    If he's playing 4 Cardiff we've got no chance of signing him

    for what it is worth, the heading from anthony gerrerd's twitter account reads:

    I have to say i agree with the Ant Gerrard comments, we're missing him, he had goals, spirit and personality. I'd have thought we'd atleast have attempted to sign him, surprised that we didn't. He'd be my choice for captain if he were still a city player.

    Have I missed something here, is this the same Olifinjana who often went missing during our games, the same Olifinjana who was often brushed off the ball despite his size, the same Olifinjana who despite appearing for Cradiff throughout their campaign last season frustrated their fans for the same failings ? When he is on form he is decent, no more no less, trouble is he only showed his real true form while playing for us on one occasion in my opinion, the game against Stoke. sorry cant see him as our saviour, leopards don`t change their spots

    Agree. Brown had trouble getting players in and Olofinjana is over-rated, even in this division he won't improve our midfield very much if at all, I'd prefer to give youngsters Evans & Cairney more game time.

    Plus Oli isn't an NP player so when he's fit, he might get a brief run out but I think he'll be sold in January.

    Where would you play him alongside Cairney?

    If so surely we have no defensive midfielder in our side, when he has played well he has never being a DM, he was an attacking one at Wolves thats why he performed. If any of you talked to Cardiff fans most don't want him back, he was average for them.

    I really don't think he is that good, yes he adds height, but he barely uses it.

    Also Mussie - Oli is not included in this years wage budget, however the Allams are willing to pay that if NP wants Oli to be in his plans, as they do not want past mistakes to hinder what Nigel does. Therefore he can stay if NP wants him to.

    At home we don't need to have an out and out DM mate, both of them are competent defensively, and are hardly Geovanni when it comes to tracking back and getting a foot in.

    Not if they want Oli. Dont forget Gerrard goes for nowt next summer. Oli maybe the best deal Cardiff will get for AG. Gerrard is always tweeting with his City mates and he looks like he willbe on his way back up north by next summer if not in Jan. This is worth keeping a careful watch on.
