Can you imagine if we ever signed someone with that name - would we be expecting a combination of Ravel and Payet with all the baggage that came with it??...
Risky game to play because if someone else snaps up Hogan and Defoe decides to stay…
He ald says Hogan is on standby, because Slav wants Defoe, and we feel there maybe some movement on that as the window moves on.
We should jump up a bit next year with 20K extra people at the game.
I would say around 13th is possible a way to go before we over take Spurs.
Lukerz - the only ITK worth (not) knowing.
Although, Ginge is only going to be a sub at Palace, given they have Tonks, Dann and Delaney.
Although, there is a rumour Spurs are looking to nip in last minute, after the Vertonghen injury.
Hell of a success rate ;whistle
I keep an eye on KUMB quite a lot, purely because of the two 'verified' ITK's they have who the entire forum respect. I repeat 'verified'. These aren't blokes who claim to be ITK and spout off anything, because the forum discourages that and has banned users who have been WUM ITK's. They are verified with the site management.
He's got more than 1 right, I can tell you.
But if you don't read the forum occasionally, you won't know. ;whistle
Which doesn't quite fit with the rumour elsewhere of Ginge to Palace ... because then we'd have .... 'only three senior central defenders'. ;puzzled
On the other end our defence is one of the leakiest around so you could argue having all those resources isn't actually working
I'm not saying Fonte wouldn't do that, or disparaging him in any way, because I think he would be an excellent signing and would strengthen our first XI immediately. I just think getting rid of Ginge to bring him in would be a huge mistake
However, verified by KUMB management means... what exactly? Who runs KUMB, Slaven Bilic? ;wink
On Fonte, I think he's a good defender but I would be surprised if it meant selling Collins. I think the idea must be to get Kouyate back into midfield instead, and have Collins as back-up ;hmm
Fonte is the exact sort of signing we should've made six months IMO.
In an ideal world, yes, but up until a month ago Saints were trying to get him to sign a new deal. Until he handed in his transfer request he didn't seem to be available to anyone other than the biggest clubs.
BFS brought character back into the squad. I feel like we are losing that foundation again, talented players but without a few rocks that keep the attitude together.
Nolan / Tomkins / Collins / Noble - Maybe not the most talented but you want them in the trenches.
But then, we have conceded an awful lot of goals this season, so I'm a bit ;hmm
But IMO not at the expense of letting Ginge go ;ok
I'm worried we're going to lose Oxford to someone promising him game time though. How much has he played this season? 1 game?
