nicko Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 The price is £4.5 million. I think that was established by Manchester City when they went in a couple of weeks back. Santa Cruz's quotes probably refer to Rovers, but he was being crafty by putting it out there to make sure everyone starts talking about him again and thinking of signing him. That is why Rovers now want an answer or they move on. I think they are doing the right thing. Clubs, players and agents all play games. This is no different. But it is time for a deal or find someone else.
Eddie Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 If Sparky has a genuine interest in him, scouts would have been sent to watch and homework done on a player. If he does come to Rovers, I'd urge people not to take him on his previous record but to see him play in Blue and White. Whilst his previous goalscoring record is not great he has always been pretty highly rated. I think it would be quite an exciting signing with lots of potential.
LWX Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 does he this santa claus guy have any pace??....coz thats what we need up top a bit of nip!!
thenodrog Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 coz thats what we need up top a bit of nip!! ? sounds like a teenage boy's fantasy
Mozzer Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 seems like if we go for roque santa cruz or beattie it seems were after a target man more then a fast striker. roberts can be the quick striker we need..
LWX Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 ? sounds like a teenage boy's fantasy as in a pacey striker.....a forward who is fast
nicko Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Not had a good tease for a while...so here goes. There is a top young kid flying in for talks with Rovers. He is a left winger and rated a real hot shot. I know his name, but I'm holding it back for a day because I don't want to waste it as there is so much else going on. If anyone can come up with the lad's name they will win my everlasting respect. After the Roque Santa Cruz amateur detective work it is possible. But this one is a real tester.
JamieUK Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 I guess it's too much asking for Royston Drenthe?! :s

Edu Nicole Mitea Andrea Lazzari
Mozzer Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 nicko , daniel braaten and Daniel Fredheim Holm , is it any of them???
Pugg Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 ? sounds like a teenage boy's fantasy Haha! Oops laughing out loud in a room on your own isn't a good idea. Is the winger Arda Turan? :ph34r:
Mozzer Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 why do we even need a left winger?? we have pedersen, peter and treacy, does this mean someone is leaving???

bringdunnback Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 nicko, is the guy a player, who if signs, will probably play in the reserves and work his way up or will he challenge for first team straightaway.
brfcshabba Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 You say flying in - Is that a reference to being a flying winger or that he is a foreign player literally on a plane?
LWX Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 You say flying in - Is that a reference to being a flying winger or that he is a foreign player literally on a plane? no, he can literally fly..... sorry couldnt resist!!
nicko Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 He is 18. It is one for the squad if he signs. He is a relative unknown but there is a good story behind it and he has a great name. And he has flown in. I wouldn't see it as a threat to MGP but if he joins it would certainly put the other left wingers under major pressure.
brfcshabba Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 no, he can literally fly..... sorry couldnt resist!! Got to be Super Ted then
nicko Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 I will leave you with that thought for the evening. Got CSI Miami taping. The sooner the season starts the better.
