Philippe Christanval

[Jkreffer]

I think it would be a really shrewd signing. I mean if he is on a free then we have nothing to lose.

Has anyone saw him play today vs Barnet?

Any impressions?

His Knees seem to be the main cause of injury, the link is just to one of many knee problems

Was a big fan of his during his time at Monaco and Barca - his reading of the game is superb.

If he can stay fit, and get back to his best, we'll have a player who has the potential to eventually replace Sol and forge an excellent central defensive partnership with big Phil.

Very clever move in my eyes.

If he signs, he needs to visit a barber quick sharp. When I first started watching I was thinking who's this kid with the funky hair style? but now it's emerged he's 26, he surely old enough to know better! :wink:

Interesting.

Well we do have an excellent back room staff who should be more than up to the challenge. :wink:

He carnt be no worse than pascal... He seemed ok today

Just for that and the fact that he's free we should sign him.

the back line, well the next generation looks exciting

Djourou, Phil, this dude and possibly another.

Hopefully the other will be Sergio Ramos, but don't forget that Toure's still relatively young.

 

[Flatulentcow]

I'd soil myself in excitement if Ramos signed.

 

[redemptioner]

anyway, at least we have more options after his signing, options means possible improvement, that's what i think, besides, he is not a young player anymore, and got experience..

HELL YEAH IU TOTALLY AGREE..he needs someone to hook him up with a fade real quick....Laurn or Henry should be able to take him to get it sorted out!

No need for a barber just let keown have a go with the garden sheers. :twisted:

 

[Chicago]

I'd soil myself in excitement if Ramos signed.

doubt it, he's already established into the first team over there, which is tremendous for a young player of his age. He's gonna stick it out at Sevilla and be like a Maldini for Milan

 

[GoonerGurjit]

I'm sure Sergio Ramos will be Arsène's next Sevilla target after we get Julio Baptista. :wink:

 

[Ricky_AFC]

They should just become our feeder club 8)

 

[Sandip aka Del Piero]

haha that would be the day.

I think we should be patient and see what happens with Christanval. Overmars was injury prone like hell and we kept him going till he left, so i'm hoping the same can happen with this guy

 

[jeromelee]

he is no better than Upson i can tell you that.

That's more than I can hope for cause he's just going to be a backup player. Don't expect to get great players to play rotation games. Anyway, he's on free, so what the hell. If he's anything like upson, take him on.

 

[Flatulentcow]

If he manages to stay injury-free he has the potential to be a far better player than Upson.

this is for the pure optimist "the reason why the batista deal is taking so long, is that were actually secretly also dealing for ramos" lol
