Who else thinks there has been a strange but understandable deal done that we withdraw from our attempts to sign de Guzman and they loan us Vargas?

[qprted]

not really

not really hes scored 15 goals in 30 chilean internationals but hes so inconsistent at club level,hes on big wages that qpr will pay for a year,and hes likely to get about seven goals for us,so its a no brainer

[FurtiveFox]

You think we'll score 7 goals this season?

[MYU]

You think we'll score 7 goals this season?

No he thinks he'll score 7 goals this year, not we as in the team.

[West London is Rss]

Reckon the old phone call went into Phils Beard telling him to back off De Guzman and if we do we'll get Vargas

[brightonr]

Or it could be that we just can't buy everyone.

[stationcafe]

We just use the same agents.

I did wonder about this. Unfortunately we can only guess at the machinations involved: agents, sponsors, facto, Ted........
