[Archived] Ins and outs

The player is foreign but has prem experience. No mention of whether he is over here at the moment or not. Be good to pluck a decent player from a rival club for a change.

Wait didn't Nicko say this guy is the centre midfield target?

don't think he did

[Blackburn Ravers]

I hope Rovers wouldn´t break club record buy for him.

fair one,

Iceman has mentioned Ryan Babel

[beerwins]

Nzogbia is a good player thats for sure but i'm dissapointed our central midfield is getting no love.

If we got Nzogbia what does that say for Hoillet? I would be happy enough with the wingers we have and I certainly would'nt be putting the majority of the budget in that position.

Furthermore how much would it leave us for a striker?

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Am I missing something here. I thought Nicko alluded to a centre midfielder? Whilst Nzogbia is a good player - isn't he a left winger/left back? How does that fit with the midfield playmaker,right winger, centre forward theory?

Iceman has mentioned Ryan Babel

Yes he did. Also Nzogbia and Mendes. I think Nzogbia was mentioned before too and Mendes can´t be worth of £7M. So it´s Babel. Always thought he is better player than have been at Pool.

[Torgeir]

How much would N'Zogbia cost, around £8-10m surely? Good player, would certainly improve our attacking play. So we're after an attacking midfielder/winger (N'Zogbia), a central midfielder (C. Adams a candidate) and a striker (Mr. X, Y and Z being scouted?). What about left back? I think we need a specialist there...

Would signing a central midfielder push Jones back into central defence alongside Samba?

Smashing our transfer record on Babel. Dear God.

Hopefully that would mean that Grella, Chimbonda, Andrews and Roberts will go.

For the left back position, what about Enquire from newcastle? BS sign him for them 4 years ago.

Think I'll wait and hope for the morning and pray it isnt a record fee for Ryan Babel as it wouldnt set Sam Allardyce in a good light.

Iceman earlier, Mendes, N'Zogbiz and Babel, only N'Zogbia played today. Nicko said he was watched today.

Sam short of the mark with this one 5'7"

[JAL]

Who is this Mendez ?

[JohnD]

Yes he did. Also Nzogbia and Mendes. I think Nzogbia was mentioned before too and Mendes can´t be worth of £7M. So it´s Babel. Always thought he is better player than have been at Pool.

and Alonso............

I think this guy wasn´t watched today. Nicko mentioned Rovers are monitoring right winger, box to box midfielder and striker. Babel and Nzongbia need no scouting.

MR X

[The Rover of Finland]

and Alonso............

Yeah, I hope it was Iceman who mentioned Robben

[blue/white]

I think the Chelsea situation has to be watched. Ancelotti wants to spend in January - and Roman has said yes.

Better keep an eye on VIP box at Bolton tomorrow methinks...

Let's hope a Jason Roberts attempt on goal puts out the windows at the VIP box, then

[HemelRover]

I think this guy wasn´t watched today. Nicko mentioned Rovers are monitoring right winger, box to box midfielder and striker. Babel and Nzongbia need no scouting.

Im confused. Neither Babel or N'Zogbia are right wingers or central midfielders. Babel could be counted as a striker, maybe.

[Kei]

It's Akon.

Let us rejoice.

Correct just re read the post.

[blue/white]

All right then. Got a game to go to.

But will name the big money 'midfield' target in the People tomorrow.

Feel free to stab at Mister X.

My money is on someone getting it right.

Couple of clues. It's NOT Luca Toni. But he is foreign - and has Premier League experience.

The fee would be [arguably] a record.

Final word on it until the story comes out.

Enjoy.

[Darwen Rover]

As I mentioned before was massively impressed with Nzogbia earlier this season when playing against us.. Think hell make a real difference
