Welcome on board the good ship AFC loon

Wonder if Sone has had some influence in getting the lad to come north ?

Sounds shite.

 

Boooooooooooooo!

 

 

 

He's a cut above I heard, JC combed through loads of players to find him;

Hopefully he gets a start (sa)soon.

Yep didn't take long...wonder if he'll be hair today, gone tomorrow

 

Any vids of this guys highlights so far?

Hopefully he manages to Gore some of McGeady's limbs on Sunday.

I had heard a snippet about this but wasn't sure if it was a Gore.

 

Too slow

Vidal became the second consecutive Manchester City youngster to sign on loan for Grimsby Town in as many seasons, following the signing of Shaleum Logan at the same time in the previous season.

 

He signed on an initial one month loan at Grimsby on the 1st September 2008, he was meant to sign 3 days previously but returned to Manchester following a Friday training session in Grimsby.Vidal made his professional debut in the clubs 2-2 draw with Chesterfield in the Football League Trophy 1st Round at Saltergate. He was used as a second half substitute, and the club went on to win 4-1 in the penalty shoot out. He made his league debut on the 6th September against Gillingham as a second half sub for Jamie Clarke. Vidal returned to the Eastlands after playing a total of five games for Grimsby in all competitions.

 

"Jav reminds me of Earl Barrett in many ways - he's a rubber man who bounces all over the place with great athleticism.. He's played for England under 19s this year and, like the rest of the lads, he will benefit immensely from playing alongside senior players" said Jim Cassell in the Official Manchester City annual 2008

 

It's fantastic that we are adding to rather than trimming the squad.

I take it Hodgkiss is away for certain then.

 

Welcome to AFC!

Welcome to AFC!

 

Heleft a couple of days ago.

 

Welcome to Aberdeen, Javan.

I hope he's worth it.

 

Attacking, athletic full back. Sounds decent.

 

Reckon we're getting him from City at a good time, more than likely to be surplus to requirements even if he is any good.

Hopefully he's not a lightweight and doesn't get brushed aside easily.

 

 

It was obvious you were going to join this shower of puns.

Toupee!

Toupee!

Hope he doesn't take long to gel with the rest of the team.

His speciality is scissor kicks and curlers.

 

 

 

We're also rumoured to be looking at Gianluigi Buffon and Alan Combe.

Shame about Hodgekiss cause he did look semi decent (in comparison to Foster) but hopefully this new boy will be good. Fingers x'd he makes as big an impact as 'Shaunney' Aluko but doubt that cause he seems a bit thick  -

"Scottish football is massive, to be fair, a very good standard.

 

"Celtic and Rangers: you've just got to look at their European success to know how big it is."

 

Hmm  1 cup each?

Seems as though he was dying to sign for us.

Who we selling in his place then.....

 

Was only ever on the fringes of the Man City team.

Not a lot on the net but i see he is on facebook

If he's any use hopefully we can get him on a permanent contract

If this guy plays a good attacking style of full-back football then we could be looking shit hot on the flanks with him and Mulgrew pinging balls in from deep. Backed up with Sone and Jamie Smith we would be unstoppable.

 

Is that better ST ? 

 

Yeah mizer, only if he's worth it!
