    I'd take this little fella if Wigan were willing to part with him. He was a bit up and down to begin with but now looks at home in the PL. Sagna will have been having nightmares about him last night! Strong, quick, skilful, I think he is the real deal. I still think we need something in the wide areas and him, Frei and Johnson are the ones I would be concentrating on. Obviously there are likely to be some clubs with a bit more clout than us looking in their directions but you never know.

    The beauty about Moses when compared to the other two is he gives you an additional striking option also.

    Edit: I'm going to add in Hoilett too. Free and very useful. Any of those 4 would be a good buy.

    It's bound to happen but he needs to score more goals

    Does he play left or right? Could be a good backup/replacement for Dembas position.

    As much as I don't want to lose him, if we are then we should at least replace him with a Ben Arfa esque player but on the left.

    Right across the front three. I've seen him mainly on either wing, but he has been up top on occasion too.

    He can play across the front three. Very talented player but undoubtedly one of the most selfish I have ever seen on a football pitch, makes truly terrible choices at times but he's still only 21 and that will probably come with time. I'd definitely take a chance on him for a smallish fee definitely, I see to remember us being linked heavily before he went to Wigan.

    can't see us buying any players from other Premiership teams. maybe from a team on it's way down to the Championship

    Also don't want to see Hoillett in a Newcastle top. Cheating ****, bad attitude.

    I'd rather give Ferguson a chance than get moses.

    We should go after Hoilett. Cracking little player, only 21, would cost nothing! Perfect for us.

    Yes he's got a bit of an attitude problem but he's a little choir boy compared to what Ben Arfa was, and we still took him.

    Hoilett for me.

    To be honest all we need is some defenders and a CM player if Gutherie leaves.

    Id take Hiolett and Johnson.

    But I doubt we will get either. Even if Wigan go down they will still ask for silly money for Moses. In excess of £10 million I would say and I cannot believe we would pay that.

    Johnson is surplus to requirments (from what you read) but he would also be quite costly.

    Thats leaves Hoilett, for free most top premiership clubs would be sniffing around so I would suggest we wont want to get in a tug of war.

    On a Ba note.... I still dont think we will sell him either. I still think we have a 4-4-2 formation in us and tbh thats the formation I see us playing. We have been picking up results with the 4-3-3 but against so called weaker teams. Its difficult to say who we would want to replace at the minute.

    We still need defensive cover.

    I think Hoilett is the best option in terms of value obviously. He is also the one I think Mike will want.

    In terms of ability I think Frei will surpass them all. I just couldn't see us getting him out of Fulham, paying the fee, seeing off the competition. Moses would undoubtedly be expensive.

    Johnson is probably the proven one and the guy who would fit in well. The problem is the fee (10m plus) and his astronomical wages.

    Nope, we need someone a good as what we have if we're to improve. Hoilett and Moses are not it.

    Foolish comment really, they are both 21 and therefore have years of improvement. Current rate of progression suggests both will be very very good players.

    Not looking at how well they've done this year. When you are tearing Bacary Sagna a new one, its time to sit up and take note. With Hoilett, I can only assume you haven't watched our games against Blackburn this year. He has caused untold problems on all occasions and looked a cut above the rest of their team.

    Moses would be a perfect signing for us, well equipped in a front 3, although his decision making is suspect at times he's only 21 and has more good than bad in his game, bounds of potential to fill
