Matteo Moretto Real Racing Club de Santander and Watford are interested in Marco Pellegrino, Milan defender. The two clubs have already contacted the Italian team, which prefers to let him leave on loan without a purchase option.
20 career appearances, never played in England, no option to buy and he's just returned from two months out injured. This one ticks all the boxes.
I hear we are up against MU and Citeh for his signature and he’s agreed to take an 80% wages reduction just to come to us.
Classic Pozzo rumour story. Random player from Argentina. Name sounds familiar but isn't really. Flashing warning signs but still appealing potential. Will end up playing at Bologna or Torino in two years. God I've missed this.
With a name like that he's bound to be a hottie. Nope, just googled him, very average. Needs flowing, long hair.
What's Neuton doing these days ? Might have learnt how to defend by now. A force to be reckoned with, given the gravity of the situation ?
No the poor pun was an after thought and followed my thinking of Neuton another random latino "defender" brought in with no real professional track record, totally unsuited to an English championship campaign. At the same time as we consider moving on a young English CD who might be limited but at least knows the league and conditions, just as we did with Taylor. There seems to be no check whether a player is suitable for the job in hand, as with the Portuese wonderkid in Jan.
If this guy comes in we'll be at our limit of non-home grown players. Currently we have 10 and you can only have 11 in any match day squad. So it's unlikely we'll sign anymore NHG players if Pellegrino signs.
The limit was 11 when there were only 7 subs. Now you can have 9 subs, are you not allowed 13? I think the wording was always about 7 HG players.
We’ll sell Pollock, loan this guy in (he’ll be s***) and then come summer we’re in need of a CB again. Can’t wait.
I know nothing about this lad, but surely he's remit will be to deputise for Hoedt and to give him a breather, unless he gets injured, we won't have to rely heavily on him
Please yes. Highly talented and ear marked for a role with the selection. Reminds me of Cristian Tomero. Calm and accurate on the ball. Strong and aggressive, reads the game well already and is quick certainly more than Romero. He needs game time to develop further as any young player does. Also has that getting under the skin if the opposition too. It would be great to see him.here.
