Thinking about it kind of makes sense. We could have this back 4 against City

Robbo

Jacobsen Salgado Givet Warnock

We could also have, if fit,

Salgado, Samba, Nelsen, Givet/Warnock

To be fair, Jacobsen hasn`t done too badly pre-seaon, he has been pretty average and not made too many mistakes, but Salgado would be an improvement in terms of the CV he comes with and the experience and knowledge to back up his CV !

Benni, Salgado, Givet, Rothen have all played champions league.And with 2 young strikers in Kalinic and Di Santo, looking to make an impression,and with Pompey and Hull in disarray i will be surprised if we struggle this season. We also have Robbo and Warnock out to impress Capello, so its certainly feeling much better than under the Ince regime

I agree with you. On the other hand, if Sam thinks Salgado, Rothen and/or etc., is a better move, then I am willing to trust Sam's judgement over mine. I am sure he is well aware of the club's stregths and weaknesses (to a greater degree than anyone on this board) and is taking steps to address them as best he can.

He's done an outstanding job so far and I'm betting that he'll continue to make the trades which keep us on the right side of the relegation zone and maybe even a top 10 place.

Spot on, completely agree with this post - and it can be used to defend any potential recruit that Sam goes after, as no-one can quite argue that they know better ? and if they do, lets hear the reasons why, and no Champ man, or FM2009 I think that is more than reasonable

Question for Nicko is why on earth has The Mirror online broken this news at this time of the day........How many people are not going to bother buying the paper version now........Makes no sence or has Sir Alan got a new job as a Public servant......Very nice site tough.

No More 11 O clockers I think as well............

Maybe they can become 10 O'clockers :-)

has salgado been playing recently? just wondering what his fitness levels are like

Played on Ronaldo's debut against the Irish team. Salgado played like he belonged to that Irish team. I very much doubt that he can hack it in the Premiership now at his age. Can't teach an old dog new tricks springs to mind.

Ok just had a phone call from my grandad - he's staying at Northcote tonight for his Anniversary.

Anyway when they were having thier meal, on the next table was Sam, Selgado, his agent and an interprateur (sp?), although his English isn't too bad anyway. Sam was outlining his plans and when he spoke to my grandad he told him who the player was (experienced defender from Real Madrid), Sam and the player are staying there tonight and Sam hopes to sign him tomorrow.

According to Juan Lirman, Goal.com Spain's chief editor, Salgado has "won four league titles, two Champions League trophies, one Intercontinental Cup, etc." And ""Salgado can still play at a high level, but not for the current Neo-Galactico Real Madrid."

Full article is here: http://www.goal.com/en/news/1717/editorial...chel-salgado-to

Seems like a good buy to me.

Not had the chance to check on earlier posts...hope this is fresh.

MICHEL SALGADO...is in the building...the former Real Madrid skipper...a very decent right back in his day...has been in for talks and will have a 'test'...he is a free...great player in his time, but now 33....interesting one....not sure where it all fits, biut what the heck.

ROTHEN...is also here...despite the boss playing it down...no idea why...maybe it is part of a bigger picture...

THE NANTES LAD...is due in tomorrow....surprise too, but they seem to be landing quite regulalry just now.

STEPHEN REID...played in a closed-door game today...hopefully he is OK...but it would be a lot to expect him to be back and ready.

KALINIC...work permit granted, as you know.

Interesting to see Rothen is here. Is he out of contract now or would he be available for a small fee?

PSG have basically kicked him out, so I can't see the fee being an issue...maybe the length of his contract would be...he wants a lengthy deal.

Still, I head the midfield is a bit thin. Now it's up to the manager to decide.

Didn't know Salgado was public knowledge. Now there is an interesting one.

So...potentially three coming in?!

Some simply have to be leaving, surely? But who? :huh:

Have they not heard of the 11 oclocker?

New one to me....will investigate.
