Barca B striker signs on "Long-Loan"...I assume The Star mean a season long loan
http://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/football/sheffield-wednesday/sheffield-wednesday-owls-land-spanish-star-1-4850225
Never heard of him but apparently has a big future and also on the grapevine theres a rumour we are in for Ross Barkley, another lad with a big future...Yeah, its sure looking good
p.s. Wasnt COG's goal a peach eh, if he keeps it up he'll keep The Machine on the bench I think, personally I'm pleased for him, he's worked hard to earn his place and when it was him that was favorite to leave he's proved to DJ that he is capable of a first team berth, and good on him, long may his form continue

Rodri Signs!

It says here regarding Barkley
http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11703/8000305/Barkley-may-be-loaned
I think a 2-3 month loan would help us till Lines returns and it'll help him get some games, everyones a winner, hope it happens !!

To be honest I dont see COG keepng madine on the bench. Madine will be keeping Pecnik on the bench. I think Pecnik will be a great player for us, possibly even a star but its going to take him time to adapt to the physicality of our game here. COG on the otherhand is exactly what we need, hes very physical and will help the likes of Pecnik with the development in this area.
I see DJ starting COG/Madine tomorrow with Pecnik on the bench.
As for the game on sat, JJ was brilliant and I liked what I saw from McCabe. He looked very comforable for a young lad on his debut. I was impressed.
I think tomorrow will be a tough match (they all are arent they!) and if we get something out of that Il be happy.

JJ was brilliant
-----------------------
Blimey...thats him done for a month or two then
Seriously though if he keeps his form then great, but we all know his past inconsistancies, just hope DJ's the man to help make him more consistant
To be honest I would change anything up top, dont mend whats not broken, in time Pecnik will adapt if we keep playing him and COG together, the guy is class and we need players like that, Madine was our star striker last season, but if theres a class player with international & world cup experience playing with a striker bangin em in for fun then we shouldnt change that just to accomadate another striker who's just come back from injury, but yeah its a tough call though as Madines quality but if COG's in hot form, dont change it...but I get the feeling that Pecnik will make way for Madine for tommorow night, in DJ we trust, its not very often an owls manager has a selection headache

For them as wants to know he as one given name, Rodrigo, and two surnames Ríos and Lozano. The first is from his father and the second from his mother. If he was English his name would be Roderick River.
Welease Wodewick!

I'm sure he will come with the sort of technique, class and quality that is associated with all Spanish players who have been trained and schooled by the Catalan style and method. He's been a regular player in Barcelona's B team, an under 21 International. Sounds like a great prospect. Barcelona's second team could probably win the Prem!!!

Sevilla sold him to Barca..4 year contract, but Sevilla have a clause to buy him back for 2 million euro if Barca don't want to keep him..
.. If Barca want to keep him, then they have to pay Sevilla 8.5 million euro..
..Barca loan him to Wednesday for his final season with an option for Wednesday to buy him..
..if Wednesday take the option to buy him..
.. that means Barca don't want him..
.. so can Sevilla exercise their right to buy him back from Barca for 2 million euro..
.. or is he going to cost us the 8.5 million euro clause

He is eligible for tomorrow's game - I think he will be on the bench though. Madine may start for Pecnick but I'd like to see the Slovene given another chance.
Better defending required if we are to get anything out of it. Derby's two goals were pretty woeful TBH - especially the first, no marking whatsoever.
Tough game...1-1
