  • He's one of our own, he's one of our owwwwn,
    Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik,
    He's one of our own.
  • His dad and uncle both played for Cameroon

    Old man Biyik.

    I remember him.

    Charlton Athletic are rumoured to have entered the Bidding for Cameroonian Centre Back Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik. The CB is highly rated in France, however, his friendship with felow countryman Andre Bikey is said to be his key attraction to Charlton whom he sees as a direct route to the Premier League.
    Toulouse have stated however that the player will be allowed to leave for no less than 1.2 Million Euros.

    Gotta be better than Oiyoo Onya-Bike from the Network ;-)
  • His dad and uncle both played for Cameroon

    His dad was sent off v Argentina in the 1990 world cup and his in uncle scored the winning goal on the 1 - 0 win.

    Was he the fella that took out Caniggia and his boot went flying. That was one hell of a red!

    Ooh only three days until I get to repost my Transfer Window Bingo post with May crossed out. Fingers crossed.
  • McShane is a shocking footballer. Makes Doherty look like Nureyev.

    As for Biyik, he looks as happy as Kanye West. I'd shit myself if I were playing against him. Sadly Africa , including Cameroon, isn't exactly awash with great defenders - they don't seem able to focus and concentrate for 90 mins and are liable to a major cock up. Sweeping generalisation I know but something to note.

  • Biyik was a £6.6m player 18 months ago but now only £1.76m - I wonder what happened.
  • Wasnt there a someone called Geta Onya-Bike that Norman Tebbitt was keen on?
  • Carlton Cole is a free agent.

    He would have to pay us!
  • disagree

    With anything specific or is that your stance on everything?

    Charlton are attempting to sign Striker Nicolas Verdier #cafc


    Wikipedia says he has played 128 senior games scoring 37 goals prior to joining his current club, Mechelen, he is 28 and 6'1". Not sure why I bothered as it is all more than likely the imaginings of an attention deprived 12 year old anyway.

    Yeah but it's a rumour. And this is a rumours page. Knock yourself out.

    I usually simply copy and paste it was the extensive research ( ;) ) that was a waste of time.

    That's quite a steretyping going on there. It's a bit like saying British players only like to get stuck in or South Americans are all fancy Dans who won't put in a tackle. We've had some pretty good African defenders in the past and some not so good. I wouldn't ever judge a player based on where they were born.

  • I usually find myself agreeing with what Swisdom has to say, but in this case I disagree. I think McShane would be excellent for us.

    He is a real 100%er every week and this was epitomised by him playing on last Sunday after Fellaini's assault left him with severe lacerations to his leg and face.

    We were linked to him under Powell, which probably means he has been scouted by Chapple so may (hopefully) have legs.

    Linked with him when Pards was in charge too...
  • I thought it would come across badly so did some more reading. Find the bleecher report for Biyik. Undoubtedly talented but a hothead, gets silly red cards and rash tackles. At 25 I'm not sure if he can be taught any different
  • Sounds like Sam Sodje - without the talented bit.

    agree about McShane .. a real trier who fell out with Bruce last season and was dropped .. Hull's brief resurgence coincided with his return to favour .. I'd like to see him sign for us .. BUT .. He's Irish and not from Le Continent

    If you screw around with the letters in his name we can probably get somthing more suitable for us...

    Just what we need! A left back!

    I suppose that depends on whether we are keeping the ones we have.
  • Agreed. With wiggo's fitness record and Fox still not convincing everyone, i wouldn't mind another
