Summer 2011 Transfer Window Part Two

[steo]

Watched the whole lot of that youtube clip,he looks a really good player almost good enough for our first team squad,great composure on the ball,able to beat a man and always demands the ball.will he get a work permit is the big question?I'm talking about Baez not Cisse.

[scunnyrover]

I can't understand anyone that's TOTALLY anti venkys. Another young south American prospect at Blackburn rovers, venkys must be in it for the long haul really, the last 6 months we've got rochina, formica and now baez, when was the last time this happened to us? Never. If these players and other young players we get come good we've got exciting times ahead! How can u criticise venkys for this?

Hope we do get cisse and a few other first team players so we can push on next season n get a squad that does well

naysayers, stop coming on here spouting your anti-nicko/kean/venky tripe, if you dont want to be on here, dont come on as your also making this site crash with your pointless, attention grabbing b-locks, i hope nicko doesnt judge the rest of us the same as you lot

Meh, people are welcome to voice their opinions as long as they don't get abusive.

... and Nicko has been around here long enough to know he's Marmite. Some love him, Some don't. But everyone comes back night after night to read what he puts.

nicko confirms we are trying to sign one of the best young strikers in Europe and it would smash our club record fee.

It takes a special kind of idiot to turn their nose up at that news.

Confirming what we already know from numerous stories making their way around the web.

It takes a special kind of idiot to brown their nose up at "news" reported by the Mirror.

Just like the Mutu story, this is old news delivered late.

Hope we get him, reminds me of Any Cole (Cisse).

You already knew?

Odd that you should hang around like a bad smell then.

I would hate to think you were disappointed.

But then again...

I'm sorry. I thought this was the "Summer 2011 Transfer Window" thread. Not the "let's all wait until Nicko comes in to tell us what could POSSIBLY be going on in our little world" thread. I'll hang around as long as I'm not banned from the site, thank you very much, in the hope that someone might actually give us some REAL news. While the majority of people in here might worship every word you type on here, I don't know you from Adam, and most of the time, the rubbish I see at 11pm or thereafter, clogging up social networking sites and forcing this one onto its knees is usually either stuff we already know. How you get paid for that I'll never know...

There's something brown on your nose there buddy. Smells too.

For Gods sake, I initially invited Nicko on to the site and am proud to have done so. Nothing pisses me off more than bores like you spoiling the site . Go away and don't come back.

Sorry, who are you?

I think I'll stick around personally, thanks. I'm quite enjoying the interesting points of view of certain members of the site with realistic and almost fantasy-like targets we could be going after. This isn't your thread. This isn't Nicko's thread. Nor is it either of you two's site. So instead of grouping together in your little clique and criticising people for having an opinion, grow up and get on with what the thread was created for.

I thought this myself earlier when I saw a photo of him. In the face, he looks quite a bit like Cole. I'm slightly concerned about the amount of penalties he scored last season though. While 24/34 is an impressive feat, it's less impressive with many penalties. And we all know how many penalties a season WE get.

Fair enough Glenn. I personally don't come here for Nicko and his posts. In fact, I've found other people's posts more interesting and informative than anything he's had to say over the past couple of days.

Speaking of which, I've never had Marmite. I really must one day.

(Please don't use that word again) me, heres the latest hero to cast aspersions on a chap that delivers decent and acurate news more often that not.

Your entitled to your opinion son but at least talk some sense, Nicko is on the money more often than not. Remind me again what you have bought to the site since you joined?

Well what a surprise. An anti-climax of crap we already knew, and a player we won't see for another three years. Hurray.

Plonker, sorry, but really???

You got the nker part of that insult correct USA !

You know this isn't Shawshank right? Nor is it a Mexican gang.

You don't have to wade in with windmilling fists to prove that you are tough so you don't become the bitch of some rough trick named Salsa Verde.

Sit back, relax and enjoy the pageant that is the transfer window.

Probably nothing. So what? As far as I'm concerned, Nicko is as hit-and-miss as they come. I'm sure someone even said yesterday that he was being given the run-around by agents just hungry for a little bit of attention for their client.

Not everyone that joins this site must have insider knowledge or a phonebook full of contacts. Read the URL: BRFCS - Blackburn Rovers Football Club SUPPORTERS Community. I'm a supporter of Blackburn Rovers. Thus, I'm pretty sure I fit the criteria of what is allowed on this website.

Now that I've helped you off your high horse, would you like to end this pathetic charade and talk about what the topic was actually created for, or should I simply ignore you? You're a human being that can type on a forum, as is everyone in here. We're all the same, regardless of post count, job, annual income, season ticket price, age. Don't pretend to be better than anyone else, when you're clearly not.

To be fair, we've only recently had some excellent young talent come through in Olsson, Hoilett and Jones and another talented young player signed in N'zonzi. So not too bad recently at all.

That said, really happy with the signings of Rochina, Formica and Baez all in all. Personally, don't care if we sign big names or not, as long as we're signing some players we can develop into big names on the cheap, I'm more than happy.

[Hughesy]

Baez is surely not one of the 5/6 signings? 6 figure fee (sounds like a dingle).....more one for the future.

Better to snap them up young than when they are costing you £10m+

Also South American which fits with Venkys

[Teacup]

Sounds like we have matched Dynamo Kievs bid for Cisse?

why don't you put nicko on ignore? you seem to hate every post he makes.

[patrickvalery]

Is there a limit to how many people you can have on ignore?

This lad looks very tidy. Carrying a bit of puppy fat perhaps, but i'm sure we'll sort that out. Very impressed with how well he keeps the ball moving. Dare i say, he could have one or two attributes we have missed since a wise old Turk left our midfield? Probably a little early to talk about that. But he definately seems to play in a similar area of the pitch. Seems to do things nice and simple which is good to see.

In regards to Papiss Cisse. He looks a handful. Maybe a little more hungry for it that the likes of Vucinic?

I read he scored 4 penalties, which if true isn't that many.

[daverich]

Its probably that time of the month for him/her, some people just love to whinge and crave the attention their controversial opinion attracts, rather sad really

[savage90]

The Mirror also saying Stoke have bid 6 Million for Sturridge! Strange bid if true. He's worth double.

Yer we seem to have a nice little influx of young players at our disposal now, been refreshing watching hoillet and ollson last year being able to run at defenders, definetly missed that the last few years. Let's just hope more is to come from rochina and formica.

If we don't get Jones from schalke we need some more steel in midfield though. Think viera would be a good shout but don't think he'd come and might not have the engine for a full 90 nomore. But nzonzi and co would raise their game though having him around

IF true, slap a £7m bid in

Front 3 of Cisse - Sturridge & Hoilett behind.....dream world or what!!
