Convict Colony Posted 15 January, 2013 Share Posted 15 January, 2013 Is this thread actually about Foggen or is it just some morons chatting sh*t. Unfortunately it's about Forren although I whish it was Foggen as I had a song already made for Newcastle.

david in sweden Posted 15 January, 2013 Share Posted 15 January, 2013 Just mentioned it on Five Live. Apologies if this is old news.... "close to signing" and Liverpool trial thing mentioned. I suppose it depends what you call " old news " ....your post is number 347 on this thread, but your ahead of me as I've been out clearing 12 inches of snow away from my garage door this evening.

Lokky_saint Posted 15 January, 2013 Share Posted 15 January, 2013 this guy was recommended by that Lars bloke as man in the know for Forren - @RBFlemma. From what he's tweeted and Norweigian articles posted seems like Lundekvam was playing Cortese's role in this one. Tomorrow can't come soon enough, should hopefully be a Saint by then!

SNSUN Posted 15 January, 2013 Share Posted 15 January, 2013 I don't know if one of you spotted this, and I can't be arsed to trawl back through 8 pages, but a Liverpool fan in Norway on one of their (many!) forums wrote: Hi fellow reds, I'm a long time lurker on these forums, but this possible signing got me so excited that I had to write a few lines. Coming from Molde and having seen almost all of Forren's matches, I agree with Fowi above, he's a solid player and I honestly think he can be a good addition for us. As someone already said, he's got quite a good left foot, and he likes to carry the ball from the back and into midfield. He's composed on the ball, and has great determination in every duel. He reminds me of Agger on the ball, and if he can keep developing as he has the last few years (a late bloomer with few/no U-21 matches who has just recently earned his place in the national team), he might slot in when Agger's inevitable injuries come along. He isn't quick, but I haven't seen him exposed too much by pace. And even though he plays in an inferior league, and a lot of people, including norwegians go 'meh', he has been very good in the Europa League matches, and also getting MOM for Norway, and this has caught other clubs' attention. Also, if the price quoted is right, I think it will be easy to offload him and recopup most of the money if he doesn't deliver, but I think he'll be a great CB backup. Oh and btw, he has never played at left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
