Loans

Did didn't it? Didn't he win the Turkish League and become their club captain while he was still on our books?

..quite possibly. We never got the transfer fee, they just kept on extending his loan. Perhaps that's why we insist on the buy clause.

Not into this, loans for young players for experience is ok but teams that stock pile players are annoying, would rather just sell and re invest

I think the thing is though the likes of Oviedo and Gibson don't get enough time with us for teams to want to commit to buy. They probably see loans as the safe bet. Plus we've done our fair share of it with Arteta, Pienaar, Lukaku etc over the years when we didn't have the money maybe to take the gamble. Let's not get all high and mighty now we have some cash mate

I've just put £30 on Gibson to Sunderland. 8/1

Don't think they could afford his hospital wages never mind his normal bunce. Poor Sunderland what have they done to deserve these mercenaries raping there club, decent bunch of fans up there unfortunately and next to a club off halfwits as we are as well. Lescott ffs..... after his performances at villa last year then sending old gibbo with his white lightning to give them a touch, old man pienaar, Rodwell and on a better note aaanichebe but massively injury prone, that'll be them gone deffo
