I was hoping we would go in for him, we were linked with him the past he really impressed me in the AFC, hes in disscussions about going to Blackburn.

He's only quite small thou isnt he? think for our DM we need someone who decent sized.

He could be a good player thou.

Hate to say i told you so!


Arsenal and Manchester United have joined the battle, and now head the chase, to sign Ghana midfield sensation Anthony Annan, skysports.com understands.

The 22-year-old international spent last week training with Blackburn but that has seemingly alerted a host of other clubs to his availability.
Rovers were in pole position to strike a deal with his Norwegian club Start, but now they look to have lost their advantage.
Arsenal and United have now both made firm enquiries and they will be in attendance when Annan features in the Uefa Cup in Norway on Thursday evening.

Annan is playing for Stabaek - the club he is currently on loan at from Start - against Rennes and over a dozen clubs are ready to check on him.

AC Milan, Atletico Madrid and Racing Santander are also keen to land the Ghana star, but he has his heart set on a move to England and it appears as if he will have a number of options.

Arsenal wanted to take the player on trial, but because of his commitments with Stabaek he could not spend more time in England after being with Blackburn.

Thats just media [Poor language removed]. Can't see Arse or Utd going for the lad.

Still on the market Schalke 04 who owns him now want to sell.
I think he is on loan to spain now. But was a great player for Rosenborg.
And would have been a good DM cover for us for not that much money.

Best player Rosenborg ever had. Class! Not sure he's good enough for top EPL clubs, though, as he didn't get to play in Schalke 04 either.
