No thanks. As I recall this was the player that was hawking himself last season to the highest bidder, and Norwich eventually agreed to his spectacularly high wage demands. Obviously there's nothing wrong with wanting to find the best deal for yourself, but if you don't back those demands up by hitting the ground running then you look pretty much like a greedy useless fooker. So no thanks Lambo, not for me.
Few Manyoo fans on twitter saying Fletcher might be on borrowed time with LVG. Not sure if he's affordable to buy but he'd be a great loan signing.

I see that Rhodes hasn't made the Scotland squad! Another example of players being over priced! He can't even make the squad FFS.
You're probably right, but I wouldn't mind getting him in anyway, he's got a lot of potential and after a flop move to Inter, he finally looks to be fulfilling it.
Everton closing in on Eto'o. I'd love a pop at Naismith or maybe worth a punt on taking Kone off them. He looked superb 12 months ago but not sure how much the injury will have taken off him.
Naismith would be a fantastic signing, but I doubt they'd let him go. Kone, yes but he's not getting a look in and had a serious injury which can take away his pace, one of the strongest parts of his game.
Naismith would be a great signing, get him in on loan with a view to buy, and tell Blackburn to stuff their striker where the sage and onion goes.
I take it this is the very same Naismith that has bagged a goal every 6 games for Everton??? A couple of decent games and suddenly we think he can be our main man?
You have to take into account he usually comes on as a substitute, so minutes on the pitch he has a reasonable strike rate. IMO he would be a very good addition, and he has done it in the EPL, Rhodes is still an unknown quantity in the EPL.
Now then, sack rhodes off and sign an 8 million pound striker and a 5 million pound rough centre mid and we're all set!
Did I hear right earlier on Humberside. A Lancaster reporter saying that as far as he knew the deal wasn't totally dead and looked all done with the manager going across to India to discuss it with an aim to spending the money to strengthen elsewhere and then the matriarch of the owning family decided to stop the sale at the price offered as it wasn't in the football clubs best interests.
