ZLF 274 Posted February 17, 2013 with Tettey, now BJ signed up the final defensive midfield piece of the jigsaw could remain the much touted Lucas Biglia from Anderlecht who is now available for £4.5m instead of £8m Now that would give us a real platform to build from...

Herman 9,760 Posted February 17, 2013 Biglia keeps getting touted but nobody is picking him up. Is there something wrong with him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 274 Posted February 17, 2013 He is a quality player and for little more than we have paid for Bassong, Snoddy or Bennett shows some of the value that is in the euro leagues I suspect the touting is by his agent looking for a pay day - perhaps his expectations of wages and or anderlechts for the fee were unreasonable. Its clear he is looking for a prem league move and this is the sort quality player we should be looking at esp if the £4.5m (driven by another year closer to the end of a contract) price is accurate.

ZLF 274 Posted February 17, 2013 nothing wrong with a lot of cynicism [:)] Like VanWolfswinkel, his ability has been tracked by prem clubs, with associated links to the top clubs. No club has yet taken the chance on him and you are right, there could be another reason, my simplistic mind tends to put these sort of ills at the door of the ever present and resident evil that are agents both flogging a story to generate interest and increase their and their players pay day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
