Jim Hardie Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I am resigned to the fact that we may sell. Shame, but that's the way it goes sometimes. Sometimes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megalithic Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 His father wants him to play in Italy. Not surprising really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NERVY-OWL Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Not joking Gaz mate, heard it from two different sources. If you remember, when he re-signed for us, Man U, Man City and at least one other Prem club were in bidding wars for him (Chelsea?, Arsenal? someone like that), anyway, just done a quick net search and found this, no smoke without fire, and all that..... http://www.tribalfootball.com/articles/arsenal-man-utd-chasing-sheffield-utd-striker-diego-de-girolamo-4002704 It was in the paper the other day so not just idle gossip. If anyone offers that you'd be mad to turn it down, he's had one serious injury so who knows if he'll get another. For an untested 18 year old clubs like us just can't turn down that sort of cash, no way he's worth it yet but if they'll pay then great for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bypassblade Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I honestly thought you were saying that tongue in cheek. So is it true then grapps. On BBC website yesterday Gary, saying Man Utd & City to battle for him I think Chelsea mentioned as well. Never seen him but he MUST be some emerging talent for that kind of silly money talk.

POUNDSWORTH Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 On BBC website yesterday Gary, saying Man Utd & City to battle for him I think Chelsea mentioned as well. Never seen him but he MUST be some emerging talent for that kind of silly money talk. we had the same hype , just like this over Conner Brown, a prospect via our academy but had a serious injury, never made a first team inpact and now at Oldham. Another academy product we sold to Chelsea for £1m !! no first team impact here , and now at Barnsley. Remember Jordon Slew?.another ,ok played a few first team games, we got £1m for him, he is now rotting in Scotish football. They dont all make it, no matter what talent... This guy is very good, had a serious injury, and theres always a risk , it could happen again, if the premiership clubs are offering silly money for an unproven player, one yet to make our first team(as a regular).....snap their hands off and wish the lad all the best for the future.. you cant hold the lad back if the premiership comes calling.......and again another feather in the cap of our academy................... Yes the S6 usuals will point to us as a selling club, while of course forgeting we are a development club too!! our academy is a proven success. And perhaps the only positive area of Sheffield football the city can boast and be proud of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grappler Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 If this kid is as good as people are saying why isn't he in Uniteds first team? Been out for a year with injury Speedo, just back and played a youth game this week while getting match fit, scored two in thirteen minutes but hurt his knee, which was what put him out for a year, so he was taken off for safe keeping. All being well he will be playing the cup game on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came on as a sub last night in the Youth Cup ...Not sure they will risk starting him in the Cup Sunday G but, he might get a spot on the bench what you think ?

I would like to see him on the bench, give him a run out for twenty minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
