[Albion] Olivier Boscagli

[Herr Tubthumper]

He's not Finnish. He's only 27!

A few weeks in our defence he will be.

 

[Gabbiano]

Hope he removes that during games or he could get a nasty injury

Very forceful in the tackle.

 

[pigmanovich]

SSN confirming he’s coming here:

 

[albionfan37]

He's Finnish......

He’s not finnished

 

[warmleyseagull]

Oh I’m sure NSC will be able spot some significant weaknesses and within 15 mins of his debut

That’s really unfair. It will be much quicker than that.

Not keen on his name.

 

[Kosh]

I am only just now realising his first name isn't Oliver.

Quite, I thought he was called Oliver Biscotti

PSV fans felt he had played below his normal standards this season having been denied a move which he felt he had been promised by the club. An upgrade on what we have on the left side.

Somebody rated him enough to make this video.

 

[pigmanovich]

Somebody rated him enough to make this video.

So he’s not a bottom, what does that have to do with his game

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Somebody rated him enough to make this video.

I can't work out which one he is - the one fluffing the shot or the one missing the interception?
Nice soundtrack, though.

 

[Mancgull]

As he can play LB I’d say this is a good signing as Pervis’s defensive abilities are somewhat limited.

 

[Hamilton]

Quite, I thought he was called Oliver Biscotti

I thought we were ordering pizza!

Nice set of stats. Unless they are all shit over there.

If we can expect finishes like that goal on 26 seconds then we’re onto a player!

 

[clapham_gull]

He's not Finnish. He's only 27!

Our offer for him last summer was less than we ended up paying for Cashin! Barber out!

True, but we might be able to persuade an ambitious Championship club to splash out for him if we make sure they don't get to watch the video of the Villa game.

Or- what about The Leeds United? They might LEAP at the chance to sign a Premier League defender, especially one who was highly thought of in the Championship previously. Here you go, guys: you wanted an Albion centre half, and now's your chance.

 

[Dave the OAP]

I wonder who is that to replace?

JPVH, Igor, Veltman, Dunk?

at the end of the day, if we don’t get lucky and get European football, our squad will have to be trimmed

we have quite a few coming back from loan as well as the Sunderland laddie, ( who seems to have been forgotten about) and also of course those coming back from injury like the Turkish guy who stubbed his toe ( rather badly)

 

[singing4seagulls]

Amazing to see new signings in key positions being announced before this current season has even ended.

Great news this one.

Although... slightly confused we've signed a player for a gap in the team, instead of signing a bunch of more wingers and number 10s. Or young upcoming goalkeepers.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Haven't seen it on club website yet....not happening until it is

 

[A1X]

FFS if we get our transfer business done early and competently what are we supposed to madly speculate about all summer?
