Quote from: "Chris Smith"
Before the game on Sunday Merson said that he thought we needed a "number 10" to knit it altogether.


Good old Merse. So the final piece in the Villa jigsaw would be a player just like you, Merse... if only you were still playing, Merse... can't find any players around as good as you were, Merse, we miss you....

He's right though. The obvious candidate might not cost us a bean in transfer fees but a fortune in wages and if he doesn't end up staying at Chelsea will probably leg it to Spurs or Citeh.

Who else though? I don't know. Don't think Tuncay was/is the answer.

I was a bit surprised we didn't go for Tuncay last summer.

If the scousers are still struggling for cash then Benayoun is an option.

I can see Beye going back to Newcastle now they've come back up.


Yep, Ive called that one too.

I wouldn't mind him being a down payment on Carroll either.

Bollocks, he can pay his own bail money.

I'd love us to have a go for Steven Pienaar if he did become avaliable. Persuading him to leave Everton may be slightly difficult though.


if you was really going to go to Everton then the player would be Arteta, not sure he will be going anywhere whilst Moyes is still there


 Its a shame we dont have a look outside the British Isles for the up and coming Pienaars,etc.....

Have a look at the Reserve and Youth teams, see how many of them are not British.

Speaking of West Ham I'm a big Scott Parker, think he has a good range of passing, is commited and can come up with some goals out of nothing either him or Artata would be ideally.

Scott Parker is good, but I didn't realise he'll be 30 in October.

Suggested Scott Parker before, would have liked to see him arrive last Jan in fact, as it was clear we'd need  more depth in that dept going into the second half of the campaign.

But with the benefit of a full pre season, we should probably be looking at better in all honesty.

Wouldn't be at all surprised if our main business this summer centres around the likes of Parker and Robbie Keane. Or possibly a Kevin Prince Boateng-type.

None of whom are bad players. But would they be enough to help us close the gap?

Well I wouldn't say no to Keane apart from the fact that he would probably only stick around for two years tops before he decicded to make the move to his latest dream club [-X

He's always wanted to play for Shamrock Rovers apparently.
