    Not convinced. He's in shocking form at Lyon and has that dodgy spine injury thing. Not to mention would probably cost our entire Jan budget.

    He's an advancement on Perch so could be alot worse.

    We need a CB, not a LB.

    True, but we can get better for less money.

    Judging by the article title it would appear unlikely...

    Cant see it myself, although im completely pessimistic after our usual transfer dealings of late.

    We need a CB more, we have Santon who is more than capable at LB until the end of the season.

    I'd even suggest we need a LB, CB, CM, RW and a striker.

    To play in Europe we do, but we arent that desperate, look how deep our squad is compared to some of the bottom half sides.

    Not exactly he has some condition which causes him to tire early in games and will probably force an early retirement.

    Not sure about him, we got linked in the summer as well which I was excited about but he seems to have been poor this season and lost form. Depending on the price which i doubt will be cheap, he could be worth a shout but 50/50 if he would be good or a flop. Also heard Arsenal and I think Roma are interested so don't think it would be likely anyway.

    Remember on one of the Newcastle video's Woodgate saying form is temporary and class is permanent.

    Your assuming the likes of Sammy, Shola, Lover etc are better than the subs they have but I'm not convinced at all.

    No but our full fit bench features players more like Marveaux, Guthrie, Williamson, Best etc than Shola, Sammy and Lover. More than adequate cover, we're just injury-hit.

    None of them are any good in my opinion! perhsps Gutherie and Marv but they are always going to be injured.

    I have to disagree there, I think the 4 I named would all be guaranteed starters for a lot of bottom half PL teams.

    Postman Pat would be an advancement on Perch.
