Is it too soon for this? Apologies if so.

If not, then can I kick us off with this done deal for Yaya Toure?

I can't think of a single obstacle to us getting this over the line with minimal fuss. The source is impeccable.

That's the epitomy of a marquee signing.

With Lambert snapping up Westwood for the dog heads, we'll need cover so I can see this one coming off.

Exactly. A like-for-like replacement, and he's available.

Evening. Tried raising this topic myself the other night because everyone is glibly saying Bruce should be able to strengthen midfield with a play-maker, or a destroyer, or a clever passer……..but no-one knows who those players could be !
All of those types would add strength that we absolutely have a crying need for. Think of those who have passed this way in our shirts. We need an “out-ball “ player who isn’t afraid of the opposition and can run box-to-box for 95 minutes !
We need another Delph, another Milner, Platt, Taylor, Davis, Whittingham, Albrighton, Gana (dare I say )…………..but I don’t see anyone like that fighting to get game-time in a Prem squad at the moment. So should we take a punt on another crop of foreigners who take ages to settle ? Can’t do that in January !
They have to be ready to rock and roll……………but any ideas as to who they might be ??

More chance of Delph!

I do wonder who we'll get, I think it'll be limited to loans as we've got more than enough players permanently.

A winger and a midfield player. Maybe a centre-half too if there's anyone he really wants.

It will be far easier to recruit the right players if we are winning games and looking like a club going somewhere. Part of our problem for the last few years is that we've been the Last Chance Saloon.

Have we been linked with Alex Bruce yet?

I wouldn't touch Toure with a barge pole. When you have a shit attitude playing for a side competing for trophies while earning £200K+ a week I dread to think what it would be like in division 2.

A new thread has been set up for January transfer rumours and it's gone from Yaya Toure to Alex Bruce within the first page. Only the Villa.

Any funds we have should be used purely for midfield.

and up front if we are loosing people to the ACN? - Rudy hasn't done anything since August and Gabflab shouldn't be anywhere near the first team squad.
