He'd be perfect alongside Gibson doing Felli's deeper job so Felli can continue to do his more attacking job he's been doing so well! Not happening anyway - unless we've found a pot of gold somewhere!

If Tiote or Cabaye were to go - both being linked to other clubs. Contract/happy?! he wouldn't be the 1st to say that one day and have his head turned the next.

Newcastle (as a replacement for Tiote.)

He may as well have his own thread... http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11671/8026717

I'd say our priority should be a dominating central midfielder with distribution so Felli can continue in the attacking role he's performing so well in. We could probably do with cloning him (Yaya Toure would do if not!!!). M'Villa is the player I'm describing but the only way we could afford him would be to sell one of our best and that's not happening!

It also helps with the position they play in - it's easier to throw a 17 year old winger or striker in rather than cm/dc, unless you're a certain cesc Fabregas!

He'd be perfect ability/position wise but will surely cost at least £12m... for that reason this must be a nonsense story, maybe Rennes linking clubs to force the hand of spurs/arse.

He's no god but he's a good player who does well at us and adds something to us whilst giving it his all.

I'd have him in a flash - fits straight in. He would be handy this jan/feb/march with pienaar away with south Africa. Is he better than Gueye/Coleman/Anichebe - yes/yes/yes. Should be a no brainer.

I'm dubious of it - in the prem anyway. Napoli have made a 3-4-3 work but that included cavani, hamosik and lavezzi. 4-5-1/4-2-3-1/4-3-3 seem to be the systems that succeed in the prem - all very similar in ways/interchangeable. TEVEZ!!!

Hate to say it but RS look quite impressive but this stupid 3-5-2 City are playing is helping!!! Anyone still wanting us to play it please watch the 'best' team in the league showing how shite it is!!! I hope City start playing and turn this around - silva's on the bench, get him on!

Great player - no doubt about that... but it seems RS are paying £10m to have this lad for just 1 season with paying his full wages for a year and giving Real a loan fee, plus there's no option to buy at the end of the deal, no wonder his prefered choice Arsenal opted out of the deal.

Nixon from the mirror says we've agreed a fee with them - £2m.

Alan Hutton -> Stephen Warnock -> Neil Warnock... Thread titles mean naff all these days!!!

I listen to OCS but think Embrace are shite!!! I like Supergrass though - Shed Seven/Charlatans are similar I suppose but they're from a similar era. I've progressed to the Arctic Monkey and Kasabian and more recently the Courteeners from liking OCS, Oasis, Stone Roses, James etc...

The longer this has been since the Rodwell - first option rumours it's seemed less likely. Would have liked him but too expensive in fee and his wages will be huge too - we were only ever in the running if there had been a loan option.

Think he can play in mid too so maybe there is something in this.

Hmmmmm...

Adam himself said he wants to stay too... They've got Sahin coming in on a loan only deal - although he wants to go to arse, meant to be a top player though.

SSN saying Norwich are in for Bigila from Anderlecht - loan to buy. This is a player I would like if it's not a done deal, granted I haven't seen a lot of him but he sounds what we need.

I'd be truly gutted to pay to watch Everton play at Barca's level every week!!!

You're basing your Coleman statement on one performance 2 seasons ago - he's been found out now - head down run. I feel McClean of Sunderland may do too - we'll see in this his 2nd season. Bale however is in a different class to these he's now done it consistently in the EPL and even in the champs league. The record non win streak was him playing at lb in a much poorer/under performing spurs team - don't get sucked in by stats.

Coleman is better than Bale overall and Barca are just boring. You're trying to become a Karl Pilkington type character on here aren't you?

wow just wow!

wow just wow!
