Granero and Mbia are apparently done

[QPR17]

Unfortunately the real problem has not been addressed.

I'd ditch at least half of the aforemntioned if it meant we had just one high quality CB.

Mbia is a world class CB

Nelsen looks quality to me, and M'Bia can play centre back.

Go on, post something positive. I know it doesn't fit in with the whole cold and cynical internet persona you are going for, but you need to mix it up a little

they must have some kind of agreement with Granero already,because why do medical if you haven't discuss any personal terms? To me it doesn't make sense to do 1-2 days of medical and then notice that both parties are miles apart

Agreed, but in an ideal world that doesn´t make sense. But it has happened before that something happens regarding the signing. But let´s hope for the best, in this case.

Ditch four of those players???
Yeh right

[hal9thou]

M'Bia deal 'problems' allegedly but who knows, the supermarket dash is underway. Anything could be happening. Sellers market.

I agree Ryan Nelsen is gonna be our no1 CB (as posted elsewhere). He's a decent player. Looks like he's gonna a busy one ;)

To be honest after the years I've spent watching football I am genuinely cynical about the amount of brain power / intellect on offer in football management - I think Hughes has made some poor calls. No wonder when someone like Mourinho pops up he assumes divine status - he's capable of joined up thinking, that's rare over here. Martinez has a brain too. He just doesn't have any money to spend.. How Liverpool chose to overlook him is frankly astonishing. Just what I think.

for one high class CB, yup.

I agree we need one but I am sure they are looking to address that

I think he could have done a good job at Liverpool.

I agree Hughes has made some poor calls, but I'm convinced we're heading in the right direction. Not having a solid settled defensive backbone going into a tough September of fixtures, is more than a little alarming I have to say. But at least we're getting the raw materials in to make a good team, better late than never.

[jmelanie]

Anybody know if Mbia actually arrived at LR?

[Shania]

Or to put it more presicely; is the deal off?

[qpr]

Gotta wait for Barton deal imo

[jmelanie]

Heard nothing from Barton all day. Do you think Marseilles cancelled his twitter account as part of the deal?
