"Skysports.com understands unsettled Blackburn striker Nikola Kalinic has handed in a transfer request at Ewood Park."
I went to Morecambe on Saturday and thought Niko played well and stayed on his feet for a change although this was helped by the ball being played into him at last and not in the air, i came away from the game thinking that given a chance this season he could at last show us why we paid a lot of money for him. Can you honestly imagine any young promising players really wanting to come and play for us at the moment? We are a f.....g joke
We have become a laughing stock!

rovers95, unfortunately, Andy Cryer just tweeted that Benjani has decided not to resign. If even he won't play for us, what are we gonna do?

that is bad news. Not because he's any good, but because if someone as bad as Benjani doesn't want to sign for us then we are screwed!

Whilst 'sky sports understands...' may be derided there can be little doubt that Kalinic doesn't want to be at Rovers. Why would he when he can't make the bench despite scoring in international games. Untested Rochina is chosen in front of him and whilst that might be a reflection of his approach in training etc, you can't question why Niko would see his future away from us.
I would like Benjani to resign - I think he's better than others seem to believe (albeit getting on a bit ). As mentioned below however Bendtner (at realistic money) would be a great buy for us as a main striker.

So kalanic has become someone we cant afford to lose you say,we cant afford to lose him i agree as we will NOT get anywhere near the 7mln paid for him,i personally do not feel he is Prem quality,he looked ok someone said against Morecambe,but it is looking ok against say Bolton or Everton,notice i didnt even mention any of the top 4/5 clubs,get 5mln for him and i would say fair enough let him go,there is another 6/7 weeks of this window left so lots of things can develope yet.

What's the point in selling for 5mil if it results in less than 10p going into the kitty?

Footballers who renew their contracts re-sign with their teams (note the hyphen). If they were to resign they would do the opposite - leave.

Things are going from bad to worse,I actually believe that we are being sold down the river.No player in his right mind would touch Rovers at this moment in time.Its like the lunatics are running the asylum!
