CHOPRA SET TO LEAVE SUNDERLAND FOR CITY or QPR

Chops Away ... and back in a City shirt soon???



What a twist if morning newspaper speculation is true. It would seem that Cardiff City demi-god is set to leave Sunderland on loan for a Championship club and the choice may be boliling down to ourselves or weekend opponents QPR.


Chops is privately believed to be desparate to return to Cardiff City where he enjoyed the best times of his footballing life and, indeed, City have previously tried two or three times to facilitate that but been declined by Roy Keane and the Black Cats. However he has dropped down the order and wasn't even in the Sunderland squad last weekend making a loan seem more possible.


However, the question is whether City have the muscle and clout to make a deal. His wages would not be cheap, there may even be a loan fee and if moneybags QPR are also sniffing, City would have to make a significant investment.


We can only wait and hope but it would truly grate if City have to go to QPR on Saturday with Paul Parry and Eddie Johnson up front plus kid Jon Brown in reserve facing a Rnagers team with Chopra added to it.
