Spanish striker?

[marshy68]

i think we need a jason roberts sort of player

Jasonio Roberto is in a free from Athletic Bolloxio I think!

[seagully]

Are you sure? What about Messi? Would he come?

Good point. Silly of me. Let's stick to discussing realistic targets like Llorente and David Villa.

We've got enough shorties, to be honest. Thanks, but no thanks, Lionel.

Where has this name come from? Two or three people have been splurting it around from time to time on here recently.

In my case, a guess and nothing more.

 

[Batti]

Not sure if the OP's information is recent. I was told pre-Christmas that we had pretty much done a deal for a Spanish second division striker but things had hit a snag. It may well be that things have changed and it's now been completed though...

His wiki entry is a cut and paste of CMS'



Anyway - Toquero is like Bilbao's Gary Hart, isn't he? There to stay.

Toquero is just about my favourite La Liga player I think. He is the hardest worker ever but doesn't score himself. Think of a hugely committed Emile Heskey in his pomp and you are pretty close.

Me too. I really like Athletic Bilbao and Toquero is a grafting hard worker. He loves the shirt and always gives 100%. He will, I feel, like Joseba Etxeberria, be a Bilbao player for all of his playing days.

I don't think he will solve any of our existing problems!

A snag? now why does that not surprise me

A 'snag' is a polite way of stating a rumour that makes someone sound interesting whilst talking out of their ass. We have players coming out of the woodworks both fantastical and disappointing but nonetheless they seem mostly untrue.

 

[chucky1973]

Yes. Will doubtless be far better value than some overrated Brit. Had you ever heard of michu?

who ?

 

[Weststander]

With the Basque links in the team, could we possible see this man donning blue and white stripes come January??

Juve bound.

 

[chucky1973]

a friend of a friend is a Chelski scout, and he has said that we have got Machida (not sure how you spell his name) all sorted out from Man Utd till end of season. never posted a rumour before.

[crabface]

I believe we would be more likely to get a striker from Spain than Graham from Swansea.

 

[Frutos]

your know of him if you follow spanish footy,i doubt most on here do

As a frequent La Liga viewer, any chance of a PM with a name (confidential of course) so that I can confirm you were right if it comes off?

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

Yep i heard this on football rumours, is this where you got this info from or where your mate heard it from.

I didn't say the person was a mate, I said that they were pretty reputable. It sounds viable, (except the "done deal" bit - which is a bit strong granted).
