Summer 2016: Transfer rumours and suggestions

[Monty]

He bafflingly seemed to see himself as a kind of Megazord-mashup of Gerrard and Makelele. My favourite memories of him are the times when he'd pick the ball up in midfield and barge his way tank-like all the way to the cornerflag, where he'd shank it into the crowd.

[LukeJames]

0-0 at home to  Chelsea, 92nd minute and we break one on one with Cech infront of the Holte...

"Go on Ash, go on, fucking hit it son........... Oh for fuck sake its Nige"

[eamonn]

"Youngy''...has to be the crappest nickname ever.

[Diablo]

he was never good enough, for us, or anyone else; just a bullshit sandwich.

Agree, I rember being down there and shouting good tackle followed by oh..as he gave it away, it's a no from me bob

I know his shooting was woeful but for the sake of some balance, I remember him having a blinder at Anfield when we beat them in a midweek game. I thought he was great that night.

Correct. I always called him "Ashleyey".

[PaulTheVillan]

NRC is ridiculously overrated. I could run around fouling if I was fit enough. We should avoid. Chris Herd was better.

I remember him 'tricking' the keeper to win a penalty due to his appalling ball control

NRC is no different to Gana imo....

That said I'm going the version that played for us which was over 6 years ago now.

Since then he went to Bolton, got relegated, went to Ipswich where he made little impact and then has gone to MLS where he hasn't done much so I'd say he's well past his best now imo.

Gana is a much better player.

Like comparing Camembert to mouse trap

Finally we're more of less rid of Gabby out the team and now Reo Coker's coming back.

I feel for you mate.

Ha ha, we just need Karim el Ahmadi to return so you can feel part of the 'oh ffs no' club

Unfortunately there will be one or two champions league clubs in for him too. 

Celtic and FC Rostov?

[Chris Jameson]

I'm amazed Reo Coker is still in his thirties. He's been around forever, or it certainly feels like it.

[eamonn]

He was young when we bought him, like ''Youngy''.
