Whom our ex manager was roundly ****ed for trying to sign on a free two seasons ago?

I assume that when Zola gets him in it will somehow be part of the masterplan?

Would it be at all possible for us to pay a player such as Luca Toni the cost of him terminating his contract at Bayern (which I can imagine is a sizeable fee) thus making him a free agent and allowing us to sign the player.

It also means that we are technically paying a transfer fee but in a different sense, through terminating his contract.

Luca Toni wouldn't touch us with a barge pole.

Can't believe people would think Luca Toni would even think of joining us at this point, unless we offered him twenty times the wages we offering now. Also if he is coming for money I'd imagine Hull would offer him a sackful.

Toni used to watch games from the old North bank when he was a lad, everyone knows that.

No, it wouldn't be possible.
