Fucking Dabo!!!

Saw him play at Forest Green on Saturday he and Jodi Jones were the best players on the pitch IMHO.

They have released him along with Keogh today.

I think Baka (20goals) and McCann are the only ex Cov there now

 

[Flying Fokker]

Just scored again. 42 so far?

 

[shepardo01]

So, with Champions League football, could Vik decide to stay at Sporting
Remember, he stayed with us for less!!

 

[shepardo01]

*Sporting

Oooops - yes... silly me!
Will edit

No, and I suspect Sporting will want to cash in on the season he's had too.

Could well happen. We need to be prepared for no windfall this year

But I imagine he knows he can't top this year so may want the dream move before injuries derail it etc

Which big team needs a striker though?

Arsenal
Man U perhaps
AC Milan need to replace giroud sooner or later
Juventus may sell chiesa and vlahovic
Dortmund have a spot free now reus is off

Only prem clubs out of the list above would pay release clause I think

Psg want leao to replace mpabbe so not sure that's an option

Yes, a bit of a concern. His current manager is also staying at Sporting, and noticed VIk has recently started dating a Portuguese actress.

I think Bakayoko has been on loan to Dundee for most, if not all of the season.

 

[Nuskyblue]

He'd be a massive success at Arsenal playing in front of Odegaard.

That whole set up, I wouldn't be surprised for him to get more than 30 league goals for them.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Are we due another payment now Sporting confirmed as champions of their league?

 

[hamertime]

Think he will go, would be going to a team who’s in the champions league anyway. Seems quite ambitious I don’t think he could be arsed with another season in that tinpot league.

 

[Yorkshire SB]

They and he have to cash their chips now. Nowhere to go from here, only down.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

If he has made the comments I read overnight then his agent is on the private jet around Europe.

Actually I met his agent and he said they only travel with Ryan Air.

Marca have also quoted Real Madrid with an interest, if that's still the case remains to be seen.

Arsenal really do.

 

[Grappa]

Apparently Sporting have a chant with 'we stitched Coventry up' in it.
Vik dancing badly to it.

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

Arsenal really do.

Seems the logical move for all concerned.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

We needed the move its what happens

for yok we replaced him with

Simms
Wright
Mve
Saka
Thomas

Roughly - I reckon in a game those 5 could take him

 

[JAM See]

Fair play.

"We signed him on a free, the Solihull Messi"

"He's Brazilian, he only cost a million"

Nothing wrong with singing about a bargain.

Well yeah, 5 v 1 is a bit lop sided.

[Flying Fokker]

You going to a cap and sneaker party?

Yikes. Adblocker needed!

 

[shepardo01]

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Expect Sheaf to be sold then.

 

[Sick Boy]

Expect Sheaf to be sold then.

I don't see how it would stop a potential transfer.

 

[Calista]

I don't see how it would stop a potential transfer.

Would you chance 100 million euros on a player who's just undergone knee surgery, without waiting to confirm the outcome?

5 to 6 weeks takes us to July? Sounds like he will be back for pre season

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

He’s not going to go until after the Euros anyway. Big teams don’t tend to do deals while a major tournament is going on.

 

[Calista]

5 to 6 weeks takes us to July? Sounds like he will be back for pre season

Agreed, which means a significant delay to any deal, bringing greater uncertainty into our planning?

Edit: the above point about the Euros is a fair one.

 

[Kingokings204]

Yeah can’t see this has a major effect on any possible transfer. His injury record is magnificent to say the least

 

[Kingokings204]

Agreed, which means a significant delay to any deal, bringing greater uncertainty into our planning?

is 5-6 weeks significant? We have the euros and also we can’t wait all summer hoping Vik gets a move. Thats just ridiculous

 

[SonofErnie]

Edit: the above point about the Euros is a fair one.

Basing our transfer window activity on the sale of a player owned by a 3rd party is seriously flawed in the first place. Hopefully that isn’t the case.
