Out Foxed Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 Upson didn't miss a game last year. Injuries happen. which makes you wonder.. i reckon he's been pinged for something. Possibly PED's
ealingfox Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 He's foreign, with a typically foreign name, from a relatively obscure league. Get him in. We'll worry about if he's good or not later.
Ric Flair Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 I'm talking about what other PL clubs will offer him. What if no other PL club wants him?
dpjfox Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 Quality player , i doubt £4 mill would secure his signature, at the rate we concuct transfers maybe one for next season
st albans fox Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 What if no other PL club wants him? he's good. Someone will if he is available. Of course it just possible that we've found a player with an agent who doesn't leak stuff in order to get a better deal elsewhere ........ Doh!
StanSP Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 Sounds promising, he's only 5'5! DIMINUITIVE DIAZ. DIMINUTIVE DIAZ DROPS DEFENDER'S DENIMS

Of course it just possible that we've found a player with an agent who doesn't leak stuff in order to get a better deal elsewhere ........ Doh! I don't think the clubs that would be interested in him would pay more than £30,000 a week. The likes of Jan Vertonghen who was one of the most sought after defenders in Europe when at Ajax is only on that amount when he signed for Spurs!!!
sylofox Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 Think we lack some physical presence in midfield and whilst this guy is a very creative player by all accounts at 5ft 5" isn't going to give us that. So you can't be strong and physical if you are short lol

Just because other clubs can offer more, it doesn't guarantee they will.
breadandcheesebrother Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 Two training sessions scheduled in for Tuesday. Definitely being unveiled at the press conference on Thursday
Nick Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 Ones a defensive mid, the other is a playmaker so it'd be off if you were right. ... Didn't think we would be in for both - not disputing what position they play in.
MGLCFC Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 So you can't be strong and physical if you are short lol You know the saying 'a good big un is better than a good little un' If you think that he'll match the strength, power and pace of say Yaya Toure, I think you may be disappointed. You only have to witness the Crystal Palace game at home two season's ago - their big, strong and physical midfield over ran ours away in the first 20 minutes.

Yeah I was going to mention us buying Messi but he's only 5ft 7" so he won't offer us much of a physical presence either.

Babylon Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 There will be some news on cambiasso tomorrow in the papers.
Callabinho Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 There will be some news on cambiasso tomorrow in the papers. Some one told me he was at the game today... bullshit possibly...
TheUltimateWinner Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 Some one told me he was at the game today... bullshit possibly... Utter bullshit, he was blatantly having his medical at that time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Think you guys are missing my point - I'm not disputing small players can be creative and the best player in the world is as you say only 5ft 7" - I'm saying we probably have enough of these types of players and that I'd prefer someone with a bit more height and physical strength to combat big physical sides - we aren't Barcelona, so we aren't going to out pass many teams in this league.
Spiritwalker Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 I'm not familiar with Swiss or Chilean football so I will reserve judgement on this until I've heard what King Fox has to say on him.

MHC Posted 23 August 2014 Posted 23 August 2014 I hope so, we NEED to add a midfielder before the Arsenal game. Maybe we have just linked ourselves with this player to get Cambiasso to hurry up and sign, I don't know but we must get someone in before the Arsenal game. No mucking about, just pay what's required and offer the guy what he wants, we haven't got any time to waste. Hopefully we will recruit a couple this week.
