G Somerset Rover Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Nick Harris of Sporting intel labelled him a '£10 million footballer' - a tongue in cheek comment about the agent fees etc that got them here. If it totalled anywhere near that figure then @#/? me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom DE. Posted January 23, 2013 Backroom Share Posted January 23, 2013 Formica contributed very little in the entire time he was here. Slow, technically poor, physically weak. His main attribute was running around a lot without achieving a great deal. On the other hand he is the new Batistuta so this could be a mistake.

T.J.Newton Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I think Formica would be a very good playmaker if he was in a team where the attacking play was built around him, I think he will do well in Italy where pace isnt too important and I wouldn't be surprised to see him have another biggish money move in the future.

pick32 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Wow physically weak, very strange comment considering he had the highest tackle success last season. Remember when people used to slate nzonzi when he clearly was our best player by a mile and is now comfortably stoke's best midfielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neophox Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Does anyone know who Appleton is interested in signing, the new PR firm is doing a great job hiding our potential targets OR? Nzonzi would have stayed had we sacked THE KEAN earlier... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1864roverite Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Mirror reporting QPR offering a double take for Olsson and Dann £7.5m for them both. I wonder if there is any scope for nicking a midfieldr off them as part ex ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDRover Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 So they value Olsson at 7.4 million then. Seems fair but I think they're paying over the odds for Dann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Would that be enough to tempt us? I'm not sure it would to be honest. I really think we'd need to get a lot more than that to make it worthwhile. If Givet and Dann both go we'd need a pair of CB's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom DE. Posted January 23, 2013 Backroom Share Posted January 23, 2013 Buy Martin Olsson for 7.5M... and get Scott Dann free! And Ricky, I'm sure we've got a spare training cone lying about that we can replace Dann with on match days so don't worry about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Jesus, if we could get £4 ,million for Dann- I'm sure he'd be a high earner as well - we should snap their hands off........provided the money is reinvested! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oklahoma Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Martin Olsson and Dann can go if Appleton has new players in. Givet is probably also leaving so 3 or 4 defenders are needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baz Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 People should learn that selling your better players, (and yes i know Im including Dann, which shows how far we have fallen), will only result in a worse team. Sell the people who arent in the 1st team and replace them with people who can get in there. Theres a bunch of portugese kids who need to go before Dann and Olsson. As for Formica, he's a bit meh, doesnt do a lot, but not the worst at the club either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueboy3333 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 According to Nixon in the Mirror Dann is a 'proven' defender. He doesn't elaborate on what he's 'proven' at, but says Dann will cost QPR £4m and Olsson £3.5m. He also says we're after Man City youngster Karim Rekik as Olsson's replacement.

Backroom Mike E Posted January 24, 2013 Backroom Share Posted January 24, 2013 Why people slag Dann off, I'm not certain. Since about November he and Hanley have been pretty damn good imo and let down by the midfield in front of them. If we can keep Olsson and Dann, then we should. Even at the expense of 7m. Other players need to go before those 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pick32 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Rekik is a cb so don't no how that will work, dann was shocking last season but has been solid this season, keep them both we need experience and there both solid players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Dann is average at best. There are many cb partnerships in the championship that are as just as good (or effective) as ours that were put together for a fraction of Dann's cost. Rather have a couple of old pros at the back in this league. Remember, players such as Nelsen, Moran, Gayle, Berg (second time) were all free transfers and were superb for us.

rickard Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 What happened to the rumour that we were after Lee Wallace from Rangers as a potential replacement for Olsson? Any truth in that? Realistic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
