VPjr Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I wouldn't dare open up this can of worms on the Canadian forum. Looks like Jono is going to the EPL...rumour has it the contract may already be signed. This article claims interest from Everton and maybe Arsenal and that while it would be a big blow to lose him, the huge transfer fee would be used to shore up many other holes in the Feyenoord lineup. here's the link: http://www.telegraaf.nl/telesport/voetbal/1769994/__Transfercarrousel_in_volle_gang__.html?p=10,1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masster Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 If this is the case, why couldn't this have happened 1 year ago!?! What could have been... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdroze Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Yeah, this makes his situation stink even more from a Canadian fan's perspective. It's not just that he happened to "feel" more Dutch, and chose accordingly. Now it looks like he may have waited just long enough to get his Dutch passport, and only after that skipped the country to bigger and better things.

jpg75 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 This move is made alot easier once he obtains a Dutch passport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdroze Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Indeed. I can think of another way to get a work permit in Britain though: playing in 75% of your country's competitive matches over a two-year period. It's too bad he was only eligible for a Dutch team where he couldn't get playing time, and had no other national team options. Oh wait-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bettermirror Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 no point in having two threads - read the JDG2 to Arsenal thread in this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
