Manwell Pablo Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Good stuff, we'll have a decent centre mid with Joey and Djemba-Djemba! Apparently he is having his medical at the minute (Joey that is). I wouldn't count your chickens just yet, people on here foget Joey was diabolical for us the first season he was here, after flops at Villa Wolves and Betis (AZ as well by the looks of things).

The People's Hero Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 I wouldn't mind that for a centre midfield. In this division anyway. Yeah! I remember the last time JG played in this division... I think the club he was playing for set it alight!! Oh no, hang on, we were shit! Now that he's richer, less fit and blown his chance at the bigtime.... Well, fook it, I can't be bothered.

Manwell Pablo Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Who says he wants to come back? He may of left because he doesn't want to play, despite what he said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trumpet Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Good stuff, we'll have a decent centre mid with Joey and Djemba-Djemba! Apparently he is having his medical at the minute (Joey that is). Whoa, hes not that good. Championship - Average. Premiership - Not even close to average. He was one of a verysmall number players who shone for us last season, he wasnt that good. Infact, the Joey bandwagon only really got going after scoring from the half way line and when the team started grinding out results. If he had stayted i reckon he'd get an average rating of 6 / 7 this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ajax Treesdown Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Joey is very average. He was average in a shite team last season. Burnley can have him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston. Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Wouldnt mind so much if we were bringing in players of our own but this whole takeover deal has descended into farce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Claw Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Matt holland is a much better player than Joey, look at how well Matt Holland has done in the premiership, Joey was shite for Villa. In a side playing shite he looked alright that is about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookwhaticando Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Holland or Joey ... doesn't matter, either would be an improvement on Andy Johnson for example. He'd improve the squad if he replaced Andy Johnson - and that's what matters. Doesn't have to be in the first XI, but a reasonable alternative is nice to have. Especially when you consider that one of our first choice CMs is always likely to get injured or suspended. Furthermore, you have to consider the fact that no fewer than three of our CMs are out of contract in less than six months time. Suffice to say, CM needs reinforcing at some point in the future - sooner rather than later would be nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potter3 Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 If anyone sees Andy Johnson within a 5 mile radius of Belvoir Drive or the Walkers Stadium, feel free to remove his knee-caps (you can nick his hub-caps to if you wish) Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynny Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 SHIT! I guess we don't have the money just yet, but surely we could have arranged a loan until the summer and a transfer fee in July, knowing the takeover is almost sealed? I don't believe we passed up that oppurtunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaststandtom Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Good stuff, we'll have a decent centre mid with Joey and Djemba-Djemba! Apparently he is having his medical at the minute (Joey that is). the guy scored some screamers last season and put in some very whole hearted performances. but he is very erratic and not the kind of guy who will improve your team on his own. he's ok but dont expect him to hang around. i think leicester was the longest he's been at a club (2 seasons) i can count 6 non icelandic clubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scow Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 I'm not too fussed. He was influential towards the end of last season, but a little overrated by a number of people. Still would be a better option than Tiatto in midfield though. Hopefully all this won't make a difference if (and it is a big if) Wesolowski can return to what he's capable of. A different player to Gudjonsson in that he's a tad more defensive, but more composed and disciplined on and off the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Joey will either make his debut for them against us or score his first goal for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigadams22 Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 We need Joey Gudjonsson back with us at Leicester City, The offical takeover news is that by early week we'll be taken over by Milan. That source came from the Leicester Murcury, we really need to start thinking about buying players. We've only got 10 more day's of Transfer Window left, So come on Rob Kelly start buying some decent players for the Foxes.

lookwhaticando Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Joey joins Leicester (July 2004). Free indeed, stezoh. King regards, etc. etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookwhaticando Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Interesting to note that we were indeed his longest spell with a club, two years. Two years is the longest Gudjonsson has spent with any club and he does feel his game has improved. [...] "I've also learnt that the championship is a difficult division and that you've got to be committed, and hopefully I can now transfer that commitment to my club in Holland".

willy37 Posted 22 January 2007 Share Posted 22 January 2007 why would he want to go the burnley? well, because they have a chance of getting promoted.

Master Fox Posted 22 January 2007 Share Posted 22 January 2007 If we’re actually serious about a promotion challenge IF the takeover goes through then we’ll need far better players who than Joey Gudjohnson. Joey, no thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
