Drenthe would be perfect. Can play in a number of positions. His contract at Hercules was cancelled as they hadn't paid him.

I think he was a bit shit as well, hence why he ended up at Hercules.

Not sure. Hercules adored him though.

Wasn't he only on loan there in order to get experience, after all he's only a youngster. I'm pretty sure Real Madrid own his registration.

Spanish club Valencia have said they have reached an agreement in principle to sell Juan Mata to Chelsea.

The deal is subject to a medical, with reports suggesting the 23-year-old could join for the Blues for £23.5m.

According to marca Drenthe to have contract closed and be let go...

and thats with Real Madrid

How about any of these spurs players for loans : Wilson Palacios, Peter Crouch, Jermaine Jenas, Alan Hutton, Sebastien Bassong, Niko Kranjcar

Everton need to sell before they can buy so a few players teams would be interested in.

Unfortunately as we semingly have to trade out before purchases any moves for likes of cahill or arteta prob wont be forthcoming but they would be great signings

Speaking of Blackburn players  Martin Ollson would also be a good move

Cahill is 31 soon, as we are obviously being a bit more prudent I can't see why we'd suddenly pay a decent transfer fee and wages for someone of his age.

Personally, i'd like us to sign someone i've never heard of. We are still doing the whole, buy them from other English clubs routine. As good as the signings of Zog and Given will probably prove to be, they are obvious signings most of us could tell were on the cards. Don't we have any scouts with a passport or scouring the lower leagues?

French second division for a few hundred grand.



Blackburn must have one of those scout thingies that I've read about.

Who was the big lump in midfield for Blackburn on Sat number 15 I think, Nzoni was it?

NZonzi

I think he's a decent player. Could do worse.

He had a really good run in the first half, I was impressed with his touch for a big bloke

We were linked with him in one of the tabloids on Sunday.

I'd only really be interested in Hoilett from them to be honest.

He certainly looks there best player and one to keep an eye on. 

N'Zonzi looks decent too, but I think there's better of his type out there.

Does anyone else think AM might be keeping Ireland on the bench to force him into a move?  Even if it's only a loan if might free up enough wages to get another loan coming in, such as Parker.

N'Zonzi is a decent player but no better. His obvious advantage is his height but I don't think he's really as good, never mind better than what we already have. I think we can do better and I hope we will.
