pete0 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Rate, scout, Everton worthy? World class? ect. Just had a look for potential targets in the Eredivisie with centre forward Alfred Finnbogason (linked with Villa) http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/alfred-finnbogason/leistungsdaten/spieler_90024.html#NL1 and right winger Ninos Gouriye http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/ninos-gouriye/profil/spieler_190633.html standing out. Has anyone watched much of them? Ten are they on your list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_E Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Finnbogason is someone who played in Belgium for a while, but never made much of an impact. Then again, he scored a lot of goals in Iceland before he came to Belgium and he has been scoring a lot again in Sweden and Holland after he left. Anyway, I don't think he'll ever make it much farther than the Eredivisie. Gouriye has been good this season, but I haven't seen enough of him to really judge him. I like his team mate Lerin Duarte though. Central midfielder with good feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a quick vid search of Lerin Duarte he looks very small, nice shot on him and good positioning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Never heard of them mate, sorry. I do like atm, Richmond Boakye. Part owned by Juve and Genoa, proper 'goal getter'. Big, strong, great technical ability for a big lad, reads the game well...list is long. http://www.transferm...ler_119213.html Staying in Italy. Udinese's new signing, from Genoa. Alexander Merkel (mentioned him a couple of times) before, think Cleverly but better. http://www.transferm...eler_86926.html I hate the Italian league with a passion but there's a bubbling hotbed of new young talent waiting for their turn. Some other names i've noted for this year. Amin Affane - Chelsea - Wants out, realises his chances are slim and doesn't want to kill his career so is pining for a move. http://www.weaintgot...st-team-chances Juan Quintero - Pescara - Wouldn't cost the earth but he's incredibly talented AM. He can take Set-pieces too. If Arteta and Osman had a Columbian kid...weird thought. Kurt Zouma - St. Etienne - IF Distin needs replacing, look no further. "Coach Galtier had previously said the reason Zouma’s name was not on the shirt was for his own protection. The longer Galtier could keep Zouma out of the spotlight the better chance Saint-Etienne have of keeping the defender in the famous green jersey." http://frenchfootbal...nage-sensation/ Mattia De Sciglio - AC Milan - I'd earmarked El Shaarawy two years ago, and last year it a team mate of his who's looking to be a potential 'Worldy'. Marco Van Ginkel - Viteese - A dutch CM who can run and run and run....Real all rounder, has stuff to learn but a great midfielder already. And guess who's been reported to have shown interest.... http://www.tribalfoo...-ginkel-3631791 Edited January 14, 2013 by tenaciousj pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 No worries. Not heard of many on that list, guessing the ones I recognise are the ones you had previously mentioned. Keep'em coming . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcirony Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Im sure we were linked to Finnbogason at some point last summer too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_E Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Im sure we were linked to Finnbogason at some point last summer too? Sure you aren't thinking of Sigurdarson, signed for Wolverhampton? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcirony Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Sure you aren't thinking of Sigurdarson, signed for Wolverhampton? I was indeed!. I knew Wolves were involved somehow too. Thanks for clearing that up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Fella 25 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Imo we should buy Michy Batshuayi from Standard de Liège next transfer window. He's a 19 year old Belgian striker and is at least as good as Benteke and Lukaku. He is strong, fast, has excellent dribbling skills, good left and right foot, good passing, etc. He will fit great in the PL and can do our opponents quite some damage.

Big Fella 25 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Here is a video from a year ago, so he was 17-18 years old then. He is even better at this moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
