[Archived] Potential Summer Transfers (2010)

[Amo]

I watched Vela last night and think he is a nightmare for the defense. I would love to see him here on loan.

If not him, then how about dos Santos?

[Hi Mack]

Dont u guys follow european football at all?

To compare Lukaku with a random young player that is being brought into the reserve team is just pathetic.

Lukaku is already incredible strong, big, and good to head the ball, and hold up play.. He would walk straight into our starting XI if he came here.

Problem is, and I dont know why we even are discussing this. Lukaku would never come to Rovers, and Rovers would not have the money to buy him.

Of course we do, We all watch the Belgian league every week.

No one is really saying we should go for him, He is obviously a talent and may well be a world beater but it

all smells a bit Freddy Adu'ish to me! You can expect too much from a young lad sometimes.

Sometimes people have to realise people do other things in life other than watch football and go on BRFCS.

Nicko if you had to take a guess where do you think Guti will end up ?

[Hi Mack]

I think it's anyones guess, doubt Nicko will have any idea. My Guess.....Retires at Madrid end of next season.

Blues have pulled off a major transfer coup by signing towering Serbian international striker Nikola Zigic on a four-year deal.

Shame. One player I really would've liked to see at Rovers. But I guess he was out of our (money) league.

Nicko.

I heared that John Carew is available for sale, and some english clubs are interested.. Are we one of those?

One more season in Madrid then off to MLS or Dubai for a couple of years.

He is the ideal player for "Sam's style" of play, I guess there'd be a whole host of clubs after him but he would be a decent choice.

Possible Targets: Dindane, Zigic, Benjani,Piquionne,Beattie,Carew,Lewandowski?

The list is shortening by the day!

[Roberto Policano]

Glad he didnt come to Rovers as hes obviously more concerned about a good pay packet than the level of football. Lekhwiya have also signed Bakary Kone from Marseille.

Lekhwiya were bought out by a rich Sheikh last month,he changed the name to Lekwiya from Al-Shorta Doha.

He obviously wants to make a good start during his first season in charge.Bakari Kone is a great little player.

The Qatari League is quite a high standard.Plenty of Brazilians playing there.It's probably the same standard as the Championship in England.If not slightly stronger.

This is the boy we need, Sam, get on the phone...

Lukaku

Anderlecht are asking for £16 million.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Have we signed anyone yet?

[roversmum]

Have we signed anyone yet?

What, and spoil a good thread?

[Roberto Policano]

With regards to Guti, Inter Milan did make enquiries about signing Guti this time last season.

Jose is a fan of Guti's,and that would explain his wait and see stance.

[AJW]

what do you think about Basturk? is he going to stay ?

[Hughesy]

If not him, then how about dos Santos?

Id prefer Vela...far better finisher too!

AJW - Unless Basturk has been truly amazing in training then I cant see it considering he never made an appearance and just proved to be abit of a sick-note.

[Roberto Policano]

what do you think about Basturk? is he going to stay ?

If thats to me.Only Alan Nixon can answer that.

You must have paid him 200k in wages by now,and he's only played 1 half of football so far.

So surely you will release him.

[American]

What happened to him already having signed for Panathinaikos, by the way?

I'm forgetting - didn't Ten Cate take over as manager a couple of seasons back - roughly the time we signed Ince? (Didn't work out that great for him there, either, but I guess he's found his level in Dubai.)

I believe Basturk was on a pay-as-you-play deal from his parent club, so we only paid them when he played. It seems unlikely, therefore, that we would have paid anywhere near that amount for him. Probably nearer to £20,000 than £200,000!

Ambrose looks set to join QPR for £1m.

Dang. Would have been even less for us, since they owe us cash.

[McClarky]

I really hope we don't go in for Kris Boyd. He seems to me to be a big fat useless lump with a bad attitude. He has scored loads of goals in the SPL but has also often been left out of what is generally regarded as being just about the worst ever Rangers teams. He is also known to be a moaner and a bad influence so I would rather give him a wide berth, a very wide 1 in fact with his girth.

[1864roverite]

he isnt fast enough for the premiership. I dont see him coming to the Big league, he will no doubt stay at Rangers or go to a championship club.

[broadsword]

Are we there yet, Dad?

Are we there now?

How about now?

How much longer, I need a wee and I've stuck my lolly to your head-rest.

Fair enough sir,as long as the source is creditable,and not from someone's blog or dodgy website.

Talking to a Rangers fan I know, he seems to think that Boyd will stay at Rangers now Walter Smith has agreed to sign on for another season.

to be fair mate, no i don`t, not really. though i do think it would be unlikely that a 16 year old from belgian football would walk into our team, no matter how highly rated he were at that level. the premier league in my opinion is a massive step up from where he`s currently playing.
