joeyt Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Sommer Lovin We sure he's not from Greece? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Immediate thoughts were to see if he was any relation to ex-QPR 'keeper Juergen Sommer. Unfortunately turns out he isn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Presumably they'd be looking to sell-on Krul if they landed Sommer. In an ideal world no and he'd push Krul on to better performances but in the real world it would make him a lot more saleable if the replacement was already in house, especially with a WC summer ahead (not sure if Krul plays for NED). Buying replacements before we sell someone is almost never done by us though in case of insolvency. Lately he doesn't.. Edit: He's so far out of the picture currently that Van Gaal has only selected two goalkeepers for the friendlies v Japan and Colombia: Vorm and Cillessen. He has complained Zoet and Vermeer are both injured and Steekelenburg and Krul are out of form, so he's only gone with two. It's far from certain Timothy will even be in the WC squad as it stands.

Optimistic Nut Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Where did it come from that Ferguson didn't play anyway?

Guest Haris Vuckic Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 He can't get a start in a shit Championship team. To be fair I think he initially lost his place when jigsaw went mental and started playing 3 at the back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birmingham v Swansea C Doyle , J Spector, P Robinson, D Burn, C Reilly, M Hancox, P Caddis, T Adeyemi, C Burke, M Green, S Ferguson (A Shinnie, 83) Steve Howey told the Kinnear/Ferguson story about 3-4 weeks ago on Talksport Breakfast show so it's been doing the rounds. Strange that a number of papers went with it this weekend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Don't like him..... he leaves far too many holes defensively with how he positions himself and no coincidence how much Arsenal improved defensively once they dropped him. With that said he's still good enough for us, even if it is true which it most likely isn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
healthyaddiction Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Also not the sort of defender we need. He is much more in the Yanga-Mbiwa / Coloccini mold. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 If this has to go through Kinnear then we can't be hopeful. I think he'd do a good job though, and lets face it, Lukaku and Victor Moses went to clubs that will finish above us. Someone else's reserves is part of the new reality.

jdckelly Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/348768/Newcastle-eye-up-Arsenal-skipper-Thomas-Vermaelen he's been one of my biggest annoyances in recent times, when he first arrived he scored a few goals and as usual the braindead pundits equated that with being a good defender rather than looking at his actual ability to defend which is lacking.
