Baggio 0 Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 Douglas has his Dutch passport as of yesterday doesnt he? Needs to play this weekend according to some Dutch guy on N-O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 3565 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 6 days to go, either of Peiters/Douglas in and maybe some striking backup and this will have been a great window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lake Bells tits 1 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Pieters can play FB and CB can't he? Would be a good option tbh. How much have you seen of him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Transfer 0 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 What's your point? I've seen just about nothing, but I've read about him and I know he's versatile and apparently half-decent. I didn't even say he was a good player, just that he'd be a good option to have if he can play in 2 positions that we need to strengthen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio 0 Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 I think our targets are Debuchy, Douglas and Carroll and I will be surprised if anyone outside of them comes in. Carroll is the most likely IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Park Life 70 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Still think we'll get Debuchy and one other. MA will have his poker face on last day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lake Bells tits 1 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Been reading up on a few fan forums you see, and not many of even his own fans seem to rate him. Curious if anyone on here has actually seen him play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Back to full fitness last month iirc. May well be wrong mind. Still going through his rehab according to his own twitter I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 6065 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Needs to play this weekend according to some Dutch guy on N-O. Sign him on Monday hopefully then. FC Twente are 3-1 down in the Europa League too so he wouldn't be cup tied if they go out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen him play but he's first choice LB for Holland when fit so he can't be that horrific Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StellarStripes 0 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I would take Pieters over Debuchy. Injury record is a concern though. I dont see Carroll coming back nor do i see us signing Douglas. Fulham have hit the wall we did with him...His agents and their fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 6065 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 You would take Pieters who is regularly injured and hardly anyone has seen play, over Debuchy who was one of the best fullbacks in the entire tournament at the Euros? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Transfer 0 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Like I said at least Pieters would reinforce the centre of our defence too, I believe. Of course I'd much prefer buying a proper CB and Debuchy.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debuchy would be a great signing aye but Pieters would give us balance and another option at CB if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Arsenal linked with TIote and Cabaye today in the rags. Sounds a bit like guesswork to me and I still don't see them spending the sort of money we'd want for either of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Park Life 70 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Man U and Arsenal could do with either of them as things stand. Especially with losing Song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lake Bells tits 1 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 There are better midfielders than cabaye available for the prices quoted. He is a good player but a bit hyped if you ask me. Dont get me wrong he is a 10-12 million pound CM, just not a 20-25 one. The important thing though is that if we were to sell him I doubt we would replace him adequately.

Tooj 17 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Mohamed Moallim @jouracule Not wanting a repeat of last year, Douglas given until Tuesday to decide future: Twente or leave, ruled out a move to Fulham.

Kid Dynamite 6065 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I would take him, Carroll and Debuchy. Sell Tiote to fund it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donaldstott 0 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 From what I saw on Saturday, Anita is not a replacement for tiote, in terms of role and ability. We can't afford to lose him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
