Keith Andrews on loan?

[kevtherev]

I really don't know what people on here expect...If we signed someone from a mid table Spanish side, aged 32 who had played 35 times for their country and played over 300 games, a lot of them at this level and above. You would all be having a **** feast. But because his name is Keith Andrews and not Miquel your all really unimpressed....Andrews is basically a far better version of Hammond, so I would say that's an improvement.

True. A loan signing from Barcelona 'B' would effectively be a signing of someone who is surplus to Manchester United's reserve team.

So has he joined up yet?

I'm unimpressed by typing 'bwfc' into Twitter and reading comments from Bolton fans saying he's the worst player they have seen play for Bolton in the Championship.

Very true. Although there is a big difference between playing for Ireland and playing for Spain. And we'd be taking someone on loan from a team we finished above last season. So it's not quite the same.

Well don't do it then.

HAS he been SINGED yet ?

Yes Somewhere over the rainbow or Abba Money Money

I won't. I've already read enough. I seriously can't get my head around why we want to sign someone not good enough for Bolton, when we are looking to be better than Bolton.

But he was a first team player for Bolton, replaced by Spearing. If we've signed him as a bench option to replace Dicker then possibly good business.

I know what you mean! It's like wanting Mila Kunis and settling for Susan Boyle.

Do we have any evidence that Mila Kunis can actually play left-back?

Yes as a replacement for Dicker, that would be good business. But I can't see a player leaving Bolton to get first team football only to replace Gary Dicker's old role; sitting on the bench.

Season long loan...sitting out tomorrow

 

[El Turi]

Did we sign him too late for him to be involved tomorrow?

Sitting out tomorrow!!!!!!!! as per my post

 

[El Turi]

Yeah I saw that. Just wondering if it was because we signed him too late or Oscar doesn't want to throw him in before he's trained with the squad.

Probably the latter.

 

[BensGrandad]

Not too late as we can sign a loan until 11.00am tomorrow I think, permanent by 5.00pm tonight..

 

[Eksman]

Looks pretty good to me. Has an eye for goal, good touch and vision.

Fantastic goals!!! Nice one

 

[Foolg]

Done a decent job in the Premiership, and scored 9 in 20 games at Ipswich a year or two back.

Out of favour at Bolton, but still a very good Championship player, an improvement on Hammond i'd say.

Good signing.
