Whoa hang on, we don't know for sure that it refers to a Watford player!

Could be Dortmund... Man City... QPR/Wigan/Reading...

If Emre Can, anyone can! Nope, me neither.

Maybe he's one of Freund's old boys although WTF is the point of loaning in kids unless they're on a loan-to-buy?

IIRC there was a bit of talk about Vydra in January, so wouldn't be the biggest turn up

Emre Can is a 19 year old midfielder, played a few times for Bayern and got a goal to his name, represented Germany at U21 too.

Seems an odd choice for a loan signing, mirror of the Falqué situation perhaps?

Vydra seems hit property right now, whether he's good enough for the prem is another question but it can go either way as we know with young talents.

As for Leandro, I have to say I'm not that excited about him but what do I know, if our manager wants him or if, after so long, our scouts approve of him, then I trust in that. God knows they've been sizing him up long enough.

Funny thing is, of the two's goals, Vydras came in the harder league

I'd want only one if them though, with any other striker being someone with more experience of European football, even if from a lesser league like Dutch, French or Portuguese

Hmmm, interesting that Emre Can thing. The few times i've seen him he's been playing as a number 10, am not sure how flexible he is or whether he can play a bit deeper. Seems a talent though, and setting up good relations with Bayern to borrow their young 'uns seems as bloody excellent idea.

If we can get Can on a loan with an option to sign him permanently that would be a superb start to the window.

A young turkish/german defensive midfielder. An great prospect, and I like the idea of having him as backup for Sandro, but I don't see why we would lone him as he's nowhere near enhancing our first team.

'He was given the nickname "Skipper" by national youth coach Steffen Freund.' According to Wiki, so it certainly looks like a Freund recommendation.

I thought he was a defensive mid, but what do I know.. All my knowledge about this player is based on FM..

Hmm, I guess we could just hope it's a loan with a buy option at the end of it.

He's a DM, so would make sense to bring in a young lad to replace Parker.

Aren't all of Watford's squad on loan from Udinese?

Don't see much point in loaning Can unless it's like the deal we did with Falqué when we signed him permanently afterwards. Can't see him getting much gametime at Spurs, I could be wrong but I don't think he's at our level yet, got huge potential though from what i've heard.

I remember seeing him play in the baby world cup (under 17's?) but he's still developing as a player and that was a while ago - he may have moved position! Don't know if anyone's seen much of him lately?

Emre Can played left back for Bayern at times also. Although yes he is a natural DM

Spot on. Alternative to Sandro, who will play most matches when fit. £2-3m for Parker and its the sort of deal Levy likes; young, loan with an option to buy for smallish fee.
