*LIAM ROSENIOR SIGNS, SEOL GOES OTHER WAY*

After 2 defeats?! I don't think we've "come to the stage" where we can reach any firm conclusions about anything.

The fact that Rosenior has played in a number of different positions is a positive for me. That's all I was highlighting.

Platypuss · by **Platypuss** » 02 Sep 2007 12:07

Two goals in five games tells far more - our wings really aren't working and/or aren't being allowed to work.

Royal Rother · by **Royal Rother** » 02 Sep 2007 12:11

Well, I can agree with that. Still, Oster should be back soon.

Platypuss · by **Platypuss** » 02 Sep 2007 12:17

Well that's alright then.

Only neutral?

Very happy with this deal. Rosenior should be a good prospect. Seol had the ability but only showed effort when he felt like it.

Was it Rosenior who was involved in a bit of an argument with one of his teammates when we beat Fulham 1-0 at Craven Cottage last season?

Platypuss Do you not think we've come to the stage where we really need to start playing people in their natural positions? Have we learned nothing?

The problem is while we started the season with three right wingers on our books, none have been available for a couple of games. You can argue about whether Seol should have been kept, but if your three RWs aren't available, what are you going to do but (a) play a junior or (b) play an experienced player out of place?

Or (c) raid the tv money coffers before the window closed and sign another decent right winger, either permanently or on loan.

Royal Rother Well, I can agree with that. Still, Oster should be back soon.

Ha ha, you sarcastic b*stard! Or are you being serious?!

I can't believe some of the crap I've heard on this site recently. Agreeing with a f*cking West Ham supporter that 90% of our fans our spastics, that they're some of the worst around. Haven't you been to away games before?? Don't you know how sh*t most of the Premiership home fans are!

And as for the second season syndrome thread, what a load of sh*te. It's far too early to judge. Far better to have a couple (we were great in every other game) of bad games now than at the end of the season.

And some of you need to think about how much money the other teams have spent - and still are sh*t! Splashing cash on players doesn't guarantee Premiership status e.g. Sheffield Utd.

End of rant.

I though Rosenier said some good things on the website - he seems genuinly pleased to be with us and appears to be a positive sort of person - hopefully he can be a spark to better things.....

Royal Rother · by **Royal Rother** » 03 Sep 2007 16:59

Well, I for one hope he can.....

Check this out..........

Fulham fans have alot of respect for Rosenior.......

He looks a great lad, a great man and hopefully for us a great player!

We definitely have the better end of this deal, because Seol is sh*te.

Sanchez has Fffd this one up!

fulham fans don't seem to rate rosenior too highly, he had a run-in with one of their fans last season, apparently he looks good going forward but can't defend to save his life and his positioning sense is questionable to say the least-he should fit right in then

Does anyone know for sure if any money actually changed hands or not. The website refers to undisclosed sums which makes me suspect we must have paid money in addition to Seol.

Just wondered if anyone knew for sure.

If no money changed hands looks like a great deal to me.

Check the first post...

"No money involved" was apparently sent in the text.

My point was if no money changed hands why does official site talk of "undisclosed fees" - seems contradictory to me.

Might be because even in a straight swap, there is a valuation which is basic to the negotiations.

The valuation would be significant for sell-on clauses such as Wolves may have had for Seol.
