Can't see it myself.. Personally I think the media has gone with the French idea mentioned in the article and N'gog is a realistic target over the likes of Benzema etc..

I'd like to rule myself out of any rumours. I've visited France twice.

I think Dougie is (quite rightly) a fan of Ngog's. Shirley we wouldn't sell him for £2m?!

Dawson on loan for the season is a done deal, what I'm hearing.

Good .... I think.

Meanwhile, hasn't it's gone quiet on the Slovakian I'd never heard of ..... or have I missed something ?


I blame Worthy.

This sounds positive and well done if there was competition for him.

According to some individual who claims to be a sport journalist, the deal is done but just need international clearance or something.

I really don't understand why so many rate N'Gog on here. He's a striker yet;

- he struggles to hold up the ball
- he can't beat a man
- he's not a natural finisher
- isn't blessed with blistering pace

In addition, he has fitness issues and very rarely plays a full 90.

But, of course, he works hard. Agreed, it's not a bad trait but one of the most overrated attributes, especially when the player can't supplement the high work rate with any other skill or attribute.

I disagree. He holds the ball up really well IMO and brings others into play around him.. Has shown this in plenty of games where we have had little to no impact up top and he has come on as sub and changed the game.. Cardiff & Charlton games for example.

I agree with the other 3 though :) he can beat a man at times though.

Of the 4 things you've listed, only one of them is actually true

Craig Dawson.. England under 21 CB.. scores plenty for a defender aswell. 5 in 10 for England if I remember rightly.
