Wayne bridge in talks

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Didn't keep em up though did he.

What a daft statement. Any club that wants a world class full back for starters.

When was Bridge 'world class'? How many full backs in the world are on £90,000+ a week?

More chance of seeing London Bridge on the pitch Saturday than Wayne Bridge

 

[perseus]

He was at West Ham last season on loan

That was a blot on his CV

 

[We're the Stripes]

West Ham and Leicester will be sniffing around him soon I would think.

West Ham already have a LB on loan from a PL club - George McCartney, wouldn't make sense to sign another (especially a recently failed loanee from an era they'd like to forget). Leicester have Paul Konchesky, who they signed for around £1.5m. At the very least Bridge is going to want/expect to play if he dropped to the Championship. Forest are supposedly after a LB, but considering their league position and the fact they have no manager, surely we'd be a more attractive option for him?

So when you narrow down the options, what initially seemed a bit ridiculous now seems a genuine possibility, providing we can negotiate a reasonable percentage of the wage of course.

.. all the world class ones, which I think is the point he's making. (Dani Alves, Lahm, Marcelo, Sergio Ramos etc..)

 

[perseus]

I would have thought he convert to a centre back in the Lawrenson mould. He has got the strength, mobility, and got better passing ability. He did appear to be a bit left sided last and only time I saw him live. I think we would want for the rest of the season though.

Why could he not make an impact at West Ham (a blot) ?

I didnt say Bridge was "World Class". The question was who would pay £90k for a full back, and I answered anybody who wants a world class one ala Ashley Cole, Clichy, Ramos, Roberto Carlos etc.

 

[Fred Oliver - Legend]

Has he signed yet or is this another one of peoples made up bullshit rumors?

It has a very strong whiff...

Thats what i thought!

Told you there was more chance of seeing London Bridge than Wayne Bridge

Fair enough but I think what he was getting at was that paying Bridge that amount is madness!

what about Wayne London, do we have a chance?

 

[Ernest]

Another 11 pages of nothing, Monday afternoon and zippo singing

 

[Ernest]

I THINK it is SAFE to say HE won't be SINGING today

 

[Box of Frogs]

I THINK it is SAFE to say HE won't be SINGING today

I don't want him to sing - I want him to play bloody football!!

 

[Medwayseagull]

I THINK it is SAFE to say HE won't be SINGING today

You only sing when your signing. Sing when your signing! etc etc

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Have some faith Ernest.

So if Forest get Wayne Bridge, then we could get their guy, whatsisname ... Joel Lynch? Hear he's quite good.

I'd forgotten about Lynch until I watched that Forest game that was on TV not long ago, he played really well in that (though it was a horrible match). Quality player.
