Fernando

[SWP's back]

Nigel De Jong has come out and said he "needs to make an important decision at this point in his career". Personally I'd welcome NDJ back with open arms because I thought he was great and to think we sold him for the price we did to Milan really annoys me. Fernando looks like a good player but why not take De Jong back, we know what we'll get with him, 110% passion and a solid performance every match, won't cost as much as Fernando either.

No thanks it was his choice to leave.

Also Fernando is a first team acquisition as opposed to the squad player De Jong was.

Exactly, move on.

Wonder how long it will be until a fee being agreed is announced? Surely if it's as close as mentioned then a medical can't be far off.

Probably waiting until Chelsea become interested.

I'd strongly disagree but regardless of opinions about quality, Fernando is a better fit.

To be fair, I have watched De Jong play for Miland Holland and his passing is more ambitious. I always felt that for us he was restricted by Mancini. Still, I think he is too limited for us.

By all means praise our new player (hopefully) but why slag off NDJ in the process? He played well for us, was a key part of 2012 PL winning team, always gave 100% and was a fucking good lad as well
