hmmm. can't imagine why we'd want Duff to be honest.
Back up winger?

I'd rather we took a punt on a younger player for a back up winger.

Someone with pace and energy.

Nathan Redmond or Junior Hoillet.

I think Hoilett's contract runs out this season? As does the contract for people like Butterfield and Clyne, who we've been linked with.

Hoillett is and is going to be a very very good player, he'd be a great addition but I doubt it.

I think Hoilett will go to one of the top 6 sides .     Could be good for Arse ( repalce Arshavin ) and could do a job at Spurs ( redknapp was moaning about not enough wide players last night )    .   

but Duff   ,please no .

I'm not a fan of Zamora but right now we are really thin all round the squad - up front no exception. I'm happy to be linked with anyone who displaces Heskey on our bench right now!
The trouble is Heskey isnt on the bench but in the starting line up too much before he falls over.

The only players we should be looking at is "first team" replacements. We already have plenty of "squad" options. Ye that costs money but Heskey, Beye and Warnnock are coming to the ends of there contracts and that is nearely a £1m a month. We might not like it but Lerner has got to back Mcleish .........

Nathan Redmond or Junior Hoillet.

Hoillet is an exciting prospect and I'd be amazed if we had the money and the ambition to go and get him.

Redmond is still unproven but it 'd be worth it just to stick another finger up to The Noses.

Sunderland boss Martin O’Neill is ready to offer £8million for Fulham’s unsettled striker Bobby Zamora - but faces a fight to make him move from London.

O’Neill wants a new target man and thinks the England cap would be perfect for the style he wants to play to turn round the fortunes of the Black Cats.

Zamora can leave Fulham where he has had a stormy relationship with Martin Jol, but the far-travelled forward is settled in the capital.

O’Neill could push the boat out and offer top terms, but the word from Zamora’s camp is that the next move is not just about money.

So, 8m for a 31 year old. Still, he's English, so he'll be the easy, no-effort option.

Some things never change.

All that's missing is the 3 and a half year contract on £60k a week. Oh..and then never play him, obviously.

£8m for Zamora and £7m for Cahill (who's out of contract in June anyway) just highlight the fact that we should be shopping abroad, if we're planning on doing any business.
