Does Pulis go for everyone we target out of spite?

No. And in this case he probably did us a favour.

Hmm. Part of me thinks we've missed out here.

Another part of me thinks that the scouting reports say that he's not technically skilled enough for what Frank (and Parish) want to achieve.

That and he would have cost actual money to sign ;-)

 


Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune)

Perhaps he thinks the same about us

Whatever the reason is for not getting him, bidding too slow, money offered, were never interested in first place etc I think it's a shame as he has all the qualities to be an explosive player in the Prem.

There was a comment in Daily Mail that de Boer wanted him as a wing back and that is possibly what put him off signing for us.

We've obviously got some better options lined up... Just need to get them over the line

Does look pretty definitive now. Pulis welcoming here to the Albion etc. Big blow

I think we were after him but it was quickly established that it would take us 2 or 3 weeks to negotiate and undergoe a medical so he went elsewhere

Frank seems to want to turn everyone into a wing back. Like to have seen what he would have done with George Best

I tend to agree. He appears to be good for the first few games and then goes off the boil. Seen a few of those in the red and blue! Now I shall be proved wrong no doubt. That said since Dalgliesh name me one good Scottish striker - ok so there's the Doug for one!

 


Always remembering walking from the Holmesdale to the Whitehorse end at half time!

who knows about this one, we may have realized we need a ready made play in someone like Perez.

Why is it a big blow? Surely it's more of a big risk as no-one knows how he can perform in the Premiership and if we had bought him who would he have replaced?

I'm also very doubtful if Frank de Boer has actually ever seen him play unless he has been watching Leipzig reserves
