We've already been in, but they told us we can have Adam Matthews instead. | |

All paper talk there's no concrete evidence we can't get van dijk, on the contrary with celtic not making cl could well increase our chances | |

Any suitors should be told to FO and try again early next season if they are so inclined. I hope the manager and Board think this way. [Post edited 5 Aug 2014 12:40]

At this rate we'll be happy with Dick van Dyke in the heart of our defence - at least it would plug a hole ;) | | | |

I agree... if we make an offer they'll be powerless... worst case he'll do a Morgan Schneiderlin... Neil Lennon admitted they couldn't compete when Ki signed... they can't pay him as much and the best they can offer him is pub football. sign him, sell Chico for the same amount and I'd be happy with that. | |

The danger is that van Dijk is not good enough or he will take time to adjust if he has been playing pub football. Too late to sell IMHO. | |

There is that risk when you buy from a pub league. | |

Then perhaps we shouldn't be buying players from a pub league to replace proven defenders at this level. If this comes off I'd have to seriously question the board and Monk's judgement. Insane if this actually happens [Post edited 5 Aug 2014 13:41]

I don't get why so many on here slate Chico. Admittedly he's an...eccentric...fellow at times, but for the level of our club, who and what we can afford, Chico is a very good defender. He's not perfect, he makes mistakes, but no more than any other of our defenders. For £2m he was an absolute steal and I think we would struggle to replace him without spending at least three times that amount. I'd be sad to see him go and I'd be worried about replacing him with a guy whose only experience is in the Dutch and Scottish leagues, and only three seasons at that. | |

Nice try mate but you're fighting a losing battle. The sheep have decided he's not good enough. No wonder we sacked that idiot Laudrup | |

Chico off as well ??? on 19:26 - Aug 5 with 8615 views | Rancid | I hope we do see Bartley alongside Ash this season.Playing with Ash always brings the best out in his partners and with Bartley we've got a superb athlete bursting to be a top centre half.A good run of games and we could be purring over him.Chico is Chico and brought the most negativity to the club since Tony Petty so I'm meh on him and wouldn't lose any sleep if he went. | | | |

Why are we selling another first team player . This is madness . | |

What's madness? Only Michu, Pablo and Davies were first teamers and Michu didn't play last season and Pablo always injured. Pozuelo and Canas are bit part players. The players we have signed are better than the ones we have let go. Fernandez from Napoli to replace Chico probably. | |

+1 At the end of his first season I thought that Chico had been just as big a scoop as Michu. Except for the red Card incident, he did very well for his first season in the PL. Our frontline looks good, but we can't afford to loose anymore first team players at the back. I could think of other fringe players that are somehow still lingering in the Club. send them on their merry way, and use the Money for: - the future Rangel replacement. I still feel that Cañas did ok when Britton need a break/injury. But it seems that he is out. Ki and Chico could fill in and maybe take over if needed. Of our CBs Chico is by far the best to move the ball forward. | | | |

Chico off as well ??? on 19:44 - Aug 5 with 8432 views | Daithejack | Well if Chico is off as well, I can only assume we must have somebody lined up to come in. Mayby theres something in the Geoff Cameron rumour, he would be handy because he can play Centre half, right back or defensive midfield. | |
