Nzuzi Toko SIGNS

[S'hampton Seagull]

Yes.

 

[Mowgli37]

Excellent news, looks a very good player. As said previously, him, Ince Stephens and Crofts in any combination would be a force to be reckoned with.

 

[Hotchilidog]

Can't wait to have this confirmed, he is a BEAST!!! Would certainly boost our midfield.

Except there would be no room for Buckley (?) LuaLua, March, Joe Cole...... .....

Forgot quotes.

I should have clarified that one of them would be on the bench rather than four in midfield! Buckley and Lualua on the wings, March can play in both either wing or in midfield and who knows what would happen if we got Cole.

 

[dadams2k11]

Perfect replacement for Andrews. And that article practically said he'd signed a contract. Nice. Him, Ince and Stephens in the centre will be a brick wall.

Practically?

Are my posts written in invisible ink?

This made me chuckle.

 

[severnside gull]

No question he will add some bite and Ince will get plenty of appearances covering Toko's inevitable suspensions

 

[casbom]

I reckon the new man, whoever he may be, will want Toko Nzuzi.

Gut feel.

You and your cryptic clues! So reading between those invisible lines, you know who the new man is and he has already approved the signing of Nzuzi!

Nice!

 

[KZNSeagull]

He seems to get better the more the crowd whistle at him. Whistling at the Amex it is then.

Nice!

Or our manager is Michael Skibbe of Grasshoppers?

 

[Albumen]

Crofts?

Crikey, he'll have a battle with Stephens for that spot. Great!

 

[saafend_seagull]

Much like austin at leeds.

Toko got suspended for hitting yellow card limit twice last year, so imagine he'll have a few supsensions during a season!

In the championship almost all the teams are good in midfield. It's what you do at either end of the pitch.

I'm not saying that this guy wouldn't be a valuable signing. But I'm looking forward to see ward/Bruno replacements and what the club are going to do about wingers and strikers. ( I say this because while we have lua lua, Buckley, Ulloa, CMS I'm unconvinced whether we will sign anyone).

Pessimistic for a sunny morning eh?

Haven't we offered Bruno and Calderon new deals? I wouldn't think a third(fourth with CHicksen) right-back would be a priority

I thought we had let Bruno go? Apologies if in correct. Whilst Calderon is okay as back up I don't know if I would be comfortable relying on him all season.

Chicksen struggles to get a game at left back. Why would we switch him to right back?

Not to worry. Bruno hasn't gone so doesn't need replacing. Buckley on the other hand almost certainly will go so maybe some added "movement" up front.

ALL sides may have good midfields......except those who don't buy good players and organise on the training pitch..... with Joe Cole pulling strings hopefully we can be among them.

Cheerful thoughts for a cheerful day

Bruno is still under contract.

 

[Sam-]

I stand corrected. Must have read the list of players released when I was drunk or asleep or both.

Okay I'm now more positive. We can survive with only 4 signings this summer then.

Nice!

I think you've read wrong.

Bloom has said none of the targets will be signed unless the new boss wants them.

What Bozza is hinting at is that Toko's signing is already secured, and that the new boss will by default 'approve' it...
