Thought I'd try to get us moving the right way up the table. How can we be linked with this Benfica forward for £16m? Does anyone actually believe that our beloved Chairman wis digging down the back of his sofa as I write, or is it the case that Baines is a done deal?
Which Benfica forward? I'd heard Naismith, that Panjisomethingorother Croation fellow, Donovan, Quagliarella, and a few others. Well, we got Naismith from Rangers. It seems his knees are OK. Seems an odd transfer, but he had a really good relationship, and partnership with Jelavic, I think it could be a cracking signing, and free as well, (ignoring a signing on fee for the player). Moyes said he wanted to build around Jelavic, and this could be a decent start.

In addition, in the rumours page, talk of Rodellega. Now I do not see him as a first xi player, but as a replacement for Anichebe. We could offload him, (and his quite high wages apparently), and replace with another free player.

There has been talk of Donavon selling his home in the US as he's coming to EFC, if true and we land Peanuts without losing any of our key pleayers (Baines, Jag, Felli), then I fancy we may improve on last season. Lot's of 'ifs' in there though, but it wouldn't take much to really improve us. I think Naismith was a no-brainer on a free, have a Rangers pal who reckons he was their star man most games last season, good signing and probably means Cahill will go to China now to see out his career.

yes but if you could only have the one player , i take it you would keep felli,
Isuppose i would rather have him, just get the feeling some one will come in for him , he has said he would go, for the chance to play in europe,and more money
Well, I would rather keep Felli than have Pienaar. Both would be nice though. He said stuff of that ilk, but I think is was one of those journo conversations that are designed for silly season. He said if someone comes in for him, and the club want to sell he will go, but he hasn't said he wants to go. He is, I think, our biggest asset at the moment, I think.
