It could be quite likely that we will start to see KPB featuring pretty soon.

Sevilla tried pretty hard to sign him in the summer and after supposedly agreeing a deal to play for Ramos Sevilla were pretty much gazummped by ourselves.

It seems from what i read yesterday that Ramos likes to play 2 big CM's so im expecting a Huddlestone-Boateng partnership at some point this season. Whether that partnership would work remains to be seen as i've only seen Boateng in the away leg against Famagusta where he was being played wide.

Wouldnt suprise me to see Zokora, Tainio and Malbranque become surplus to requirements come January due to lack of height and presence although Tainio is a very dogged player which may appeal to Ramos

Maybe Ramos will bring Ghaly in from the cold. Would be interesting to see how Ramos will deal with him.

I think there was some sort of deal set up where by once he joins the club, he will need time off for his marriage and this is what has kept him from appearing. But surely his newleywed phase is well over and my only worry is, if he's as hyped up as he's supposed to be (Young German Player of the year) then wouldn't he be playing? I don't think he did much for the reserves either. Same goes for Taarabt, although he does lack maturity I feel. I'd still much rather have Elano than either of them though.

He had a couple of days off to get married. He had only played one game pre season so came to us unfit.

He has done well for the reserves, scoring and setting p quite a few. However, he was yet an other "for the future" signing who said he wouldn't expect to play much in his first season.

Also the "young player of the year" thing is bullshit. They give out far more awards than we do, so there are quite a few "young players of the year".

Having said all of that he is a god player who will hopefully come through quickly.
