Tim Southampton Rover Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 If Nigel Reo-Coker's attitude is good then he could be a terrific free transfer. I've always rated him as a good player but he never quite pushed on to the next level whilst at Aston Villa. He was a great player for West Ham.

Ricky Posted May 27, 2011 Author Share Posted May 27, 2011 Reo Coker on a free will be a great signing for someone. Carew would do for me as a Benjani replacement. Much better player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always rated him as a good player but he never quite pushed on to the next level whilst at Aston Villa. He was a great player for West Ham. I'd agree, he can support right back too. With the right attitude, if we could have the options of Reo-Coker, N'zonzi and J.Jones in the middle, it'd make us very strong. I believe our creativity will come from out wide, but also having 2 of those 3 in the middle offers Formica or Rochina a chance to have a little more freedom if they were to enter the first team.

Nelsta Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 According to Reo-Cocker, he didnt want to sign a contract as champions league clubs are after signing him. Apparentley Borussia Dortmund want him. Again According to Reo-Cocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Southampton Rover Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 He'll probably have a shock in the next few months when none of the top sides come in for him. He'll probably end up signing for someone like Stoke instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom Tom Posted May 27, 2011 Backroom Share Posted May 27, 2011 Not sure we were ever keen but surely Benjani turned out to be a better signing than Beattie! Glad we never got Zigic about the best player we have been linked with in recent years is Cardoza (or is it Cardozo?) Wonder if we'll see the fastest Bulgarian in history at next years olympics?

thenodrog Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Think Piquionne has looked decent so far. I do too but unfortunately his performance will be judged against the backdrop of relegation. I think Lewandowski has won a Champions medal with Borussia Dortmund winning the German Bundesliga. I've still not got over us not signing Di Santo I'm still mystified why Chelsea did! No doubt a few palms were greased along the line with the russians ill gotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More like a RSC replacement 1 for 1 cos that'll likely be his wage demands. Reo Coker is OK but if we can get J Jones we'll not need him. However if we are able to dislodge Grella, Andrews and Dunny then he'd be perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie Keane did well, well at least he did his best to keep Rovers up ! I'm saying this just so S-15 dpesn't have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tcj_jones Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 We were in for Jelavic not long ago and I thought to myself the other day that maybe we missed out there. According to Wiki - 27 apps / 19 goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
