Piero Hincapie

[dee]

Rumoured to be our Centre Back of choice. Bayer Leverkusen bought him two seasons back and he's played the majority of games in both seasons (including in the Champions League). Left footed centre back is his preferred position but he is also an occasional full back.

Xabi is a fan and doesn't want to sell. Rumoured fee we are wanting to pay is around £40m

 

[The Nomad]

Not happening.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Not happening.

Yup, they'll keep him for a year

 

[Fabio]

We ain't getting him for 40

 

[tomasjj]

Fits the profile, but late and has that cunt of an agent.
Not happening.

 

[dmishra]

He's out with a metatarsal injury, and won't be fit till October anyway. Will be surprised if this happens.

This makes me think it is even more likely that we sign him

 

[dmishra]

Nah, we'll cite his injury and make a lowball offer, which won't be accepted. Leverkusen will rightly reason that they can get much more down the line for him when he's fit and in form.

 

[The Nomad]

I suspect this one is all agent talk to either flush out a serious bidder or get a new contract.

There is little to no chance we sign him.

Arthur Theate is one to watch though.

Under 23 - check
Left foot - check
Available - check

He would take the last NHG slot though unless we deregister someone like Adrian.

Pretty sure no de-reg required as we seem to be chasing Gravenberch and a CB. So only one place required.

You missed one box though:

Plays in Bundesliga - no

 

[Hansern]

Hasnt he got the same agent as Caicedo? Fuck him.

Don’t know if you are aware of the saying “Cutting off your nose to spite your face”? I would hope we’d deal with the devil himself if it means we get a competent LCB in before the window closes.

Similarly, you might not have come across the saying: “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results“…

True.

We need a LCB pretty fucking desperately so whatever it takes

Gravenberch won't take up a None HG spaces as he's under 21

 

[dee]

Gravenberch won't take up a None HG spaces as he's under 21

That’s my point

Gravenberch - U21
Theate - non HG

So only one space required

 

[737Max]

my bad

 

[SummerOnions]

Signing an injured CB would be comical

 

[Hansern]

Leverkusen wont sell him now.

 

[Buddha]

Signing an injured CB would be comical

Yes, hahahaha

*cries

 

[The Nomad]

It's also what I said.. Theate would take the LAST NHG slot...

Unless we wanted to dereg someone to sign someone like.. I dunno... Andre.

 

[tomasjj]

we won't have to worry about HG when we sign Bowen for Salah.

Lolz. Not happening on either front.

Has Alex Ferguson registered as an agent?

Isn't that the definition of SCM though?

Close down the camp, put out the fire.
