Bailey Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 As mentioned during the WC I think he would be a brilliant signing and he fits Moyes bill of being versatile. Having said that I dont see him coming in without another player going (other than Jutkiewicz & Gosling) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that I dont see him coming in without another player going (other than Jutkiewicz & Gosling) I was unsure about him at first and didnt know much about him, but since you pointed him out i started to pay more attention during the WC. Looks a good player but im still reserved as I only saw WC performances. No mention of a fee there, is he on a freebie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anywhere between £3-6m I would imagine - depending on how desperate pompy are for cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 Anywhere between £3-6m I would imagine - depending on how desperate pompy are for cash. that wouldnt be too bad! but, do we have even that much? Been looking around for an update on the Pompey situation, can only find this: http://www.goal.com/en/news/9/england/2010/07/21/2035580/portsmouths-administration-fate-to-be-decided-before-the i imagine we will have to wait for this decision before they sell anyone else and it will also affect the prices...

StevO Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 he had a good season last year considering the outcome, but he was awesome in the world cup! id take him but whether he would get a game i dont know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiemaher85 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 I think he looks a real prospect. The problems with this being two fold. One; We don't have any money. Two; I have no idea how we would fit him into our team. We have a huge amount of options in the centre and I just can't see the logic of signing yet another central player.

aaron Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 what maybe throws more weight into him possibly being intrested in us and stoke is that his brother (recent city signing) will be in the same area as him, so family ties maybe a benifit to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 No doubt he is a good player but his best position is behind the striker/s ala Cahill and Rodders so i can't see it unless we sell because we need a wide man in my opinion <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianthompson1979 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 quality player again. Full of skill, and would link brilliantly with arteta. Can play anywhere across the midfield and will put a sht in. Would love to sign him. Might be able to get him for £5m.. If we have £5m!?!?!?

Romey 1878 Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 He'd be an excellent signing, but as has been said, he'd be unlikely to get a game for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scouse Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 he looked good in the world cup, wouldnt make the first 11 if all players fit tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueblood Posted August 1, 2010 Report Share Posted August 1, 2010 Wouldn't make the first XI if all XI fit but how often does that happen?! It's a squad game, as we found to our detriment last season IMO he'd make a fabulous addition to the squad. He plays with real power and that would add a new element to the squad that we don't have an abundance of at present so would be a massive yes from me. If we were looking at another 5ft 8inch skillful central midfielder I'd ask what's the point but not with someone different to what we have.

pehitt Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 http://www.football-italia.net/aug05p.html had this actually happen he could be useful to get on loan as backup maybe ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiemaher85 Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Genoa could have a really decent squad next season. Made some good signings so far this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
