The Cat Posted 21 July, 2011 Share Posted 21 July, 2011 120 is the top of the guidelines for League One players (although they are flexible). The two players above him (with ratings just over the top of the League One guidelines) were Guly do Prado (as rated by the Cesena researcher) and Joe Lewis, who probably does need to come down. And what did Lallana and Fonte have? The Southampton researcher is clearly not doing his job properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasgow_Saint Posted 21 July, 2011 Share Posted 21 July, 2011 A current ability of 120 in League One is extremely good. Made him the joint 3rd best player in League One in FM version 11.3 hahahahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skintsaint Posted 21 July, 2011 Share Posted 21 July, 2011 Tunisians and Football Manager...what a combination. Maybe Jaidi said this guy would do us a job and recommended him. Maybe we have good Swiss connections these days? Even so looks good (but every player does on Youtube - expect that Sunderland centreback). As long as the fee isn't over the top wouldnt grumble at this one - plenty of European experiance, International experiance and we are signing him in the 2nd division. Good stuff.

stevy777_x Posted 21 July, 2011 Share Posted 21 July, 2011 Right i ve looking through the Tunisian forums (yes, i speak french). Appararently Ammar Jemal wants to leave the Young Boys. He refused to come back for training beginning of july. Stoke Brest, Caen and Saints have been interested in him. Stoke might be out of the race now as they have just signed Woodgate. Ammar can play in the center of defense and left back. He is left footed and lauded as very strong physically so wouldn't have a lot of trouble adapting to the english game. Has also got a decent left peg on him. He is considered as the future of the Tunisian national team and is one of their best players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether a rehash of the 18th or not, this sounds like a real possibility in so many ways, and a rumour picked up from Tunisia will not have been placed in some hope of us finding it.

Sounds a promising player and seems to be the exact age that we are looking for. Anyone get the feeling we are building a team that will be together for a while?

S-Clarke Posted 21 July, 2011 Share Posted 21 July, 2011 He does sound very promising. It's exactly the sort of signings we make too, totally out of the blue and not expected. Exactly the sort of CB we need to....sounds like a younger Jaidi, and is left footed. So ticks every single box for me. Sort of fits in with what the our new scout said a few months ago.

stevy777_x Posted 22 July, 2011 Share Posted 22 July, 2011 Anyone think there might be issues regarding his work permit? He made his debut in may 2010 for Tunisia, so hasn't played 75% of internationals in the last 2 years. There might therefore be a delay in the deal, the same sort of delay we had when we signed Raidi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue will be money, the Verts were sniffing around him, Berne told them to wedge up a shedload or f**k off.As Sainté never have any money it ended there. Swiss chairmen eh!!!!!!!!!!

All speculation of course. Maybe,but then if that worked everybody would do it wouldn't they.Why Ox could even do it. There is a precedent, Mexes got fed up with Auxerre messing him around and just transferred himself to the AS Rome, contract or no contract. At the end of the various court cases AS Rome had to pay Auxerre 8 million euros plus some sort of damages and compensation and Mexes was banned from playing for about 3 months.

Junior Mullet Posted 22 July, 2011 Share Posted 22 July, 2011 Spoke to my mate in the gym, who is Tunisian and knows Jaidi. Says he is a very good solid defender, quick and has an excellent left foot, kept saying he was very solid but sometimes might be a bit hot-tempered. Says he was very close to signing for Stoke but Stoke were unwilling to pay the money for him. Suggested Stoke may still be in the hunt but felt Jaidi's influence might just tempt him here. Said he reminded him of Jones, the lad who just went to Man Utd. Felt it would be a really good signing if true. After our conversation I was left feeling that Stoke are probably favorites still but lets see...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
