies chaps. I will try and refrain from my tendency towards not being 100% serious, or apply the Rainman/autistic spectrum literal correction to any future attempts at humour.
