This has cheered me up no end

We all dream of a team of BATTI boys

Ah, and we already have a winning song

I believe there was a rather more famous Argentinian striker who was popularly known as "Batigol".

It is MILDLY exciting but worth remembering that Arismendi cost 2 million and was mostly pants and the previous South American, Turienzo was 100% pants.. Gonna hold back on getting excited until I see that they can adjust to the battlefield that is League 1

Official Comunicaciones website (don't look if you mind being underwhelmed):

Are you sure? My Spanish is non-existant, but that looks like the website for a leisure centre...

 

[Pat_Albion]

With a name like Battipiedi you cant go wrong

 

[Ernest]

Don't want them. Want tried and tested

This is definately it

:: Club Comunicaciones ::


Looks like its a social club set up that has its own football team.

 

[Smythe]

Smart move bringing two of them over.

With a Spanish speaking manager/Spanish speaking defender already here it should ensure they don't feel too home sick and can settle in quicker.

its like Ardilles and Villa all over again!!!!

 

[thebazillionaire]

Still cue the moaners to come crawling out of the sludge. Lua Lua and Calderon.....both great players that nobody had heard of. Just stop whining.

 

[brighton_girl87]

They sound flairtastic

16s still on bet365

 

[cw00]

will Baz be played on the wing or as a striker?

 

[Knightsworld]

Ardiles & Villa, it's the second coming

NSC Yesterday - too many foreigners ruining English game rant

NSCToday - Argentinians and Hungarian come to Brighton and it's Amazing

I have to admit to being a bit uneasy about this. Many agreed that the flood of average foreign players is causing problems for the English game and here we are, adding to the problem. There is no doubt that these two are coming here to try to move on to bigger better clubs than the Albion, they know nothing about our history and struggles and will move on at the first opportunity, or if they are crap, they will disappear back to South America.

Might as well get rid of the youth team set up now and save some cash if this is the route we are going.

Sorry if I can't get too excited about signing a heap of foreign mercenaries using us for there own purposes.

Might depend on if we get Barnes or not.

It's the Premier Leagues fault for pricing the lower league clubs with limited finances out of a lot of the market.

I don't think we're adding to it so much, more we've been forced into it.

With only one year contracts at this stage it's worth trying on the off chance we get lucky and find a decent player on the cheap.
