Leave him as backup. I can't see him going for too much money and he's definitely better than the options we have in reserve right now...

That's about the best option, I reckon.

Our only option, Drogba was crap his first season

Looking forward to Grella having the same impact as Drogba next season then..... :wacko:

I don't understand why a club with meagre resources like Rovers paid £4m (!!!) for an ageing player with a history of injuries. It doesn't make any sense.

Grella needs to get a solid pre-season under his belt, toughen up and show his worth next season. Otherwise, goodbye.

OMG he says something sensible! I agree Jim, we have to give him a chance 1st, then decide. Personally I think he could become a decent player for us.

At the time according to Alan Nixon JW was concerned that Ince was not appearing to want to bring anybody in despite having money to spend.

I think the situation was that there was a concern about whether the manager knew what players he wanted to sign with the money he had available..plenty of trialists, players being watched etc...and time running out before the start of the season.

Good to hear Grella's analysis of his first season.

Encouraging that a player should see he was struggling to get to the speed of the game.

Gives him a chance of putting it right when he sees the major problem.

Well done to him for that.

Watched Grella last night at the Melbourne cricket ground. Aus vs Japan. Looked very poor. Passing was awful to watch and he looked yards off the pace. And this was agaisn't a very average Japan midfield.. Didn't want to comment too soon as I hadn't seen him play with being in Aus but deary deary me... 4 million? He's not good enough.

In all seriousness, if we want to improve on last season, Grella and Andrews must be replaced. God help us if they are the midfield two. Pretty sure they wont be though. Here's hoping for a completely new central midfield.

There is no chance we can shift him so I guess we just need to see what Sam can do to get him up to standard. There have been moments where he has looked good enough, but few and far between. You have to say age and fitness are against him too....

Its sad to think that for the same sort of money we could have brought in the likes of Bradley or Cattermole....

Discouraging but not all that suprising.

It'll be good for Grella to get a few more games under his belt, has to help get him ready for next season to hit the ground running fitness wise. More and more I'm thinking Grella looks like a solid squad player - sadly at a first team star cost.

I agree, think this fella could be much better than people think, Bert as well says he's as good as anyone around with a great range of passing ability!!

Hope Vince has a great season!!

Yep, Ince bought a crock. I've been quite lenient in regards to Grella as he's always looked useful when he's played. He can't stay on the pitch though.

It's on the official site. To be fair, BFS says it's a one or two day job, just a minor tweak.

Not sure why people immediately want to turn it into a crisis by only posting half of the story.

To be replaced by a much worse injury shortly no doubt

Another useless signing by Ince.
