[Archived] The ones we missed out on

[Nelsta]

Nigel reo-cocker who we were linked with has been released from aston villa along with 9 other players including John Carew and Robert Pires.

[Tim Southampton Rover]

If Nigel Reo-Coker's attitude is good then he could be a terrific free transfer. I've always rated him as a good player but he never quite pushed on to the next level whilst at Aston Villa. He was a great player for West Ham.

Reo Coker on a free will be a great signing for someone.

Carew would do for me as a Benjani replacement. Much better player.

I'd agree, he can support right back too. With the right attitude, if we could have the options of Reo-Coker, N'zonzi and J.Jones in the middle, it'd make us very strong. I believe our creativity will come from out wide, but also having 2 of those 3 in the middle offers Formica or Rochina a chance to have a little more freedom if they were to enter the first team.

According to Reo-Cocker, he didnt want to sign a contract as champions league clubs are after signing him.

Apparentley Borussia Dortmund want him.

Again According to Reo-Cocker.

[Tim Southampton Rover]

He'll probably have a shock in the next few months when none of the top sides come in for him. He'll probably end up signing for someone like Stoke instead.

[Tom]

Not sure we were ever keen but surely Benjani turned out to be a better signing than Beattie!

Glad we never got Zigic about the best player we have been linked with in recent years is Cardoza (or is it Cardozo?)

Wonder if we'll see the fastest Bulgarian in history at next years olympics?

Think Piquionne has looked decent so far.

I do too but unfortunately his performance will be judged against the backdrop of relegation.

I think Lewandowski has won a Champions medal with Borussia Dortmund winning the German Bundesliga.

I've still not got over us not signing Di Santo

I'm still mystified why Chelsea did! No doubt a few palms were greased along the line with the russians ill gotten.

Sounds just like sommat bentley would say too!

Carew? More like a RSC replacement 1 for 1 cos that'll likely be his wage demands.

Reo Coker is OK but if we can get J Jones we'll not need him. However if we are able to dislodge Grella, Andrews and Dunny then he'd be perfect.

Robbie Keane did well, well at least he did his best to keep Rovers up ! I'm saying this just so S-15 dpesn't have to.

One we missed out on that is doing quite well...

How's Ronaldinho getting on?

[tcj_jones]

We were in for Jelavic not long ago and I thought to myself the other day that maybe we missed out there.

According to Wiki - 27 apps / 19 goals.
