Seriously Mark you did. Everytime I've watched him play over the last half dozen years I've thought of you too!
 
Also re Taylor - Oncy was big on that clown too for a while. And JonFox was all over Scott Dann for a while as well.

I've a photographic memory for SCMers championing shit defenders I do.
 
😕 I seriously don't remember, if I did, remember kids, we could have been worse off. We could have Taylor and Dawson as centre backs.
 
Actually Verdana but I also like the default font in Visual Studio 2010 named Consolas.

Seriously I know I sound a little immature but when themn decides to abuse every post I make with abuse - I can only respond with like immaturity as it maybe the only thing that 16 year old understands.

Thanks for giving programmers a bad name.

Scott Dann was the worst suggestion since someone suggested Anton Ferdinand about 5 or 6 seasons ago. Actually I think it was more than a suggestion I think we did actually bid (or at least enquire about him). He was abysmal last season and most Blackburn fans don't want him as a regular starter in The Championship!
 
I like Comic Sans MS ... its not an option here, and I have no idea where the name comes from ... sort of "Beano without French Microsoft"?
 
Have. Some. Faith.

1 - Chelsea have 1 fit striker. Torres. Do you think Di Matteo is going to be happy to have him alone as his only striker for the season? Doubtful.
2 - Where are we getting 11M from?
3 - Why would he even want to come to us?
4 - What has this twitter agent account ever got right?
 
7.5 mill for Dawson is a decent deal for Spurs.
28, injury prone but a good defender.

QPR certainly arent buying for the future.
Loads of players in their late twenties coming in on high wages, this will turn out ugly in the end.
 
1. 4-6-0, worked for Spain! 😉
2. Adam (1 mill) + Carroll (18 mill) = 19 mill - 8 mill (Dempsey) = 11 mill
3. To play
4. When was the first time you openly agreed with Fox ever? See ... miracles can happen.

Yeah i was.
As a kid though. I thought he had loads of potential.
 
I think we should be sending a man down to QPR with a suitcase full off Michael Owen style brochures.

Charlie Adam, comes with a free insulated casing, yours for just £8m.
Meet Stewart Downing, an England international, the type of player you could really uses Mr Hughes, £18m.
Now, this is Andy, what a specimen, we paid £35m, but you guys can have him for the bargain price of £30.
 
Yup, 9m fee agreed

Oh and that's the first summary of a post that's longer than the initial post

Ha, yep. i presumed the summary post was a gag. It was def longer than the initial post.

As for Dawson, yeah he's a decent player. As Keni said you could find better on the continent and perhaps even someone with a better injury record than Dawson.

Spurs got a bargain with Verthongen. He's a classy player ala Agger and Vermaelen. He should chip in with a few goal this year too.
 
I thought Scott Dann was the next carra. How fucking wrong was I?!

Ah well. I also thought David James was the best keeper I'd ever seen before he broke into the first team & seemingly forgot how to deal with a cross overnight.

I'm sure there's countless other I've gotten wrong too. There's no shame in it.

Quite so.
 
After Soldado, another player has rejected Tottenham. That said, they've been puting in big bids.

Miralem Pjanic’s agent has confirmed Tottenham made a proposal, but “both Roma and Pjanic politely declined the offer.”

Reports emerged today that Spurs had prepared a €15m bid for the 22-year-old midfielder as a replacement for Real Madrid-bound Luka Modric.

“It is true. Tottenham made a move for him, but both Roma and Pjanic thanked them for their interest and politely declined the offer,” representative Michele Gerbino told TMW.

“This is not the time to move or consider any other offers. The lad has tied himself to this project and first of all wants to do well at Roma.

“Besides, the club locked him down. Basically, he will not be moving. Pjanic had a very positive year, adapting easily to Serie A and you can see that from how quickly he learned to speak Italian. He’s very happy at Roma.”
 
1 London club and 1 Manchester club in for Llorente...

Llorente, the Spain international forward, looks certain to quit Athletic Bilbao this summer and has received a number of offers from across Europe. However his agent, Carlos Arino Bajo, told the Daily Telegraph yesterday it is “very, very possible” the striker will be on his way to England.

"Tomorrow [Wednesday] Llorente will speak to his destination,” Arino Bajo told Telegraph Sport. “It is very, very possible he will decide to go to the Premier League. I don’t know the [choice of] club at the moment but there are two [interested] clubs. One is in London, and one is in Manchester.”

Arino Bajo refused to identify which clubs have made contact with the player. However it is clear there are other interested parties: the agent had previously confirmed to the Italian daily Corriere dello Sport that Juventus were among those to have made a play for Llorente.

Intriguingly none of the London or Manchester clubs would disclose an interest on Monday. It is possible that if any do covet the forward they would prefer to maintain a public silence until they are aware of his intentions.

Much-flouted transfer regulations stipulate that clubs must first reach agreement with existing employers before approaching the player himself. That first regulatory hurdle is unlikely to have been cleared so far: Bilbao have until now responded to any approaches by stressing that there is a €36 million buy-out clause in his contract.

However, as the transfer window advances towards closure it is likely English clubs have calculated that Bilbao’s negotiating position may weaken considerably amid an unfolding Spanish financial crisis.
 
Carvalho to QPR on loan according to SSN sources.
I said to my brother last week "what's the point in QPR signing good players like Park, Hoillet, Bosingwa, Cisse etc when they still pick Ferdinand and Gabbidon at CB?" Neither of these 2 are Premier League quality. Dawson & Carvalho added to their squad would see them finish comfortably mid-table.
 
Still surprised he's 22. Been hearing about him for what's seems like forever
 
Manchester United and Liverpool in for £10million Herrera

The Daily Mail report that Manchester United are looking to beat Liverpool to the signing of Mexican midfielder Hector Herrera, who played a pivotal role in Mexico's Olympics victory.

'Pachuca sporting director Andres Fassi has announced they had had a fresh approach from United requesting permission to approach the starlet who is nicknamed 'Zorro,' the Mail report.

Whilst we more than approve of the nickname, is this just another player that Manchester United don't really need?
