Pegasus Bridge 0 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 'Things are progressing and we're very close to a couple of deals, a lot closer now than a week ago," Roeder said yesterday. "The players we're looking at will integrate with the rest of the squad within a couple of days." Roeder also confirmed his interest in Thomas Gravesen, the Real Madrid midfielder available for £3m after an unimpressive 18 months in Spain, not helped by his part in a training ground fight this week. "We'd be interested in any player of that quality," the manager said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigsaw's Juggernaut 0 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Not exactly filling me with confidence. Its been like this for weeks. I wont be happy untill we actually officially sign players, especially a striker or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Roedster is calm and collected, he still has my confidence. Whether he'll be good enough to do the business with who he brings in is another matter, I have my doubts but I'll give him time.

Geordie Boyo 24 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 He can get in the right place at the right time with great timing to get on the end of through balls and score. He can take his man on in the box and pretty much smash it in anywhere around & outside the box too. He also seems very cool & composed on the ball while under pressure and can head a ball. Overall he would be a great signing if it were him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigsaw's Juggernaut 0 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I have to confess I have only seen him play at the World Cup and he didn't exactly sparkle. I think for 10 million he would be a bit of a gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
