Re: Summer Transfer Rumour Thread '09
Am i right in saying that Neill can still sign after the deadline being a free agent....?
Also I know this will not go down well but for me Faubert has made RB his own and Neill would do well to be anything more than back-up now.
Would still like to see him back though.

Forget about Chamakh. We're making an offer for a Spanish based Giant tomorrow and Nani is back in Italy for a Rome based striker.student_hammer wrote:so essentially
Out: Spector 2m, Collins 5m and Savio loan
In: Chamakh 7m and Manuel da Costa loan
That all seems to work out nicely, albeit a little light on the flanks - if only there was a proven prem full back, who could cover at centre back who was available on a free

LAZIO:
Julio Cruz
Tommaso Rocchi
Simone Del Nero
Mauro Zarate
ROMA:
Jeremy Menez
Francesco Totti
Mirko Vucinic
Stefano Okaka Chuka
Mauro Esposito
Zarate seems most likely to me if what you're saying is accurate NSD...

It's in the public domain anyway. We'll be making an offer for Zigic and Nani is in Italy trying to sign Pandev and Oddo.
Re: Summer Transfer Rumour Thread '09
Sapnish based giant could only have been Zigic. :lol:
Think I would prefer Pandev though.
And would Oddo would be good competition for Faubert.

Re: Summer Transfer Rumour Thread '09
Oh I thought you meant a giant as in reputation, e.g. Raul, Van Nistelrooy etc. Boo hoo.
Every time I've seen Zigic he's looked a donkey.
EDIT. Just done some research and he got 13 in 19 last season..
Pandev would be lovely.. Trap won't be happy though. He's a deep lying striker.

Re: Summer Transfer Rumour Thread '09
From Valencia.. isnt he like 6ft 8 or something ridiculous like that>??
He cant even be 30 yet and went for like £15m IIRC when he went there how would we afford him unless its another loan?
Is Pandev not more of a "forward" in the Diamanti mould than CC type player/striker?
Edit.. Pandev 1 in 3 for Lazio over 150 games.... :shock: hope we get him.

Re: Summer Transfer Rumour Thread '09
Zigic would be more what we need than Pandev, although Pandev's obviously a much better player. The Zigic move would make sense for all parties and I'd be happy with our summer dealings if we got him in and nobody else. Although the probability is we'll have to let one of the defenders go to finance it. If Davenport hadn't been stabbed, we probably wouldn't have needed any more cover. As it is... well, a lot depends on how close N'Gala and Spence are to first team football.

Is there a chance that both Pandev and Zigic will be signed or will it only be one of them ?NEVERSAYDIE wrote:It's in the public domain anyway. We'll be making an offer for Zigic and Nani is in Italy trying to sign Pandev and Oddo.
Different types of players, would possibly make a great attacking partnership

It'll only be one of them if any, basically the best deal we can get.BLT319 wrote:dont worry dux went to spain to get zigic..so it wont happen....hopefully nani comes back succesful...would be absolutely fantastic.

I dont think Zola would have played Dav even if he hadnt been stabbed.. Spence is closest to the first team and the fact he is on loan to Scunthorpe indicates he isnt really in the first team plans right now..
If we lose Collins or Upson for whatever reason CB cover is a must.. but as already mentioned we could prob do worse than bring Neill back in.

Re: Summer Transfer Rumour Thread '09
One if any, depends on the best deal for us. We're still looking for a younger striker as well, not a youth player but someone with a bit of experience.Rocky_Balboa wrote:

Re: Summer Transfer Rumour Thread '09
Little bit of information that might make the Zigic deal more likely. Venezuelan player they've got there called Miku scored a hat-trick in the Europa league the other night, and has probably jumped over Zigic in the pecking order in the process. With Valencia's financial problems, I think they're running as small a squad as possible, so will probably only want to keep one replacement for Villa. If they choose Miku over Zigic, he may very well be available. And as that's probably only been the case since Thursday, if we get in there early with an offer, we may stand a very good chance, and may get him for slightly less than he's worth. Whether that happens or not, I wouldn't be surprised to see him move in the next couple of days.

Why do you say that? Because of their reported bust-up?Big_Russ wrote: I dont think Zola would have played Dav even if he hadnt been stabbed..
I think he would have been fourth choice if Collins went, but may well have got a few run-outs.

Pandev without doubt. Automatic 1st teamer. Zigic would be more of a back-up for CC in my opinion.NunoB wrote:
