DCFCMorris Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Former West Brom midfielder Zoltan Gera says he has received a number of offers from Championship clubs, but is still hopeful of a Premier League move. Gera told Digi Sport Television: "I've got detailed offers from the Championship but I still wait for an offer to come from the Premier League. "I wouldn't really like to play in the Championship as there are too many games and the quality is not as good as in the Premier League. "The Championship is a very tough league, if I happened to sign there then I'd choose a team where they have a playful football." Asked for an example of the kind of team he could see himself fitting in at, Gera replied: "Derby County are like this, they played in the final and they have a good manager, Steve McClaren." http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11698/9341299/transfer-news-former-west-brom-midfielder-zoltan-gera-hoping-for-premier-league-move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robglosta Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 At least another/2 good seasons in him, could be exactly what we need in and amongst the younger players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Ram Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Came on here and insulted all of us on the George Thorne thread, no thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RLACML Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 No thanks. Too many midfielder, and probably wants too high a wage. Very good player though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mafiabob Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 No thanks. Don't want a guy looking for one last big pay day, and if he was so good, why did he stay at Baggies and Fulham? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Would be an absolutely superb player at Championship level - but as has been said, 35 now. On the other hand, vastly experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cam the Ram Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Would rather the probably high wages he'd take up be used on a new right back or George Thorne to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Averages 10 league games a season over last 5 yrs, agree he's always looked good, but wouldn't like to see him sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Sagan Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I think he's had two cruciate injuries and his season/career ended at WBA recently with another knee injury. Clearly a class player, but you'd think it would be a lot of money for only a few games. What Rush said recently about our wages been spent on the players on the pitch was interesting, and Zoltan would unnecessarily erode that. Also, our current more youthful midfield overwhelms teams by our high-energy game and I can't see him being able to contribute in that way. So, it's probably a "no" from me.. But, credit to him for singling us out in the interview (was that a "come and get me" plea?) And if we did give him a contract, I wouldn't object and would look forward to his contribution next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
