    Well, maybe something for January... But I'm still not convinced he's an improvement for your current squad:emoticon-0138-think

    Sean Bean looks much better in a manly pose rather than dressed as a lass in the BBC1 programme.

    He's a Sheffield United supporter with a 100% Blade tattoo on his left shoulder.

    Talking about Eredivisie Defenders, Gregory van der Wiel transferred last night to Paris Saint Germain for 6 million euro's.

    Medical pending today...

    Didn't take long, never getting my hopes up for a transfer window again.

    Really?! I'd heard good things about him... Got to be better than Williamson surely?

    Slow and sluggish, his tackling and tactics are great, very good long distance shot. But he is easily caught out in counter attacks and his composure ain't great either. In cornerkicks for example he lets his man slip away because his man marking and movement are limited. Sometimes we call players light footed, this guy is the opposite.

    But in all Vertonghen was twice the better player than him. When he left Alderweireld got exposed in the games against AZ and PSV. He was poor in those two games. Has recovered somewhat since then, but Ajax had to buy Moisander to patch their defense.
