STM Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 That Rolan kid is so desperate to join us that it's taking him 2 weeks to write his name on a piece of paper for Fulham. Wonder if we will cave in and sign him or we are holding on for someone better/ better price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 He seems keen, even if it is just to help keep his place in the Uruguay squad for the World Cup, it'll benefit us for him to do well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Away Day Gadgie Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 There's something a bit bullshitty about this constant Rolan link. We were linked with him quite a few times while Carr was here and nothing materialised, i can't see Rafa thinking he's the type of player we need, especially now Carr has gone. Could be his agent feeding rumours to the press to try and drum up some Premier League interest in his guy? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sima Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Don't want Wilshere, his lifestyle outside of football is horrendous and can't have helped his rehabilitation time from his numerous injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 There will be a reason as to why none of the other 'top clubs' have gone in for him. I've heard he is a proper radge-packet as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-421 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 "But Clement and Swansea could face competition from West Ham United, who Wilshere is open to joining, and Newcastle United."

toontownman Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Ashley Young? Would certainly be an instant albeit very short term upgrade on Gouffran. Would fit the type of character and hard working player Rafa likes. Think his best days are far past though. Even for a year might be a risk. His professionalism and experience might be good to have in the squad. Especially a squad of young wingers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Wilshire is the biggest fraud. At least Cleverly accepted he was shite. Wilshire will forever maintain he's any good at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
U2 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Wilshere doesn't seem physical enough to be a Rafa player as a CM. I wonder if Rafa fancies him to play at #10, which is imo his best position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
