LeChuck Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Brilliant signing. One of the exciting parts about having Allardyce is that we get these sort of signings, although I must admit I thought this summer was going to pass without it happening. I wonder where he'll play? I just think he'll be in a more important position than right back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amo Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Congratulations to Sam and company for bringing some pedigree to the club. Whether he plays right-back or converted midfielder, good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hi-jaq Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Just got back from Madrid, went for a tour of the Bernabeu & they still had him as one of their players (even had a mock up picture taken with him for a laugh!!!)... Told a Real fan on sunday night he was signing for us & he knew nothing about it... But he said he would be excellent for us, still a good player even at 33, was top class in his day, but no longer fits the mould of a Real Madrid Galactico... Welcome to Ewood Michel Salgado... I hope this turns out to be one of Sam Allardyce's old player masterstrokes... I hope we get to see this weekend at Sunderland!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S15 Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 There was a few on for his signing! Good work OJ. Finally we have a complete wildcard headcase back in the team. CF Hackburn Rover The Top can rise again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Castell Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 He has a bit of a Tugayesque hairdo as well. He must be good then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby G Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Oh yes. Quality signing. I watched him at Real, and although he isnt the player he was, he hasnt looked out of place for them to do a job. For us, without exagerrating, he should be an excellent signing, who will only improve the starting line-up whereever he plays. What does he say on his Rovers World interview?

RibbleValleyRover Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Honestly don't see the point of this signing but if Sam wants him then fair enough. Welcome to the club Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esulx Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Awaiting international clearance and he's actually playing for Real in a 'thank you' match on Monday. Let's hope he doesn't injury himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mogster Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I was just too late again Story of my life! His English is surprisingly good but he's been learning from his English sister-in-law. He had a chance to come to Chelsea 5 years ago but turned it down. Seems like a nice enough guy - but I believe this isn't the case on the pitch. I think this is a great signing for the club. This guy is a superstar and even if he never played a game he would pass on his positive, winning mentality to those around him. As Sam showed at Bolton, once you sign one big name (old or not) it makes it less unusual for big names to follow in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gav Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Hopefully he will be a decent signing and a fans favorite also. I think the board should be applauded for making the funds available for the manager to pay Salgados wages. Clearly its outside what they budgeted for and that has caused some problems, but they’ve backed the manager here and that should be applauded.
