He said it was a done deal and would be announced in the next hour or so (at 5pm). I now feel he was either a) talking shit or b) they decided to announce it tomorrow instead.

I'm hoping it's b).

Going by Naylor's tweets i 'm incline to say A

This whole issue is sad because it was leaked , perhaps by AN or on Football Rumours.

Either way it has certainly gone ballistic on here with some posting their starting eleven with VR already signed sealed and delivered, rather sadly, and that is quite contrary to the way that GP and TB do business. If there is the possibility that an agent had an input to drum up interest then that would certainly be unfortunate but either way hope some posters may reflect !

As for an interest from BRFC, I would have to assume that was total fantasy as VR would surely, not for a moment, prefer that location to here.

Keeping my fingers crossed but no longer optimistic !

f*** this I've given up. Anything happens now is a bonus, our squad is very good as it is. Just frustrating when we appear to be on the verge of adding a world class player.

So long as aidkins dont get him i could not give a shit where he goes, but he is obviously not signing for us.It seams his agent has made a monkey out of Gus,though i hope i am wrong.

How is that obvious?

We know he's spent two days in various meetings with Gus, TB et al, and we know that he will still be in the city tomorrow morning....from that, how do you decide that it's 'obvious' he's not signing for us?

Didn't you say paul rodgers told you it was done and will be announced around 6pm? What happened there then?

Pesonally I can't help thinking Vicente's agent/s are using us as bait.

if you found out where he was staying, get 100 fans outside chanting his name, it may swing it for him

Agree about the agent.

I can't see it happening, sadly. Talk about a statement of intent though - incredible that we even gave him a medical, he must've been serious about signing for us at one point? Either that or it was one last desperate attempt to get bigger clubs interested by leaking his imminent capture by a relatively small club..

But we've been here before and won - look at what happened with Calderon!

It was in the Marca, pretty reliable I'd have thought - certainly not that f***ing rumours nonsense. Definitely a shame this site caught wind of it though, quite possible NSC hype has caused the deal to break down by bringing others sniffing around.

Has the deal broken down? As I pointed out about 6 pages ago when Gus was re-negotiating his contract last year, it took 4 weeks, so a couple of days in this instance is nothing.

In a crater in the sea.
I just came off the Palace scums equivalent to this to see what they're saying... pretty funny how much they're shitting themselves. One twat even compared him to Edgar Davids. I knew Palace fans were complete morons, but I didn't think they were that stupid.

But at least they know where Vicente plays. They still think Davids is a left back... f***ing idiots!

Calderon is not in the same league as Vicente. When he played for Alaves they were division 3. Vicente has won La Liga, UEFA cup, Cope Del Rey and is a full Spanish international of 40ish caps wanted by Real Madrid for 30 million quid.

He was a world class player just a few years ago, and at 30 has plenty left in the tank. He would easily be the biggest EVER player to don the stripes

Why is everyone now saying it's not happening? Naylors most recent tweets suggest it's happening. he said his glass is half full about it and I trust him more than all the people "in the know" on here. Be positive. I think it's still as likely he will sign.

Typical negative muppets still being negative. He's completely relocating so of course it's gonna take time. I'm still keeping the faith in Gus and Tony. Remember, if Gus wants someone he gets it. It took 6 months for CMS, 3 days for Vicente is nothing.
