Ok. just to qualify what I said. As Tsubaki said, he was playing well for Hercules. There was a problem with money for the club and the players went 2 months without being paid. It was just his whole attitude which put me off. He refused to train. Mouthed off as if he was god's gift to football. He was also fined for speeding. Actually, he'd fit in well in the prem.

I did a bit of reading and I think he was fined for speeding as he rushed to hospital because his wife was giving birth.

As for the money, well if you were not being paid would you be so wrong to go on strike?

Just playing devil's advocate mind. You're the Spanish expert Jamo. Once he signs for Galatasaray or Stoke or someone I'll happily call him a blert.

I'm an expert on absolutely nothing. But people I know connected with the club (Hercules) did say he was a bad influence on the dressing room. Maybe coz he had a bigger d**k than the other players
 
He's just a bit of a prima donna, there's a little Dutch crew of him, Ryan Babel and someone else, might be Elia, who think they are bossmen. Decent enough player, but can't see him getting on with Moyes.
 

Old rumour, couldnt get on with Sheff Utd.
Brand new account, number name, bogus story, to a website craplisted, I sense mirth on RAWK !

Heitinga loves himself too. The Dutch are seemingly full of themselves.

And don't get me started on Dutch Toffee.

Sometimes, when we're linked with some i think Moyes has just gotten bored, and gone to a reserve match in spain as i'm sure the club would pay for it if he was 'scouting' someone.
 

At what point will it sink in , we have no money, we are not signing anybody this window. nobody get it el skinto, not a pot to piss in not a fooking carrot do we have.
 
Just spoke to someone who watches Dutch football alot and knows Drenthe well (as a footballer obviously).

He's capable of being a world beater in his day, but his attitude is a bit of a mess. Moyes to straighten him out?
 
2nd signing of the day - Royston Drenthe
