Roma were negotiating whilst we were celebrating (sleeping)Solbakken has agreed to join Roma for a small fee so we won't be getting him in. That is a shame as I thought he would have been excellent for us.

I know I agreed with before on this point but rewatching the highlights from today I would argue that Giakoumakis's two goals today were very important.I think we have the poacher you want already pal. GG. Mostly scores with one touch.
Could he be just trying to force himself a move away so that he can join us virgo?Not sure the Swedish LB guy looks like an Ange kind of player after blaming everybody in the press. Too outspoken methinks.
I think you're right Johnno. That's what I mean. He seems a bit loose lipped and easy to criticise his team mates. Not sure Ange will want that type in the dressing room.Could he be just trying to force himself a move away so that he can join us virgo?
Would put that down more so to agents using the media to try and force a move away for there player imo virgo.I think you're right Johnno. That's what I mean. He seems a bit loose lipped and easy to criticise his team mates. Not sure Ange will want that type in the dressing room.
Same problem with Julia who thinks it is ok to bleat to the press about not getting a game. Knock the managers door if you want but dont take it into the press. You are inviting trouble. Having just taken 1.5 million for hurting your knee and not kicking a ball for a year and a half....
Maybe it's just how it appears
Well he ain't much good for us thenThat LB from hammerby scored a peach of a free kick yesterday although still think the keeper shud be doing better not seen the guy play apart from the free kick
It will be interesting to see POD, but gut feeling is that they possibly might not be able to get to the required standard Ange is possibly going to be looking for now.Hopefully one of the young lads we signed last Summer and now out on loan will have a good pre season and make a breakthrough to the squad. Also Montgomery.
Good post JohnnoWould put that down more so to agents using the media to try and force a move away for there player imo virgo.
If Ange is interested in this LB then maybe he could be just showing just how much he would want to join us, a very big requirement in Ange book, and he would be joining a club, who's fanbase wouldn't tolerate any big mouth wanting to unsettle a changing room, and thankfully now we have a manager and a squad of players now who wouldn't tolerate that shite either now.
In Jules case, it was always going to be a guessing game about how he would recover from such an injury.
Also into the last year of his contract, so last chance saloon for him to gain a decent contract for himself and without any football of note behind him for a season and a half now.
For a player who was once, one of the automatic names on the team sheet to not being able to make the squad now, just says to me he isn't up to the required standard that Ange is looking for nowadays imo.
Going forward, I would be very surprised to get CCV on a permanent signing and was far from convincing in his interview on Saturday.
So could scales be developed into a potential left sided CB?
I certainly hope so and maybe pre season will give us that answer.
I know you wouldn't agree virgo but starfelt wouldn't concern me as a right sided CB and would definitely place him well ahead of Jules and Welsh in the position if CCV was no longer a option.
It still remains an area of your team that you don't like to change unless forced to, especially at our club where every game is a big game, yet the competition for a starting place is potentially still not strong enough imo currently.
So I think that there could be a need for potentially another 2 CB, especially if CCV isn't no longer an option, and of a higher standard than Jules and Welsh also.
If Jules is seeing things that way also, is it of any real surprise that he may be looking for a way out of the club, when trying to gain the safety of a new contract, while he has still got the chance to?
Who is the big centre back we have in the reserve squad who got a few games early last year. Big tall lad. Played along with Monte. I hope he gets a bit more exposure in the coming season.Hopefully one of the young lads we signed last Summer and now out on loan will have a good pre season and make a breakthrough to the squad.

Dane Murray, I think. Looked a decent prospect.Who is the big centre back we have in the reserve squad who got a few games early last year. Big tall lad. Played along with Monte. I hope he gets a bit more exposure in the coming season.
Think you might be thinking of Leo what's his name who moved on to Leeds virgoWho is the big centre back we have in the reserve squad who got a few games early last year. Big tall lad. Played along with Monte. I hope he gets a bit more exposure in the coming season.
Agreed POD, hope he can get a decent loan move next season and get a full season into him at a much higher level than lowland league football.Dane Murray, I think. Looked a decent prospect.
That's the one. Hope he gets to play pre season. I really like the look of him. He has attitude and strength to play AngeballDane Murray, I think. Looked a decent prospect.
Still think Jota might be a more realistic chance of signing imo virgo, but of course money will play its part, as usual in the current footballing marketI don't care about how good they were this season but I think CCV and Jota might be turning into this year's Eddie Howe.
