According to that Nico bloke on 't Rovers forum we're signing Romeu.

Not the one from So Solid Crew unfortunately, the reserve Barcelona midfielder.

Never heard of him before TBH.

Meant to be the fallback option, with the deal for Fofana going south. Was meant to be flying in yesterday for talks.
He's the next Fabregas. Barcelona will be using dirty tactics in a few years time approaching him illegally begging on their knees quite literally (picture it however you want to).

Davies + £5 million for Samba? You've got to be joking.

So not only are our own players all getting injured, but even those that we are linked with are falling down.
Wonderful

He's be on loan I'd guess or it's one hell of a coup. Very highly rated by all accounts.

Injured last night, out for 3-5 months

http://www.elmundodeportivo.es/gen/20110104/54097445506/noticia/oriol-romeu-de-3-a-5-meses-de-baja.html

Why?

Based on previous Villa transfer policy, I'd suggest that makes his signing a virtual certainty !!

I'm more disappointed that Spurs are after Suarez...If they manage to pull that off then with VDV and him they really are stretching light years ahead of us.

When we were there or there abouts for three seasons they're the kind of signings we should have at least targeted. Spurs are making the most of their time in the sun...did we?

Sun? We're still stuck in Wales.

I think this is more of the same, like the Samba link.

We're defending badly, a defender wants out. Bam!  2+2=5.

We need a striker, RSC wants out, City to sign Dzeko. 2+2=5.

Shame we're now being lined up alongside Newcastle, Blackburn & Fulham with this ongoing bullshit transfer talk.

Blackburn supposed to be offering Ronaldinho £120k a week for the next three years?  Good grief.

Davies plus £5m for Samba?
That's a terrible deal.

For Blackburn it is.

Eh? If you add on what Davies is worth to the fee, then it means we're paying 5m for Samba.











Oh.

I'm confused, are you agreeing with me?

The last thing i want to see is another session of players who can't get a game at their home club coming here, i'm fed up with cast offs i would rather do with no-one than some of the names mentioned. Say what you like about Rednap but when he was out buying good players O'Neill was bringing us  journeymen. Yes we battled well against Chelsea but we are desperate for quality.

It is a shame that the 2 highly rated kids he has targeted for that defensive midfield role are both out injured now. Very unlucky. I hope the first team option of Makoun is still explored.

I also think it is worth getting Walker, as long as we have a to buy fee agreed.

I'm telling you, Davies will be Cahill all over again.  He's a good young player that lacked the confidence to live up to his transfer fee.  We'll let him go for nout and then Arsenal will be picking him up for £15 million in a few years time.
