FFC Summer 2009 Transfer Thread

You obviously had your glass stolen from you when you were young. The scar has never completely healed, and yes, you manifest your hurt in breaking every glass you find.

 

Which is why Don has a lifetime ban at all Applebees locations.

 

Don't worry about it Don you can drop by my house anytime. We have plenty of plastic cups to go around.

 

Apparently Michael Ball is still available. Konchesky isn't bad, but we desperately need some depth at LB. Koncheskey needs to know that if he makes bonehead plays like he does often, then he could be benched. Really if Ball would just stay healthy he'd probably be my first choice. He'd be a good pickup.

 

EJ scored with a "super strike" in the reserves game. Good sign I think that hes getting involved in scoring opportunities.

 

I am one who is pleased that EJ is getting an opportunity and seems to be making the most of it. His playing well is a transfer that we don't need to make. (Sorry Jozy, you've got to go with that nitwit up the road a ways.)

 

The problem with EJ playing well is it may point Kamara to exit stage left. Joe hasn't been too involved during the friendlys, reserves, and Europa League. But who knows..

 

I don't know if I believe that, but it's good to be able to talk transfers again. Much better than hearing my friends tell me how funny it is that Fulham has missed out on every striker in the world.



Anyways, EJ could be a decent player coming off the bench for us. However, I really think that Kamara and Nevland did a fantastic job toward the end of the season. So he should be behind them.

Zamora needs to go. I realise that he links play well. but scoring 2 goals is unforgivable. Not only was he not scoring goals, he was not scoring them in hilarious ways. We need to make our move for somebody like Benjani. Good player that should come at a reasonable price. Obinna from Inter would also be on my list. If it's true that Inter wants to get rid of Balotelli for 8m, then he'd be my first choice. However, I really doubt he's going anywhere.


We still need cover in midfield. A left footer would be nice. Damien Duff would be a good addition. I think he still has something left. Remember we have a manager that gets everything out of his players, so imagine Duff flying down that left side. It'd be amazing.


If this has been covered, sorry. As everybody here knows I like to go in depth into transfers. Peace.

 

Ball wouldn't be a bad pickup on a free transfer

Anyone know anything about/have any opinions on this guy?

 

Agreed Don.

In Roy We Trust

 

Tough to go wrong with a big Scandinavian dude named "Magnus".

 

I'm glad Zamora isn't going anywhere. Hodgson appreciates him for exactly who he is and so should we.

 

Uche is on our radar again. His goal scoring record is simply rubbish. Hopefully his skill makes up for that.

 

says we signed him...

 

What says we signed who?

 

Kickoff.com and Yahoo! UK have both stated the deal is imminent at the tune of 2.5 million.

Hmm. He's played in eight of Nigeria's nine World Cup qualifiers thus far (more than Etuhu has) and they're not a half-bad side, so it seems like a fair guess that he'd qualify for a work permit. Worth noting that even if a transfer has been agreed, the club wouldn't announce it until the work permit process had been completed.

Still, Sky doesn't have anything about it, which seems a little odd; they've picked up on some of the same rumors we've discussed here, including those about Dikgacoi, Troest, Elm, Stoor, Zamora and Hangeland.

But on the other hand, we know Roy likes to work under the radar. And if I were Uche and had the choice between playing for Roy or for that blowhard Hugo Sanchez at Almeria, I know which I'd choose.
