BigAl Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Posted January 16, 2009 Wonder if Sone has had some influence in getting the lad to come north ? Quote
Superstar Tradesman Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Sounds shite. Boooooooooooooo! Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 He's a cut above I heard, JC combed through loads of players to find him; Quote
El Padre™ Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Hopefully he gets a start (sa)soon. Quote
BigAl Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Posted January 16, 2009 He's a cut above I heard, JC combed through loads of players to find him; Yep didn't take long...wonder if he'll be hair today, gone tomorrow Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Any vids of this guys highlights so far? Quote
Kowalski Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Hopefully he manages to Gore some of McGeady's limbs on Sunday. Quote
bilbobaggins Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 I had heard a snippet about this but wasn't sure if it was a Gore. Too slow Quote
BigAl Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Posted January 16, 2009 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 Quote
Sharpie Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 It's fantastic that we are adding to rather than trimming the squad. Quote
glasgowdon Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 I take it Hodgkiss is away for certain then. Welcome to AFC! Quote
Stewart Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 I take it Hodgkiss is away for certain then. Welcome to AFC! Heleft a couple of days ago. Welcome to Aberdeen, Javan. Quote
boboisared Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 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. Quote
boboisared Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 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. Quote
minijc Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Toupee! Hope he doesn't take long to gel with the rest of the team. Quote
CtS Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 His speciality is scissor kicks and curlers. We're also rumoured to be looking at Gianluigi Buffon and Alan Combe. Quote
Biggalloot Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 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? Quote
glasgowdon Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Seems as though he was dying to sign for us. Quote
ntbear Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Who we selling in his place then..... Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Was only ever on the fringes of the Man City team. Quote
caledonia Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Not a lot on the net but i see he is on facebook http://en-gb.facebook.com/people/Javan-Noel-Vidal/681735388 Quote
mizer Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 If he's any use hopefully we can get him on a permanent contract Quote
Ajja Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 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 ? Quote
