The 26-year-old is valued at around €250k (£167k). anyone know anything about him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted 16 August 2004 Share Posted 16 August 2004 We dont need any more defenders, its the midfield thats the problem from what i can see. That'll come to nothing, sorry Harald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filbertway Posted 16 August 2004 Share Posted 16 August 2004 If he's a centre back and good quality we need him, what if 2 of our central defenders get injured or suspended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted 16 August 2004 Share Posted 16 August 2004 Heath, Dabizas, Keown, Dublin, Elliott, Stearman - need i say more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted 16 August 2004 Share Posted 16 August 2004 yes Petrescu, you do, Elliot? maybe, Stearman? maybe, not convinced Dublin's best use will be there either, Keown won't play all games, Heath and Dabizas may be injured...I like you hope Stearman is as good as all that, but how can we be sure? And elliot's well past his best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted 16 August 2004 Share Posted 16 August 2004 We cant be sure about anything until we give anyone else chance when we need to. If Micky goes ahead and brings this defender in he's yet again frozen argubly our most talented youngster out the team for the season. We cant even be sure this foreign player could adapt to English football. So its a risk either way. I prefer we keep the ones we have already as they aint bad, its the left back and right wing thats the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzzell Posted 16 August 2004 Share Posted 16 August 2004 Heath, Dabizas, Keown, Dublin, Elliott, Stearman - need i say more 12291[/snapback] Heath: Young, has abit of experience. Dabizas: In his 30's in which we will only get another 2 seasons out of him. Keown: He will be over next year. Dublin: See above. Elliott: See above again! Stearman: No experience whatsoever and is still very young, needs to improve abit more before stepping into the light! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest freund Posted 16 August 2004 Share Posted 16 August 2004 just found this article McLeish goes to Antwerp for a look at £1m-rated starRoyal Antwerp's Harald Pinxten has become the latest player linked with a summer transfer to Ibrox, with Rangers boss Alex McLeish understood to have watched the £1million-rated defender in action last weekend. English First Division side Wolves are also on the trail of the Belgian, after a series of fine displays from the 24-year-old, who has been an ever-present this season for his club. Royal Antwerp secretary, Paul Bistaux, said: 'It is true that, in our last match against Westerloo, Alex McLeish was over watching the game. 'There are many clubs interested in Pinxten and Wolverhampton Wanderers and Oldham Athletic have recently been over to watch him. 'He is a young player who is doing well and has a lot of potential. In the present- day situation in football, you cannot hold on to a player when a direct offer is made for him. 'If someone comes in for him, you are obliged to let him decide whether to go.'
