Yoann Gourcuff

Hearing rumours he's agreed a 4 year deal with us?

Amazing if true..French international, ex Milan, Lyon etc. Attacking mid.

 

never ever ever ever ever came close to fulfilling his potential at any of those clubs.

 

Surely not ANOTHER attacking midfielder?

 

Based on today we might need it, just need that final ball in the final third.

 

But we already have Diamanti coming in.

 

Maybe just a rumour..just passing on what I heard at the ground today!

 

Yep well maybe Abdi is making way?

 

From a fan quoting summat off Twitter or someone more credible?

 

No thanks.

 

It's all over the French media in this past hour. Maybe there is something in this. My concern is his injury record. He's only managed an avg of 15 games the past 4 seasons, however in an avg of 15 games he's scored an avg of 3 goals and 5 assists, with an 86% successful pass rate. If we can somehow keep him fit, he will be a great player for us, if not he might turn out to be our version of Darren Anderton, all the talent, just always injured. He is a risk but if he Pozzo's are willing to go for it then I trust them, if of course this story is even true.

 

Was that over the PA system, because if it was, you heard more than me.

 

Probably just voices in my head..you know how it is!

 

?


...

 

I heard nothing from anybody officially connected with the club in any way, just one or two friends in the media who said they'd heard a story that we were linked with him.

We were discussing new signings and his name arose in conversation.

 

Thanks for sharing, would certainly be an interesting signing.

I am expecting us to surprise a few with a big name signing before the window shuts.
Probably will see the end of Paredes

 

There is not a ****ie bird on t'internet.

 

This bloke says it was reported in a French newspaper

https://twitter.com/castolols/status/632562938390409216

 

there's the original source of the rumour.

see if it spreads to other sources,

 

René Ruello va devoir trouver les mots justes pour convaincre l'ancien Lyonnais qui prend tout son temps pour choisir sa future destination. Montpellier, Guingamp, Bordeaux et plusieurs clubs étrangers ont également approché Gourcuff au cours des dernières semaines.

Saying Rennes are in talks, but also Montpellier, Guingamp, Bordeaux and several foriegn clubs have been interested.

 

If there is anything in this, it is stealth surpassing anything we've seen from the Pozzos yet.

 

Well found - I couldn't find a thing. Don't do Twitter!

 

According to Newspaper Casto Mercato? No such thing. I would love to be proved wrong, but this smacks of a massive wind-up.

 

Casto Mercato appears to be a bloke on Twitter with 57 followers.

 

This guy sounds fantastic, but he also makes Abdi seem like a super fit athelete, who never misses a game :doh:

I don't think we can afford the luxury of signing this guy!

 

We need a better striker.

 

We already have 3 great strikers

 

Nonsense

 

He was supposedly asking Arsenal for £80k per week two weeks ago!

 

Fair play to whoever's edited his Wiki page. Yoann Watford Gourcuff indeed :sign15:

What became of Yoann Gourcuff, the supposed successor to Zinedine Zidane?

Jesus, that is absolutely exceptional.

 

Rennes, Watford, it's an easy mistake to make.

 

This would be absolutely insane.

 

Out of our league. Close thread.
