Hitzlsperger becoming available...?

[Springal]

We were close to signing him I believe, but Everton got in there. Everton about to release him, as they are about to sign Odjidja-Ofeo who looks one for the long term, as Hitzlsperger was only short term. Had some injury problems, but has been making appearances for Everton and doing OK I believe.

Reckon we might see Gus go back for him ?

Interesting but I thought we weren't interested in him due to his medical history, he then went on to sign for Everton. He's obviously proved se form of fitness now so wouldn't be too surprised if we go back in for him, he's another midfielder though isn't he? We've got enough of those banging about the place as it is.

Now he's proven himself I'd imagine villa or west ham would be in for him as well.

Probably doesn't bring too much in apart from a lot of experience. If Bridcutt is on his way, could make things interesting.

An absolutely excellent player, would be very pleased if Gus got him, however he could do a job for a Premier League team so I doubt he'll be coming down this way (high wages too).

Not going to argue that he will have a lot of interest, possibly at a higher level, however we did look at him very closely, medically, I am told, so can't be that far away on wages I'd imagine.

If he's fit, well worth signing. The strike that hit the bar against Wigan on Boxing Day was pretty special. He'd get goals in The Championship for sure.

Yes, despite the fact that we have many mid fielders, I do think he'd bring something different, a bit like a good version of Crofts.

My impression in the summer was that he was ment to do a medical over in Germany but just didn't turn up..

It wouldn't be a transfer window without talk of The Hammer joining us.....

 

[ees complicated no?]

We were interested in him way before Everton was, he spent time with our German doctor but didn't think he was worth the risk due to his injury history, so tbh I can't see anything happening.

Two conflicting accounts of why we didn't sign him. The first version ties in more closely with my understanding. But I might have been misreading events at the time.

West ham bidding for him and fat Ricky according to someone on twitter.
