3?, why 3?, we wanted QUALITY, not QUANTITY, no ambition.

 

[Linz]

One of whom is a Spanish international... at least I think that's what Foxy said.

He might have said he wanted a Spanish Omelette and I got hold of the wrong end of the stick completely

 

[silverfox]

One is confirmed as Kiki Musampa ex Man City player.

 

[Foxy]

Right...


We have Nathan Dyer on loan till xmas, with Jordan Robertson going the other way.

Kiki Musampa is "on trial" as is Carlos Valetta.

Quentin Fortune was mentioned and another couple!

Someones been busy!

 

[Robbie]

All improvements hey?

So much for wanting the right players. Oh dear.

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

'Tis like carpet bombing Robbie. One will eventually hit something!

Dyers pace will be an improvement on what we have surely?

He's always seemed to do well when I've seen him.

Better make sure the doors are locked mind

Well, I suppose sometimes it doesn't matter how fast a player is if you're bypassing the midfield

Don't get me wrong, he has always seemed a decent prospect, but he does seem a bit of a problem player. He will have my full backing on the pitch if this is true that he has signed. But I'm rather wary.....

Lets hope he can prove me wrong like Cotterill did.

Nathan Dyer

Apparently we have him on trial, with Jordan Robertson going the other way?

No worries

With the additions of Dyer and Musampa, hopefully this will see us trying to play with some width.

Dyer has a bit of a problem (here we go again). hopefully we can knock it out of him. He definitely has pace and ability, just hope the attitude doesn't overshadow them.

Carlos Valetta............. who?????? can't find any such player on google. Valletta isn't that the capital of Malta our sponsors ????? Me thinks it could be a smokescreen For Carlos Edwards from Sunderland ex Luton anall.

It was the name mentioned on the radio earlier... whether or not this was a mistake, no idea

 

[metalblade]

Yes I just heard the last bit on Radio Sheff the only name I was sure of was Dyer from Soton.

 

[Foxy]

They must have got the name wrong at the time, can't find anyone matching anything like the name that was given this morning.

Blackie had called in Radio Sheffield and mentioned a list of names on the phone.

 

[geezza1978]

[Dronfield_Blade]

Im happy with the Nathan Dyer signing he tore us apart last season when playing for southampton and every time i have seen him since he has looked a real handful with his electric pace.

 

[geezza1978]

just on official site http://www.sufc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10418~1404418,00.html

only mention of valetta/veletta/valleta/velletta is "in addition, Blackwell is also looking to boost his squad further, he is expecting to welcome four triallists on Monday. They include former Manchester City winger Kiki Musampa, Premiership winger Quinton Fortune and a couple of Spaniards."

 

[Billyblade]

Maybe its this guy and Blackie has gone to the Ron Atkinson/Dave Bassett/David Pleat school of player name mis-pronunciation.

Even though he is 33 if we Signed Juan carlos Valeron that would be a brilliant signing for us he is Quality i remember watching him while he was at Deportivo he was an Excellent player.

He's had major injury problems recently and there were rumours his career was over. He is/was a brilliant player. The Depo fans called him the "Spanish Zidane"

 

[metalblade]

Having listened to the radio clip I did notice the stammer from Blackwell as he said the name, sounds like a load of bollocks to me, I have gone through a list of Spanish players and that name doesn't exist.

Looks like the situation with Diego Bisheswar. We all did see him play vs Tienen and Helmond Sport, but club never made it official.
Bisheswar is on of Feyenoord Rotterdam best players at the moment, we missed a chance with him

Musampa on trial

Former Manchester City winger Kiki Musampa is on trial at Sheffield United. (Daily Mail)

[Kev Gee]

I think Nathan Dyer could turn out to be a very good signing for us. Hopefully we'll go back to playing like we did towards the end of the season with some balance in the side again!!

Kiki Musampa im not so sure about. But then again when Jihai signed i wasnt that impressed and he changed my opinion. Lets hope he knuckles down Also if he's on trial that means he wont appear in the First Team???

The Spaniards....Hmmm! interesting!
