where exactly will he play when sandro is fit? sandro is better.

Sandro isn't fit and will be out for at least another month and then won't be match fit. And plus we will have plenty of games assuming we stay in cup's fingers crossed. Will be good to have a back up player as good as Parker when Sandro Isn't available.

 

[wallyjakeman]

So, say we sign two out of Parker, Diarra, Kaka and Ribery (can't believe i just wrote that)...and still have Modric, Huddlestone, Sandro, Lennon, Bale, Pienaar, Falque and maybe Kranjcar. There is obviously not room for everybody, despite injuries, suspensions etc. As much as I would love Kaka and Ribery in Spurs shirts, how is this supposed to work? We might even be stuck with Jenas, Palacios and Bentley too in midfield if no one comes in for them. I have seen this problem before. On FM. It turned nasty and I had to fine some of the players.

I just cannot believe that this deal would happen at anything like the numbers being mentioned. We have about 5 players already that are sucking up resources, that we can't get rid of, we have just needlessly added a 40yo goalie and we are about to commit somewhere between 10-15m on a 30yo, with a history of injury, who's had one good season for a shit side in his last what 8 ? And the manager that wants him future's in doubt.

Redknapp must have a picture of Levy dressed as nazi being whipped by a hooker in brothel.

 

[Mr Pink]

What people have to remember is that Sandro might not be back into rhythm until November/December, longish lay offs can be really disruptive particularly when surgery is involved.

Parker could slot right in with immediate effect.

what about diarra, dead in the water?

 

[Graysonti]

Okay with Parker but Cole........

Nooooooooo

 

[wpd659]

what about diarra, dead in the water?

He was told diarra has been told that a Champions league team wants to sign him and that could be the reason for the hold up and also issue's with RM and there fee and future clauses and fee's but DL is still looking to get him in if possible.

 

[Graysonti]

Fringe midfielders must be going? Palacious

 

[wpd659]

Tbh i like the idea of cole personally. And my ITK was told cole would prob be a last day deal if he was the come unless something changes and/or we dont get our other targets.

Any news on 'the special one'

 

[beats1]

Also to anyone who said yellow is kaka POTL laughed when ackie ITK was mentioned on coys about kaka

 

[wpd659]

Only what i was told before and that it was either an striker or attacking midfielder that can also play as a striker.??? sorry doesnt narrow it down much. but he did say we are not going to break our current wage structure to bring a player in so this does count out your Kaka theories in my own opinion that is thou.....

 

[sunnydelight786]

All we need now is Bellamy, Beckham and P.Neville to complete the set of triffic players Harry wanted when we were a CL club. It's a statement of our intent and ambition to Luka by going out and fighting off all the other huge teams to sign Parker, player of the year you know, and J.Cole.....

 

[stevenurse]

am i alone in having my personal opinion of diarra as "meh"? yes he's a decent player but we have sandro for the long term, of course he wont play every game but to have someone like parker next to him or as back up is a decent option if you ask me.

We hopefully have Sandro for the long term. Havig Diarra as well would give us some reassurance that we'd have a decent DM for a few years, even if one of them were to go.

If Palacios departs to make way for Parker I'll be very pissed off. I like Parker as a player, and reckon he'd be a good player for us next season...but I'd much rather have Diarra...simply because we'd have him for more than one season.

I'm genuinely expecting Harry to express an interest in Clive Dunn next.

 

[jimmy-jojo]

He's been brought in for his character, to drive us on against teams when we are 1 or 2 nil down...probably would have made a difference against United come to think of it.

Might not be a better player skill-wise than Diarra, but his character will make up for it.

He'd probably be the reason we were 1 or 2 goals down with his headless chicken runnng around.
