A shame injury issues seem to holding them back at the moment.
Should be an interesting summer transfer wise whatever happens though
I liked what I saw of Rose in the first FA cup game v Stevenage.
Not sure of your situation re Palace dealings. If you do pull it of, do you think he would fit into your side? Who plays a similar role at the moment for you?
Rose needs a season out on loan in the premiership a la Caulker or Naughton to prove himself but there's definitely potential, he always looks like he gives a shit as well, which astoundingly is often a trait rarely found in footballers.
The Palace dealings was a reference to the John Bostock saga, it wasn't that we went against the rules, as far as I understand it was that the rules weren't particularly fair, and as it stands neither party has really benefitted from the move so far but the young lads fortunes may change yet, who knows.
Zaha seems like a player who wouldn't really be able to cope with being a winger in a 4-4-2 due to the constant pressure and defensive work, seems like more of a 4-3-3 kind of guy to me, and we already have a young right-sided talented youngster who is more than capable of playing that position in Gio Dos Santos, but he's not good enough to warrant a change in formation and I doubt Zaha will be anytime soon either but as I've said, haven't seen a massive amount of the lad to be honest.
Mikecini said:Thanks for the reminder re Bostock I can remember the Simon Jordan rant now,though there have been a few.
How is news of Zaha going down on the Spurs forums?
Oddly it was a Spurs supporter (spursmad123) who brought me to BM with his news of Sam Eto'o.
