I'm disappointed that he left before we got to get a chant going for him of: I-bar-bo, When the crowd say "Bo, Selecta!"
Has Ibarbo actually officially gone? His picture is still on the squad list on the website and I'm sure WD said there were still some bits to finalise still. The club haven't said he's gone so I'm assuming he's still our player unless I've missed the announcement.
Haven't seen the announcement yet either. I imagine he's still ours as they announced Diamanti leaving, no reason they'd not do the same with Ibarbo considering the deals were both the same.
Colombian press say that Nacional are waiting for confirmation from FIFA, expecting to get it early next week. He's training with them but won't be able to make his debut in their opening game tonight.
Deportivo Cali fans have now reduced themselves to swearing at us and creating a Twitter hashtag #freeibarbo as the deal is being cleared internationally for him to go there. They need to realise two things: he's not ours and they can ****ing have the guy. Looked carp as **** here
Crikey. From the way they're harping on about it, you'd think we've locked him in the safe or something and have thrown away the key.
I was looking forward to seeing his supposedly lightning pace - unfortunately we only saw him jog occasionally up and down the touchline. For every Mo Johnston or John McClelland there's a Trevor Senior signing. He was definitely a Senior.
His stand-out moment for me was when he came on for his debut at Bournemouth. First minute he tried run away with the ball after being in a tight corner near our box, failed, lost the ball and then took out their player, conceding a free kick. Summed him up for me unfortunately
He's under the Pozzo's new patio. Officially listed as "missing". Insurance claim has been submitted.
