There’s even reports that Barcelona recruitment was not even aware of the player. What’s going on Same agent that Odemwingie used perhaps ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'll find Caballero was bought as back-up during a " pre-season" and stayed with us for ...two years?. and so we need "an extra body" who knows what the Prem. is all about. Preferably a goalie with some sort of international experience. There is no certain date when Bazunu will return and he'll need to be a "bit better " (quality-wise) than he was in the Championship.

Not signing with another club on July 1st and the one club that actually showed any interest, Wolves, signing a different striker, suggests to me that Che staying is quite likely. If he does, as with Macca, i don't think we be signing another `first choice' for that position. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes literally been back training under a new manager for 3 days. Lopategui will need a few weeks to assess their options before potentially agreeing to sell Downes.

The good news is they have just sent £40m on a CB, so at some point they might need to make a few bob back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkish Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 (edited) 10 minutes ago, Dellyears said: We owe McCarthy a big vote of thanks for his play off performances do we? He's barely played for the last two years whilst being one of the top earners at the club. In fact he's only made 29 apperances in the last 3 years. He's made millions out of us and done virtually fuck all. Three competent performances in the play offs dont change that, He made a very decent save away at West Brom in the first leg, had nothing to do in the home leg and a few routine saves at Wembley. Lets not pretend he kept us in the game against an onslaught, it was hardly Rorkes drift stuff. Edited July 4 by Turkish 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
