Linganzi

Welcome to Ewood Amine

[RibbleValleyRover]

Welcome to the club Amine!

[magicalmortensleftpeg]

Another household name brought in, good times.

Hope he comes good, Sam has bought well so far and seems to be able to spot them from nowhere. Does anyone actually know anything about him by the way??

Welcome to Blackburn Rovers the greatest football club in the world.

I'm quite confused! The word was that the hold-up was over the fee that St Etienne wanted..and suddenly the Rovers site says it is a free? Weird. Perhaps Nicko's info was off. But it seems odd that they would accept letting a youth prospect go for free to a Premiership team. Did we exploit a loophole?

[Tom]

Maybe no fee up front with some clauses thrown in. Like an 80% sell on clause

Perhaps we managed to procure some pics of the St Etienne Chairman exploiting his secretay's loopholes in the boardroom.

[Tim Southampton Rover]

Anyone got any info on the lad?

What kinda player is he? Who is he similar to? Is he better than Andrews?

Ha, this kid aint no cartoon

Is he better than Andrews?

I know nothing about him but I am pretty confident he is.

At 20 he is probably been signed with a few of him appearing on the bench pretty soon. We certainly have a much younger squad than we used to.

I like that we have another good (hopefully) young player. But how many do we have in the attacking midfield/second striker role now?

Dunn, Pedersen, Linganzi, Basturk and (still, as of yet) McCarthy.....

[LeChuck]

Looking forward to seeing him play...for some reason I have that irrational feeling he's a good 'un, like Samba and N'Zonzi.

He doesn't look 6'1 in that picture like Wiki suggests though.

Looks fairly well built (muscle, not fat), mind, which may be cancelling out his height.

[Fylde Coast Fan]

Position? Preferred foot? Anyone know anything about him at all?

Hoping for an N'Zonzi, not a Van Heerden.

I wouldn't mind him having Van Heerden's pace though!

We've yet to asses his pointing abilities.

[bluebruce]

Hmm, is this a little jibe at us, or at least a presumption about our football?

Sky jackass?

"He heads to the Premier League with limited first-team experience, but an imposing physique suggests he has all the attributes required to be a success with Rovers."

Sounds to me like a direct inference that the only attribute required to succeed at Rovers is an imposing physique!

Take it as a compliment. We bully teams. Like we always (generally) have and SHOULD. The Labore to compliment our Arte.

It certainly will not hinder him.

I for one liked the bully label that we had, it made teams uneasy to come to Ewood.

Thought that we played to that against Wigan.

Big Fat Sams' blue and white bully boys!

[bluebruce]

Good 'point'. He seems to keep his hands at least partially closed so far. I don't think he's what we need!

Another article about him on the website now, interview with Sam. Hand closed as he shakes. The other one open but not pointing. Shoddy stuff, I'm not a fan!

Sam's thoughts

Sure, I don't half mind having players that can rough it out...but I take a little umbridge at them ignoring the Arte part!

Don't worry about it bruce, laugh it off as sad. They do the same to all the other PL teams bar their preferred 5/6 whom they have a constant, boring and predictable love in with (Until they all go bankrupt and then they stick the boot in , like they did to Leeds)

How many othet clubs would give their right arms to be "The Mighty" Rovers ?

Wiki

Wiki was the first place I looked and contains none of the information I was looking for. Just says he's a midfielder and we've signed him.
