    Mazzari phoned Behrami and told him that he was integral to his plans. I read it in an interview with the Swiss captain at the end of last season.

    We have been linked to about 3/4 different midfielders and with 5/6 already at the club you do wonder if its just agents talking...

    Last thing we want is players coming and then sitting around doing nothing because they usually end up being disruptive.

    Very good point, Mark. I shall nonchalantly throw that into conversation with The Boy, as if it is my own knowledge/research. Important to maintain status quo. ;)

    You could add that he played extremely well as central defender for Switzerland during the Euros, and is too valuable to lose..

    Or you could say that because he did play well it pushes up him value in the market

    This is good, yeah. OK, so it's:
    "Well, given his history with Mazzari, and of course his rise in value from his performances in the Euro group stages, he's probably worth the nod." I do have the drop on him in terms of football idiom so 'the nod' is a good one, too.

    Hmm - you've got one of those too. Last roll of the dice - tell him that Behrami is Mandarin for Deeney...

    Dja Djédjé Also came in but with Abdi, Pudil and Berghuis http://www.wdsport.co.uk/2016/08/berghuis-exit-increases-need-for-watford-to-recruit-a-playmaker/ at least 2 of the 5.

    Does that mean 3 more to go IF we sign no new players that are foreign and over 21...

    Just means they won't be in the squad - so as you say eventually let go.
