Convict Colony

Lovren is utter utter class and I think we can all admit saying he was too good a player for us last season. The way he can take the ball out of the defence is quality, remember him doing like a boss v Man U away. Would be gutting to lose him but he could play for a big big european club or even Liverpool.

no wonder they were so keen to try and change it

Just a thought but didn't the Italian league finish after ours and maybe dani isn't due back for another week or so. Edit : just checked and it finished on 18th May and ours 11th. Wasn't the link earlier about him expected back from the echo as well ?

It's a bit old but a nice scouting report on Tadic some months into his first season in holland, his goal record for Twente obviously demonstrated he has worked on his shooting since this article. http://www.goal.com/en/news/1717/editorial/2011/02/04/2335220/goalcom-scouting-report-dusan-tadic-groningen-and-serbia

hahahaha this thread was going to be polar opposite of what the TS intended

hahahahahaha yeah vic will eat him for breakfast

hahahaha that is gangsta, don't get mad get even, reckon we are gonna make liverpool look stupid for paying that fee by getting some awesome players in now and we can challenge them for 6th-7th spot.

good work sir that made me chuckle

have to say i also pointed out that koeman only added him to twitter this week as i checked out who he was following last week and he wasn't there. He only follows a few footballers 3 of which are Pelle, Guidetti and Clasie

From Wiki "praised for enhancing the careers of England goalkeepers Joe Hart, Ben Foster and Jack Butland,[9] experience that encouraged new manager Roy Hodgson to invite him to work alongside Ray Clemence with the England team at Euro 2012." I'd take that

55 million.

He is in come great company in the goal team of the year in the eredivisie: In same company as Clasie, Depay, Blind etc http://www.goal.com/en/news/1717/editorial/2014/05/09/4802260/eredivisie-team-of-the-season-blind-clasie-depay-feature

I live in hope, Brazil v Chile now and I am supporting Sampoali's boys.

Old Italian striker type is better than the new school, Luca "the legend" Toni is still going and scored 20 goals for Verona this season to be joint second in Serie A, he scored 5 more than Mario. Old school italian grease-ball is back in fashion

I would also like to think that the reason we haven't signed anyone at present is that our main targets are still at the world cup playing.

Tenuous link number 462, just checked to see if Ronko has decided to add anymore people to his twitter feed and I can report he has added Jordy Classie.

am sat in bed surfing the net before a midday nap so I won't be going anywhere

Really, the dude has been perfect for us and england, didn't pimp himself out at all and has been dignified through out.

I am sure him getting the bans help liverpool keep him every summer, he truly is stupid as f.u.c.k

Not sure if this was already posted earlier (apologies if so) but i saw in the Times that we were linked with Matt Jones the Beleneses goalkeeper to be our no.2. Nice article on him from the fail last year - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2508152/Matt-Jones--Belenenses-goalkeeper-benefiting-moving-Portugal.html

Jose was joint 2nd with Adam behind Dejan as our best performing player last season according to whoscored with av 7.21 rating http://www.whoscored.com/Teams/18/Show/England-Southampton
