I thought Vogel looked handy at the end of last season. He can pick a pass, and also pass the football accurately/forward, which is an improvement compared with some of our current midfielders

He also had a good 'footballing' brain. He bossed the midfield for the first hour against Man Utd, along with Emerton, until he tired. Maybe a full pre-season will have benefitted him.

I'm not sure he played much in pre-season - and he also lost his number 8 shirt to Dunn. I just get the feeling Ince isn't a fan.

I see Rovers were at the Bordeaux v Nantes game................David Bellion is an INTERESTING target.......I am sure Ince has asked Fergie regarding him............The guy looks totally different from the player that was here during the United/Sunderland days...........he would be ideal for the right wing......

He must be batting on a bit now,seems to have been around forever..

EDIT: Just checked he is only 25! :o

Considering, because of his contract dispute, he had not been playing much football at all, I thought he made a really decent impression. Sadly, he has been injured this pre-season, so would have missed out on a lot of work.

Nicko, on Everton, do you think Moyes has a chance of brining in the 6/7 players he was talking about?

Seems a bit extreme/unlikely considering they have struggled to bring in anyone all summer (apart from their freebie today).

Nicko, is their any Rovers related names you can reveal.

I find it rather worying that we havent made any 'offers' let alone signings in the past week...

Hopefully thats true and Gamst Pedersen can have a word with him but at this moment i reckon Newcastle are going to get him.

What was Nicko's rule again about the number of clubs mentioned in one report? :)

Can't see Spurs spending on ANOTHER midfielder when they only have one striker willing to play for them. And aren't Portsmouth so broke they're selling Kranjcar to pay the bills? Just doesn't add up.

He might get four or five, but not of top quality.

Three on at the moment. One signed, one coming, one possible on loan.

It's a start.

Why do they all leave it so late?

Did he not sign a new contract earlier this month?

The guy played three times last season...and was allowed to leave for nothing.

That will please the punters.

Well he did only play 3 times last year because he was injured most of the season. He then got his contract cancelled because he did not want to play in the 2nd bundesliga.

I would loved to have come to Ewood, he is a fast RB with some very good offensive qualitys and can tackle also.

This is another guy that I mentioned a few days ago as a potentially good signing, to solve our right back problem. I know we have bought Simpson in, but I would like Finnan to come in as well. That would mean that we would have two men covering ever position in defence and he would certainly be a quality addition to the team. I'm glad that there are rumors are surfacing on the internet.

This would mean we had 2 out and out RB's, Emerton for RM and Ooijer for CB cover...

Could it be Ince is going all out to have Emerton at RM, or is he going to make sure we have at least 2 first team worthy players per position...? Ie. Finnan and Simpson for RB, and {mystery person A} and Brett for RM? <_<

nicko, there's a strong rumour about a Ghanaian player being next in. It's not Annan is it?

Have just completly forgot in this Annan saga that my mum's cousin is the Chairman(or rather Chairwoman if thats more correct) of Stabaek where Annan is on loan. While back in Norway this weekend in my aunt's 60th I got to know that Annan apparently was struggling with an ankle injury while on trial with Rovers, but maybe this has been reported somewhere else already, by nicko or media?

I think I've read it on this board that scouts finds the brazilian left winger of Stabaek, Alanzinho, to small for European leagues. I can confirm that this is correct as well, the scouts are always impressed by him but worried about his size.
