Free Agents

[The Finkler]

Semi serious question .... has Theo Corbeanu got a recall option in his loan for a potential option is we run out of free agent options?

 

[Norman Bell]

I would sign him just so we can pay tribute to the late Olivia Newton John by singing his name to her tune "Xanadu"

With the farcical sniping at Goncalo Guedes , Matthuas Nunes and Nathan Collins by sadly a few on various threads on The Mix we seemingly have a number of ' experts ' already singing an Olivia Newton John classic in " You better shape up "

 

[Wednesbury Wolf]

Radio says we've talked to Daniel Sturridge.

Zag-a-do-do-do push pineapple shake the tree…

Haven't been able to recall loanees outside of the transfer window since 2016

I actually missed this one but makes sense sense tbf ... so Costa, Carroll or make do I suppose and tbh I'm not sure either of those 2 would make a huge difference ... possibly as impact subs I suppose and/or comedy value

Running out of options now ... what's the original Ronaldo up to .. could do a job for the last 5 seconds of a game I'm sure

Surely signing carroll is a joke? Stolen a living for years. Disruptive too and thick as mince

Played just 367 games at 33. Roughly the same as neves who is 25. Says it all

Avin a loff ay ya. He’s busy being a club owner, and is currently at least the size of your average match day middle aged male fan.
He’d need oxygen just running from the sideline to try and do the last 5 seconds.

 

[The Finkler]

Tbh I did spot him this season think was at a Spurs game ... I'm pretty sure he had 2 seats to himself

 

[bod101]

anyone recently retired who could be tempted to do another season?

 

[old wittonian]

Bonatini can’t play for us unless he was added to the 25 man squad.

Has it been finalised yet?

 

[Erick1011]

Has it been finalised yet?

Pretty sure those are due on Sept. 2nd when the window closed

How true. He's as ****ing injury-prone as Sasa? I can just see it - 'And Carroll jumps for a ball, lands, goes over and is out for the season'!!! Back to square one, again!

I take it that's tongue in cheek?!

As well as a Rush classic.

 

[Direwolf]

I am not convinced any of the free agents are better than what we have in Chem Campbell. He may be very young and green but at least he is fit and has a shot on him.

 

[OLDGOLD]

I am not sure they are Erick, I think there are a few days grace to allow for free agent moves etc....not of course that any well run club would need to consider such a thing

 

[Spellbinder]

I think it's the 2nd September when the window closes....I believe you need to leave some free spots by naming less than 25 if you think you might need a free agent at any point then you can use those to accommodate them....

This is the correct answer ^
That's why Bonatini, unless he was included on Sept. 2nd (unlikely) won't be able to be used in our matchday squad.

@Tring Wolf?

I wouldn’t pass the ‘no ********s’ test…

 

[Dan G WWFC]

Carroll isn't nowhere near as bad as people think. Career ruined by injuries. As a back up option he's better then nothing

I’d go with nothing to be honest.

It would be such a comedown from Costa though.. just a world apart in terms of everything but facial hair.

I’m afraid I have to disagree… he hasn’t been good for years. Terrible at Newcastle, WBA and Reading. Also isn’t a positive influence in the dressing room. It’s a massive No for me. Like others have said, I would happily go with youth players over Carroll!

 

[Cookyssweetleftfoot]

Would rather get Dean back.

He was decent at Reading and West Brom. They both wanted to keep him. My West Brom mate said he was one of the best players when he joined. Priced out of the deal. He took a massive pay cut to join them.
