Pass the Dutchie

Aké is a very talented young Dutch player, but in no way close to being in the same league as VVD yet. He'd be a good player to add, but no replacement.

His biography is one injury after the other. Never managed more than a few months in a row. Hopefully this time those months can be february to june.

Definitely. Not sure how much we should care about this if it means we can win something for the first time in ages. If he's better, he should start.

You don't think he'd play the Cup Final?

I know, I wasn't being serious, but it seemed to be a surprise with Tasci (I think?) that he suddenly wanted more than expected at the last moment. I don't know if that was true or just a rumour.

After he passes his medical we'll ask him how much he wants to earn...

-------------Forster Cedric Caceres Yoshida Bertrand --------Romeu Hojbjerg ----Redmond Boufal Tadic --------------Gabba

Thanks. Couldn't see the match today. That's a wonderful strike. At least something to hold on to.

Does someone have a link to Gabba's goal?

It's also tempting to do something with a Manilow song, like 'Copacobana (At the Copa)': "His name is Mano Gabbiadini The best forward north of Havana Yes it's Mano Gabbiadini Scoring and passing are always his fashion Yes our Mano, the man we love" [video=youtube;Pth79-bpgGs]

"Gabbiadini, we accept you, we accept you one of us! Gabbiadini, we accept you, we accept you one of us!" (instead of 'Gabba gabba, we accept you, we accept you one of us!' at the start of the Ramones classic 'Pinhead')

Theresa is one lucky lady!

No pressure, Manolo. All you have to do is score 15 goals.

One of these, then? http://www.transfermarkt.com/spieler/vertragslosespieler/statistik/1/plus//galerie/0?ausrichtung=Abwehr&spielerposition_id=3&land_id=alle&wettbewerb_id=alle&seit=alle&yt0=Show

Does that count as a Romeu own goal?
