[Archived] Aurélien Capoue

[Eddie]

One would imagine, but perhaps this loan option popping up has lead to interest cooling in Rothen. I can check with my source at PSG to find out if there have been any developments on that front.

This guy sounds like a must sign. Wonder if Nantes will throw a goat into the deal?

Oh dear Shillito, that really is a cracker! The best post you have made on any thread for ages.

EDIT: for those who don't see the joke you need to read the post from the Nantes fans first.

Eddie: Do you think any of the "goats" at Nantes are worth us looking at?

I saw Capoue play quite a few times last season for Nantes. He was very quick, but a bit of a one trick pony - knocks the ball on the outside and uses his pace to get their first. His final delivery wasn't great. Big Sam has come out and said that strengthening the left side isn't a priority and as such probably won't get Jerome Rothen, so I don't see us trying to get Capoue. One player of theirs I would be interested in is Ivan Klasnic. He would certainly add a scoring touch to the blunt attack we've seen in pre-season.

So if we trust Sam on the "I don't feel as though we need strengthening in the wide positions" -statement, this is a no-goer too?

Hasn't been proven false yet

I thought the Mutton gag was pretty special too.
