We won't be going the route of signing top class players again anytime soon, but using similar logic to the Senderos deal, he'd be an improvement on most of our options in the centre of the park. Can weigh in with goals from midfield (something we've been crying out for) and a decent passer of the ball too. Has he been released?I suppose he's an upgrade on KEA, Sylla and possibly even Westwood. Hardly inspiring but he would improve us in the middle. Not released.But seeing as they only signed him for £2.5 million and he barely features for them, I don't see how they could demand the earth for him.Though it may depend on what they do vis a vis Barry and McCarthy this summer. He'd be an improvement on KEA and Westwood and he isn't as much of a dick as Barton.

If we can get say £4m out of Yanited for Styrofoam Ron then that should fund the Lescott wages . I'd say that's a win win situation.

It's not strikers we need Bronte, it's midfielders and full backs, oh, and someone who can put the ball in the box. Still, what do I know? I'm sure Mr Lambert knows what he's doing!!!
Moses seems to be another Scott Sinclair or Sidwell.Someone who does look decent at a lower club, moves to a top 4 club and bench warms for a season, is made for life financially and then either lacks fitness or motivation when they move away.I'd much rather look at loaning in a young up and coming player from one of these clubs who hasn't been corrupted yet by fame and money.I was thinking with us signing Senderos why not go instead for someone like Tomas Kalas on loan from Chelsea? He looked very composed on his debut at Anfield.
