French league 2.

As was Steve Mandanda when he came over for a trial with us in 2008, and Fofana who GH wanted in 2011 -  both have gone on to far better things since. 

Players have to start somewhere. 

If he was 27/28 and still playing to that standard then fair enough.

Well in terms of style of player he sounds exactly like what we need, plus Udinese and Stuttgart were after him.

Fofana failed a medical here, the bastard.

Salifou came for peanuts, Makoun was fine. Give the guy a chance.

I am more than happy to embrace Sylla as our saviour. Its 5 minutes till closing time and the lass in the corner with the dodgy eye and the donkey laugh is looking more and more attractive.

Just saying I'm not expecting much - and if he's that good why wasn't he signed on 1st Jan .

Lets hope I'm way off the mark .

Jesus Christ! We are signing a player from the French 2nd division, that's another Kid and sounds like an ingredient from a Pro biotic yoghurt.

We're doomed I tell you doomed!

Pat Murphy said we've paid £2m for Sylla, who's a six-foot, very physical DCM, and that there's at least one other "iron in the fire." Let's hope so, but it's good news at last!

Thinking of the 'Bent to Stoke' talk, I would hope that in the event that the deal brings one of theirs to VP it's N'Zonzi we're asking for and not Charlie effing Adam!

Can't believe people are already slating Sylla.

Sounds like one more is being worked on and possibly two more if we sell Bent. All happening.
