Chris Samba => Arsenal/Spurs

[PAFELL]

what is everyones views on trying to get steven taylor from newcastle as a replacement?

I would rather have James collins from villa if Rovers are to sell Samba.

I agree. I wouldn't be expecting a superstar or anyone of Samba's quality, otherwise they'd be joining a higher positioned club. A steady centre back would be my preference and Collins appears to be that. Certainly not a shirker.

We should be going on for players like Pique. Ten million tops.

Rovers demand £12m and a picture of Samba looking a bit different.

Case for the defence: Samba in pre-season action for Blackburn in Hong Kong last month

Mm good work.

[Jackson]

I like the thinking behind this. Will old sack-face fall for it?:

Collins would be a good signing for us but I can't see Villa selling him tho.

If Samba ever left then either Collins or Dann would be a good replacement for Samba.

[philipl]

That Star article is plain wrong.

[roverandout]

philip, wrong in what way?

philip, wrong in what way?

I don't know what price has been pencilled in for Samba but it is significantly more than £12m.

[67splitscreen]

I really can't see us accepting anything under 15m, 10m + Walker and Naughton leave the expensive (wages) deadwood for them to deal with

[dubdubdub]

They'll never let Walker go. Olsson and him as full backs/wing backs and we'd destroy teams on the break...wishful thinking. Plus I don't think we'll see a right back as a priority position that needs filling. Next year yes. This season we should be looking at more important areas.

[Mullionvagrant]

No Samba on the field/bench for todays game. Anybody know the resosn for this? Is there any significance in his absence?

[philipl]

Groin problem brought back from HK.

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

He's got a groin strain from HK. He's watching on.

Any minute now roversinsider will be saying that hes in a hotel talking to Spurs

[chaddyrovers]

He is there watching the game!!!!!

Lee Grooby, the rovers internet manager is there watching it and has said that Samba has travel there and will be watching the game. No point risking him in a friendly when season starts on Saturday.

The season starts next week, I think you mean.

[roverandout]

no he means next season, rovers' relegation has already been confirmed.

[braddock]

Your team rather scabbed that draw at the weekend. It seems your defence will always be appalling.

[roverandout]

are you saying im a dingle?

[braddock]

are you saying im a dingle?

I can't see any other explanation for the recent trolling.

[roverandout]

im not trolling, im giving my own concerned view, i dont want things to be like they are but in my opinion i cant see it any other way.

[philipl]

Strong indications that Fabregas and Nasri are both leaving Arsenal.

Very concerned that this will mean Samba is going.
