morphine Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Which players are clubless and playing for their country? It will be a player that fits that criteria Just searched through all of these teams squads: Bolivia v Ecuador, Uruguay v Colombia, Venezuela v Peru*, Paraguay v Argentina, Macedonia v Scotland, Greece v Latvia, Austria v Ireland. ...and there are ZERO strikers who aren't contracted to a club. Anyone know what other Internationals are on currently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaliMate Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 OK. So the only 3 players who played over the weekend for their country and are free agents AND are forwards are: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahmed_Saad_Osman - No thanks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Mouloungui - No thanks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ciprian_Marica - Please god yes. Ciprian Marica I reckon. Played overnight in a 2-0 loss to Turkey. Currently without a club. Played for Schalke the last two seasons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mus-28 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Michael Mifsud played both games for Malta against Denmark and Bulgaria and is clubless. Extremely well know in Malta. Add him to the list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mus-28 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Kaiserslautern was a fairly decent team in Germany at the time, voted the best foreigner while at Lillestrom in Norway and scored a brace against Manchester United at Old Trafford. He's not Lionel Messi, but he's a fuck tonne better player than a majority of the strikers in the A-League. And due to his diminutive size it'd mean we'd be forced to play the ball on the deck instead of firing into the clouds towards like last season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballism Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Samaras? Would be huge!! Doesn't play for the national team anymore. Yes he does. He started in the match v Latvia last night/this morning. Don't see Celtic letting him go, though. OK. So the only 3 players who played over the weekend for their country and are free agents AND are forwards are: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahmed_Saad_Osman - No thanks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Mouloungui - No thanks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ciprian_Marica - Please god yes. Ciprian Marica I reckon. Played overnight in a 2-0 loss to Turkey. Currently without a club. Played for Schalke the last two seasons. Had a pretty good look at international free agent strikers and this (+ misfud) was about all I could find plus a few obscure Africans. Patty G was an obscure African tbh and he turned out pretty good so wouldn't be that surprised to see us sign one of them, could easily be another Maycon though. Doubt it's Marica because Arsenal want him. Reckon Misfud is a good shout but if we sign him I'm pretty sure the club read this forum to do their scouting. Otherwise we'll be paying a transfer fee (not that unrealistic, we were going to for Holt) or someone will be getting released by their club. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cadete Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Samaras is actually coming of his best season ever at Celtic where he was particularly good in European Fixtures so I dont see why he would leave now that the fans are finally behind him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add him to the list. Stop teasing mate cause your giving me a Chubb lol. Mentioned him earlier on in this forum a while back and would bring in the Maltese community coming to games.

Nate Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Please let it be Mifsud, my girlfriend with Maltese ancestry might actually finally go to games with me Seriously though, the bloke is an out-and-out striker with a strong goal scoring record, is yet another leader, has plenty of international experience and is 32, we've been crying out for a guy of this calibre! SIGN HIM UP! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard victory are interested in him Victory are interested in everyone being their marqueeOn another note, if we sign this striker, does it mean that we'll only have him until Engelaar returns? I'm guessing we'll use a bit of creative accounting to get a decent foreign player under the cap (e.g as a marquee injury replacement until Engelaar comes back and once that happens he'll be signed on minumum wage until the end of the season), so would presume we'll only sign a foreign striker, and go with 4 foreigners until Engelaar returns, thus enabling us to sign a higher calibre player than previously available under the cap.

Got some Maltese mates who told be they'll jump from victory to heart if we sign him Talk about fickle supporters! Does that mean they will swap back when he retires? Seriously though either of these guys would be amazing for our club. When Ange said on Offsiders on Sunday that there will be news of a marquee signing coming out of Melbourne I assumed he was talking about Victory! Go Hearters!
