Krul blow for Toon fans – Arsenal, Hull, Wigan, Pompey, Makems, take your pick Tim?

Hip young thang.

Hip young thang.

H’way, h’way, it can’t be true? The deviants down the road are scavenging from our rotting squad? To be honest, I’m not sure where the rumour has materialised from but it’s said that they have joined a group of potential suitors for the highly-rated young Dutch stopper.

We’re led to believe that there were a dozen or so scouts representing top-flight clubs at the Euroborg Stadion, including those from Arsenal, Portsmouth, Wigan Athletic and Hull City who are all said to be keen on Krul.

Krul made a fist of his opportunity when he replaced Harper for the second half against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday. It went some way to further proving he’s a young fella with onion bags of potential. Bags that he likes to keep empty. He also comes across as passionate, level-headed and focused young bloke so it would be a crying shame were he to be swooped on by the vultures. Because as far as the sticks go, he looks like the future.

Krul is set to make his full domestic debut against Reading in view of Harper still recovering from his kick to the heid from our very own ever-accurate Shola Ameobi. Harps has arguably been one of the stalwarts of recent times. Standing by patiently in the background and performing admirably when called upon. It seems Krul that he should be ursurped so early into his long-awaited period of dominance of the No.1 shirt but there’s a chance Big Tim will do everything he can to keep it.

Unfortunately, that would just inevitably lead to even more attention from current and future suitors and the likelihood of him being shipped out. I was genuinely gutted that Bassong and Beye went but for some reason this would probably be the biggest kick in the teeth, if he were to be sold. Particularly, if he ended up at the dark place. Surely, the powers-that-be aren’t that heartless?

    ComradeToon,

    Whats the point in selling any player even if we do get a good price cos the money will go straight to Cashley and not into new players!

    The whole idea behind buying bright youngsters is that you get them cheap then either use them in the first team or sell them on at a large profit!

    This has already been proven with Bassong and N’Zogbia and is likely with Krul, Kadar, Tozer, Carrol and Ranger!

    The point is we cant use the money so its just decimating the squad for the sake of it!

    Dazza, it doesn’t work like that. The proceeds from the sale of club assets will remain with the club.

    hey guys, love the blog.

    anyone hear about collo signing for galatasary, just did a google search and there’s lots of forum posts in another language. Looks like he’s off, hope we get good cash for him. Thinking about it though that’ll leave us so short of decent defenders it’s unreal, we couldn’t start the championship with kadar and s.taylor as our ONLY first team defenders, could we? please mike no….

    Mike Ashley is a petulant dipstick.How he ever became a successful business man is beyond belief.
    He wants to destroy the club because of all the flack he’s getting.It’s his way of saying up yours.He wont be happy till he gets his own back.The man is a tosser of the first order.Looks like Big Al huffed him too.
    Who want’s errmm my young lads did well errmmm we have no money O’dreary.Surely Curbishley would fit the bill more than him.

    On a more cheerful note.Why don’t we name the stadium the sir Bobby Robson stadium,after all there’s a stand named after john hall and Sir Legend deserves more than him.
