And do we really want Jonas Olsson? I suggest not.
We should go ahead and get Douglas though even if we don't have a manager.

i didnt know we tried to sign him in January

Have our scouts got held up in Holland by any chance, as we seemed to be linked to half the Dutch league?

We have two main scouts and one, Arthur Numan, is very much based in Holland and has deep knowledge of the league.
We should have a senior scout in every major talent producing nation.

I'd rather have Olsson than Dunne.. but Douglas, as stated, should be a definite.

Poldoski signs for Arsenal

That's a great signing.  Twenty-six years old and approx £11million transfer fee.  Just the kind of player we need to get us back challenging at the right end of the table.

Sadly, you have to be at the right end of the table to sign players like Podolski.

I agree.  It's the type of signing that would have gone down a treat when O'Neill was splashing the cash.

O'Neill has almost certainly never heard of "Germany" let alone "Podolski".

He probably thinks Podolski is a yoghurt.
