Will make this afternoons match more interesting, let's see how he handles Cody Gapko.

oops !

 

[southstandandy]

Awful defending by the right back.

Failed the first big test. Not supported well by the goalkeeper

I love that no one can be bothered to make a Ratiu thread.

Superb block there

But very good block on 53 minutes (Danny Murphy has described this as a tackle, I think it's a block)

no fannying around, let’s get this done

 

[Big Vern]

Like the look of this guy, bit more physicality.

 

[Mancgull]

The type of player we’ve needed since Caicedo left. Hopefully we’ll get this one done.
Baleba more of a box to box player. Can you imagine a midfield duo of Wieffer and Baleba? We’d not be bullied off the ball with those two.

Precisely this. He wants to come. The only risk is our own ability to execute a deal.

 

[Marshy]

Get it done TB

Yes. Sounds exciting.

We need some muscle and aggression in the MF although I see both Baleba and Weiffer playing a DMF/CB role primarily- would still like to see us sign another attacking MF player that will play the sort of role Hartel did at SP. (Similar to how we used Alexis).

Yes, think it’s clear that we are after that type of player.

This is exactly the sort of inside knowledge that this website needs. Good work on those contacts

When this sort of post appears on Fab's timeline, it is usually because the player's agent is trying to flush out other interested parties too. So we need to be quick. We know that when it becomes something of a bidding war, we don't tend to come out on top that often.

If you're right and the agent is trying to flush out interested parties, then the speed of the process isn't in our hands. The player and agent can string this out until deadline day if they choose

At least until Netherlands are knocked out anyway, and the player then might have a holiday if they really are playing agent hardball.

He wasn't included in the squad due to injury.

Is he playing in the Euros? I thought he was injured?
