Elson hooi in talks? (1 Viewer)

[higgs]

We are becoming known in Europe again happy days

 

[shy_tall_knight]

Our record over the years with Benelux players is very poor, the only good one I can think of is George Boateng, Van Gool, Rudi Kaiser, De Zoo, Dlorges, Philippe Clemente and Ellery Cairo, all a waste of time

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Boateng was a bargain. He cost us something like £250k from Feyenoord

 

[Otis]

Seem to remember people raving over a video of Ellery Cairo, which turned out to be a computer simulation from Fifa or something?

Just wondering. Do you think the FL and officials would notice if we had computer simulations on the pitch?

Be great if we could cos if we lost a game we could simply not save it and reload it back up again for a second go.

Boateng was asuperb centre midfielder for us one of our best until Gordon Strachan went to bed one night and dreamt he was best wide midfield

 

[rupert_bear]

When you watch that video you can't help but get a bit excited watching Hooi in action with him on one wing and Murphy the other with a pick from Cole, Maddison, Armstrong let alone anyone else we might get we have to believe this could be our year.

Absolutley and the fact he played most of his career in the Prem after leaving us says it all really

 

[Ian1779]

we seem to spend a lot of time looking at dutch players an never signing them

I think it's a diversion tactic... 'fact finding trip to Amsterdam you say?'

 

[junglej13]

TM has confirmed he is here on trial.

Aye, it was because he was going out of contract. Like somebody else says, he was excellent in central midfield so Strachan decided to play him right wing (to accommodate McAllister returning from injury).

i want to buy a hadji and chippo now for current team

Can't believe you lumped Boateng in with that collection of carthorses (and when I say carthorses i'm being very kind to Roger van Gool).

He hasn't he said Boateng was the only good one followed by dodgy punctuation.

 

[Hobo]

Glad TM is sticking with the policy of get the player in first on trial before making a decision

Well Van Gool was 40 years ahead of his time.....


On the beard front.

 

[Grendel]

Martin Jol was another class signing from that region

 

[Kneeza]

So he did. Apologies!

Right winger currently playing in Dutch league. Few Dutch people saying he's fast but no end product but has potential and should be a small fee or for free..
Anyone know anything else about him ?

Sounds like John Williams the "flying postman"!

 

[Otis]

Nope, sounds more like Richard Wagner's the Flying Dutchman!

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Apparently Hooi is Russian slang for penis.

 

[Happy_Martian]

Agree that Boateng was a success but I'm disappointed that noones mentioned another Benelux Sky Blue hero, Cédric Roussel.

 

[Rodders1]

Ritchie Partridge was a player - until every team marked him with about 3 players.

I remember David Thompson also basically trying to beat teams on his own.

Both good wingers.

 

[shy_tall_knight]

Apologies for missing Cedric liked him a lot scored 2 at Old Trafford when we lost 3-2

 

[duffer]

Got to be worth signing, if for no other reason that anytime the pub bore asks me after the game "Who Scored?", I can reply, "Yes".

No, that's just Hooi.

So, who was it then?

 

[duffer]

Yes, it was. Why do you keep asking?

 

[Otis]

Ha ha ha !!!

 

[phildownunder]

What I want to know is hooi s on first

 

[covcity4life]

looks a very handy player,could see him causing havoc alongside murphy and armstrong. bring him in TM!

 

[mechaishida]

Don't care Hooi is, if he can play, get him in.

I think that's exhausted the Hooi puns now, hopefully.

Seems to be similar to Kent from what I've seen, but at least he looks up and tries to cross it.
