Kromkamp off to Ajax in the summer for £3m

[R A Softlad]

According to the Sunday Express.

Eh?

 

Strange one...

[R A Softlad]

Being reported as an 'instant profit' of £1m - tis indeed a strange one, unless Rafa see's Baragan as a suitable back-up to Finnan or has someone else in mind. knocking Finnan down the pecking order and therefore Kromkamp.

A completely un-backupable hint on TLW (long story) says that he's not fitting in at all with the rest of the squad, doesn't mix, always on his mobile, and also said he's off to Ajax as a result.

[R A Softlad]

Bit like Josemi then.

[Guest Jack Bauer]

Aldo was mentioning this before, saying there was a bit of a rumour.

[owenthomas]

thought he was doing ok.. looked like he'd settled in and actually looked a pretty good 'buy'.. strange one.. not that i'll lose sleep over it like..

[Cisse]

Daniel Bonera or David Navarro maybe....................

Reina said it in the FA Cup semi programme.

[Mike]

not the end of the world to be fair

[owenthomas]

he literally come out and said "he's not fitting in"? interesting..

[Guest Cardie]

Dunno, looks a good player, not great in the air if yesterday was anything to go by and looked really nervous but showed glimpses of the player who played so well at AZ.

[owenthomas]

not the end of the world to be fair

no you're right.. find it strange though - simply cos he's a cut above Josemi and i thought this would have been a dream move for him and he'd want to make a go of it..

[Guest Cardie]

Reina's comments were

 

"I know him less than the others, he is a quiet and shy person, but he is doing well and improving all the time. He's more comfortable now than he was at Villareal. We just need to give him a little bit more time. When he's on the coach he loves to talk on his phone - he's always on the phone"

[owenthomas]

ta mate..

 

that's no big thing though.. you see the players coming off the coach with their headphones on an that.. he's probably tried to strike up a conversation but they're all head banging to Linkin Park so can't hear him..

[abuusayd]

Pascal Chimbonda was being linked to us a few weeks back.........

 

Can't remember the source.

[Guest Mwillo]

its a real shame if true he looks like a decent player, but did'nt figaro mention that we were in for alves?

Been in for ALves ever since Rafa arrived.

[RafaShanks]

Agree. Technically he's superb. Alves has always been considered by Rafa for RW hasn't he? (meaning he's can't defend to save his life)

[Gerrardrules]

Kromkamp moved to Liverpool coz he was tired of being on the bench at Villareal. He saw it as a neccessary move, not completely his dream move. He thought he would play more and Rafa probably told him he could play either as right midfielder as right back. Van Basten is clearly not happy with JK choices and has to play other players in the National Team. Kromkamp probably realises Finnan will be first choice no matter what and rightly so!

 

I was hoping JK would be used in a deal with Kuyt.

[Dule]

Maybe he might be an exchange for kuyt still?

[owenthomas]

so we could go from Josemi to Kuyt in two moves?.. Rafa IS a fkin genius!!

[Barnesy_10]

Maybe he might be an exchange for kuyt still?

wasn't Kromkamp one of the reasons why Kuyt wanted to come to us? cos they are best mates or something?

am sure I read that somewhere.

[Guest Kop Lad]

Wonder what Feyenoord will think of that then?

Same reason Gerrard is going to Real don't you know
