"Talks ongoing with Monaco". Bit strange that as it seemed that was all agreed and it was just the medical and work permit to finalise.

Wonder if the above poster is right, in that his medical showed up the hamstring injury and we're renegotiating the loan fee?

Leroy

Fer

Same height as Peter Crouch. Can Traore do the robot?

Traore is an inch taller. Crouch is 6'7", Traore is 6'8".

Traore will become the tallest outfield player in Premier League history if he signs, bar none.

Martinez already said Traore's medical was fine last night.

So was Leroy Fer's.

The club still found a way of sabotaging it.

I read somewhere that we want him for next year too, so maybe the talks are about that

Julius Geezer · January 21, 2014

Probably trying to get an option for next season as well !

Just a guess though !

No troubles signing him on Champ Manager, didn't like being mentored by Jelavic though so now I will have to sell Jelavic. :unsure:

No, in that instance the club publicly stated they weren't happy with Fer's medical.

The exact opposite has happened here: Martinez has very publicly stated last night that there was nothing wrong with Traore's medical and that he will be 'fully fit in a few days'. Exact words.

If it were to fall through (and there is zero evidence to suggest it will at this point, other than maybe unsubstantiated pessimism), it won't be due to anything medical.
