der Berliner 3,747 Posted September 10, 2019 Author Share Posted September 10, 2019 (edited) The twittering that pops up every now and then is this: https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1171352274855182336 It has been rubbished a few times, but it is probably for our local ITKs to verify. They have been rather quiet thus far. Edited September 10, 2019 by der Berliner Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFK-1 1,693 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 (edited) The mainstream started picking up on this in the past 24 hours or so after it had been flowing around at the likes of football insider for a few days. It would now appear to now have some credibility though obviously carries some risk. Transfermarkt says, KNEE SURGERY: RETURN UNKNOWN We can presume Gerrard etc know a lot more than that about the result so if we sign him he could be a top quality addition. I get the feeling that all this unexpected late activity involving substantial sums of money suggests that Gerrard and the board are going all out to take that title this season not next. On transfermarkt he's listed as dual purpose beiung either defensive or attacking midfielder. Guessing game as to who would make way for him. Can't be Aribo, he's going to be a great player and has to continue developing as a regular starter. Edited September 10, 2019 by JFK-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMAA 3,658 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 A really strange link from the off that made no sense at all. We've already got 8 centre mids if you include Halliday and Polster. And he can have all the flair in the world but given the fact he hasn't played regular football in years I'm not sure you'd want him in the trenches of the Scottish game with you in a tough physical away tie. I think we've learned from Kranjcar. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaffer 1,665 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 10 hours ago, ian1964 said: I'm pleased for him. He's still a good player who has been so unlucky with injuries. I hope it's works out well for him there and he makes the most of the end of his playing days. Good luck GD. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
