Summer transfer thread, AvB window wrap up pg 1527

[funster]

Best known to me for two things:

1. Some well dodgy (alleged) sexual exploits while with the Mackems

2. Being at fault for all three of Burnley's goals at Turf Moor on a fudging freezing cold night where we embarrassed ourselves massively, yet somehow scraped through to make the long drive home just about acceptable - I promised myself I'd never fudging forgive him for that

Bye!

Nothing alleged about it - the video was doing the rounds!

Looks a talent. The only thing that worries me about most South Americans is they are often not built for the rigors of the PL and take time to adjust.

I'd said what a top player Oscar looks like being, then a couple of weeks later it seems we want to sign him, I could get used to this.

Sauce?

If true that would be a massive mistake by the club.

Someone lock this thread because you just know it's going to come back and haunt us later in the transfer window.....

im sure there are plenty of examples to the contrary mate - Junhinio springs to mind and although not South American our own Luka Modric was written off as not being up to the rigors of the Premier League

Jasper said:

VDV is more likely to go (we desire) if someone actually speaks with money than just enquiries

Poster on SO said:

No no no Jasper. That has to be wrong. I hope so anyway. We have absolutely no reason to sell him. He loves it here and he was one of the best players of last season.

Archibald said:

Afraid not Jeff, it could play out over the window.. Jaspers post was good

 

[P.D.]

Alnwick has been released on a free and joined Barnsley. Only thing he will be remembered for is his phone videos. Looked shocking whenever he played, truly terrible signing.

 

[Papercut]

Keane might have thought he was okay

Read from forums /facebook nothing concrete but the whole Hamburg and wife wanting to stay in Germany etc


I agree a massive mistake if true and worried

I thought he mentioned at some point when he joined us that he wouldn't be against doing his swansong at Hamburg..

I completely agree, I cant think of many Brazilians to succeed in the Premier League apart from Juninho who found himself in the cold north.

 

[Dicko]

Diego Forlan on a free anyone????

He was on our wish list for about 8 straight transfer windows and I bet now he's available (and free!) no one here wants him anymore lol

Akayid smashing his way through Twitter.

Sandro, Ramires, Elano, Geovanni, Robinho, Gilberto Silva.

You do get the odd stinker like Kleberson or Roque Junior though.
