    That'd be Jeff Hendrick - another Republic of Ireland international.

    More than likely, he's a solid player that'll be playing in the top flight before long. Given our large Irish contingent, it wouldn't surprise me if we were interested. On the subject of Derby, would Frank Fielding be a good addition if we don't get our favoured goalkeeping options?

    Fielding is on the transfer list at Derby - I'd take him as a no.2.

    Courtesy of Twitter - Figueroa made the 19th most passes in the EPL last season (1719) ahead of Baines, Fellaini & Hazard, with an accuracy of 78%.

    Quite impressive although I'm guessing that most of those "passes" were clearances that happened to find a man ;)

    Even still... That's better accuracy than most of our clearances made last Season.

    If he can score a couple per season like this one in the vid that would be ok!!!

    Starts at 1 minute 56 secs.

    When ever I see mention of his name, I also think of that goal (Also Honduras, as I lived there once)

    would be a great signing. would give us plenty of flexibility as he could play left back but could also play left side of 3 CB's.

    Can't see him playing CB in a 4 back formation as like Chester he is small for a CB, great for the left side of a 3-5-2 and as a LB though!

    From what Dave Whelan has said Figuroa wont be on Martinez's shopping list. DW expects RM will want Wigans Big 4 but will have to pay the going rates.

    Hey, Hutch, while you're about, have you got any inside opinion on the Buce to Wigan in the National Press?

    If Figueroa has agreed terms it surely has to put that idea to rest doesn't it?
