Beastlike central midfielder for peanuts?

Mahamadou Diarra it is then.

Quite. I cant believe he hasnt been snapped up yet.
He's exactly what we need.

Maybe it's similar to NRC in that he's asking for too much money?  Even so, I'd be disappointed if we hadn't at least asked the question to his agent yet.

Cole used to be pretty good.  Under Mourinho.  And only when he put a rocket up his ass.  Has achieved the square root of precisely fuck all since.  Bennyayoun.  I dont see it.  Always thought he was overrated, and he used to play well when it seemed he wanted to.  Kranjcar.  Fuck me.  We dont want him anywhere near Villa park.  At least Downing used to track back and try on occasions to tackle.  Its rare that Kranjcar even breaks into a sweat, and I reckon he would be outpaced by Pires.  (who I can outrun with a crocked knee, hip and back)  No thankyoo

From BBC gossip page:-

Birmingham are struggling to pay their bills and could be forced to sell more players to survive after owner Carson Yeung's assets were frozen in the Far East pending his money-laundering court case.

The obvious comedy value aside, I wonder if a Bid for Scott Dann might be better recieved given their well deserved plight?  I'd slap £8m on the table and see what they say!

The potential fire-sale at Blues should see us linked with a couple of McLeish's old charges, I'm sure. I think most of us would be happy with Scott Dann, but what about the likes of.......erm, Michel, anyone? Cameron Jerome? Anyone?

Cameron Jerome is a pile of shit!

I'd take Dann. Then we should flog Cuellar.

We should go for Alberto Aquilani from Liverpool on a seasons loan ;)

I think we should really help our neighbours out , we dont want them to be extinct .  I would throw a 3 million pound bid for Dann to help them out , Jerome could keep Villa park nice and tidy with his pan and brush and any blocked toilets can be unblocked using  Zigic and lets hope Poundland come in as their new sponsors.

Fahy and Dann would be all I'd take from Blues.

Why on earth would you take Fahey?

Most noses i know tell me he was by far their worst player last season - in a season full of shit performances.

Of course I was joking. Is Dann much of an improvement? They were relegated for a reason....

Yes he is. And they were relegated largely because they didn't have him.
