    Who is the wee Portuguese midfielder we tried to sign on deadline day? Under-21 plays for Everton, but Pistol wouldn't pay what Everton where after?

    No idea. Played under Deila at Strømsgodset.

    Deila seems to have some good contacts at big clubs, City in particular. Handy.

    Surprised we didn't go for Mohammed Abu at Strømsgodset. Former City player.

    He's the Wanyama-type we could be doing with.

    He said he wanted to retire at the world cup hasn't played since and by the time he's back match fit who ever he was covering from will be back anyways it's to early for arsenal to get injuries

    Probably retired from International duty aye.

    He's still solid as he showed in the WC, just an old fashioned no nonsense CB.

    Even if we just brought him in to play European games it would be worth it.

    I think we are lacking some experienced heads.

    Darren O'Dea wouldn't be a bad backup signing. He's a decent enough player and he loves the club.

    Some of those free agents look handy, Bolanos was class at the World Cup

    This thread should be closed now since we've signed Guidetti as the thread has served its purpose.

    So it was you that planted the seed in people's minds was it :smiley-laughing002:

    In all honesty mate, I think he is very poor. Mind you, at least we could sing "Darren O'Dea, he smashed a Hun", when he is warming up. * it, get him signed, I quite enjoyed that song :smiley-laughing002:

    Ambrose will more than likely be our back up centre half this year, as I think Denayer and Van Dijk will be the preferred choice. I don't think I could handle O'Dea and Ambrose.
