Mbark Boussoufa

[Stat Brother]

This sounds quite BG-ish

You take that back, unless of course the fella in question has previously played either for or against the Albion. ;lol:

 

[Marxo]

I saw him play when he was here, a very skilfull and clever player but he's no longer the player he was and I'm not sure he'd be good enough now for the Premier League. (he earned a lot of money in Anzhi)

I though from the thread title it was BG, posting about Mark Bright.

 

[Justice]

Oh dear god it's the season of " I can't reveal my source " role on August.

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

The Morocco international bit is what worries me.

I watched Bromley a lot as a lot and the 'keeper Chuck Martini was an Morocco international - he was also crap

 

[HastingsSeagull]

It's a no from me...... 1000 of these this off-season and 1 will be right though

 

[Seasidesage]

Not sure he'll be that bothered. Stocks at 31 is just right for a keeper. Dunk, Duffy, Goldson and Bong all in their prime. Stephens, March, Skalak, Knokkie all likewise. Kayal and Baldock are ok. Poco at 31 was a loannee, only really leaves Bruno and Murray at the high end, which is only to be expected in any squad. I'm sure it will all be addressed by CH without him worrying at all. A handful of signings is al it needs.

From what I have heard doubt Bong will be here...but I take your point. It's not mega urgent but I do think it needs addressing.

 

[martin tyler]

I'm in as I like his goal celebrations and I think he could rival baldock and knockaert in this respect.
If it's solely on playing ability I'm out though

 

[warmleyseagull]

Just want to hear how WA pronounces his name so yes from me,

Oooh, what have you heard?

As for Badger Boy, thanks for posting. I genuinely love this kind of rumour thread.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

I agree.

If we just take Europe, I make it 16 or 17 (depending whether you count Kosovo) different European nationalities who've not played for us yet (and that's not counting microstates). I reckon we could add many more South American and African countries to that list

Specifically, I'd like a Croatian and a proper Brazilian - I'm not having Raphael Rossi Branco.

 

[glasfryn]

sorry warren BUT IT MADE ME LAUGH

 

[Seasidesage]

I don't want to say too much other than he has an offer from elsewhere which I hear he has already accepted. May be nothing in it and I'm certainly not giving up a source. It's outside the UK FWIW and he is a brave boy for wanting to play there if it's true.

I don't want to drop the source in it.

I've always liked a proper Brazilian myself.

 

[Gullflyinghigh]

Just because it would appear that no-one else has yet;

Can he play at left back?

 

[ferring seagull]

Have not read all the replies to this thread BUT seriously we need to be looking at reducing the average age of the squad which this current season has defied all sense !

 

[Hugo Rune]

Can't get past the name on this one. It's 'Mark' or 'Embark' not Mbark thanks. So a no from me.

 

[Charlies Shinpad]

Club shop could get rid of a lot of spare lettering on replica shirts if we signed him

 

[symyjym]

Haven't got a clue who he is but 32 is a good age these days if not carrying old injuries. He won't break the bank, it won't be a long contract and at 32 should bring experience. If we are looking at him it will be for good reasons.

 

[Lurchy]

Specifically, I'd like a Croatian and a proper Brazilian

If I was BG, I'd suggest that both of those bases could be covered by getting Eduardo da Silva in.
