  He's been out the limelight recently, but would'nt mind a Bid for Jordan Henderson in the summer.Him alongside Makoun would be a good partnership.If not, how about Endeler?at PSV.

 Of all the CHs we have been linked with , i still like Huth tbh.Onohua had a nightmare yday, but i still think theres a good player in there.

 I hope Walker has average games until the end of the season, and then Spuds might not be too bothered about us signing him.

How about Junior Hoilett if/when Ash goes? Often impresses me.

Um...yes. I'm struggling to stop laughing about that myself.

Hoilett to me is what Carroll is to Mazrim. Since I first saw him I rated him, really direct player, commits defenders.

Still, he's nowhere near Villa quality yet.

Blackburn fans have been raving about Hoilet for a while now. A youth level he was apparently class and is now starting to get s run of games.

If he progresses as Blackburn hope he'd be an ideal replacement.

I'd swap Milner for Young in a heartbeat.

Me too probably.

I like Ash, I really want him to stay, he's been my favourite player since he joined but if he wants to go we better get the best deal we can.

Getting Milner back would be the best.

Henderson looked decent in the first half of the season but has gone off the boil a bit recently, pretty much like most of his teammates in that regard.

He's one to watch, but he's been linked to the likes of Chelsea and Man U. I don't think Sunderland would sell to us after the fallout from the Bent deal either.

Chances are the players we could most realistically look to target might be from clubs who go down or some of the better players in the Championship, not necessarily a problem if the individual players are good enough.

The likes of Gilks, Adam, the oft mentioned Westwood, Long, Doyle, Parker or possibly Noble could all offer us something, at the very least from a squad point of view. If GH is still here, there might also be more deals like the Makoun one.

Me too, we've still got Albrighton and Downing for the wings....and Gabby.....

Failing that, Adam Johnson would do.

Can't see City being interested though, City don't play with much width.

Hoillet is Canadian but hasn't chosen a country yet as he wants to play for England, and take it from me he shouldn't go near the Canadian national team.

What gas happened to that Collison fella at West Ham. Didn't Sendo describe him as the best youngster at the hammers since Lampard (or something like that).

He might be worth looking at if west ham go down.

Been out injured for over a year so can't see any club bidding for him unless her can get back to where he was before the injury.
