I doubt he's earning much at Elche tbh.

The greed of the premier league means we sometimes lose track of the relative pinnance most teams in other major leagues pay their players outside of the top clubs.

Would fit the bill, strong physical holding midfielder that could push Westwood and more interestingly Delph further forward.

Can't see him in that position.  What we really need is a similar player to Delph and for them both to chip in their fair share of goals.

Been away for a week, I see there hasn't be a flurry of signings to improve spirits for the season. It's really not looking great at the moment.

A certain twitter member has sent him a message presumably in Spanish. John McEnroe shouting come on several times in disbelief does not cut it.

Just been looking at our squad numbers. No.23 is up for grabs. Which is also Cissokho's number??? so judging by this weird theory does that mean our No. 9 will be filled too???

I know there are others such as 25 etc.... But i can hope...no?

A couple of loanee's for me will be ok in my opinion now. As i believe(probably more like hope) the club is sold very soon.
I would also love to have this lad on loan now he is back from injury. He would get game time too. May need it too in that huge chelsea squad!!!

and maybe this lad too

nice to dream i guess...

I reckon left wing back still as Cissokho will play left side of a back 3 a lot. But gives flexibility, and means Bennett may be allowed to go on loan to Boro who appear interested.

The Carlos Sanchez link is a really interesting one, he had a decent world cup with Columbia and looked a decent holding midfielder, but can't see us actually buying a good midfielder that would make us stronger so it won't happen!

Didnt he cause an injury to Benteke??? Sanchez that is?

Some guy on Twitter's linking us to this guy;

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlos_S%C3%A1nchez_Moreno

He's gone to everton apparently for €2 mil. That's what the toffee basturds are saying.

I am going to cling to the Sanchez rumour until he goes to QPR or Everton. Just the kind of player we need. Would be great for us.

I don't think cissokho has played as a CB. I don't think Richardson will play left back in a four and he will. Thought the Sanchez link was interesting but it doesn't seem to be based on anything!

Mirror reporting interest in Claudio yacob at west brom and that he could go. We could do much worse

I can't see any substantive express and star stories about vlaar joining lazio. They may have reported others' stories

Wouldn't want Sinclair based on his apparent attitude.

I'm actually quite sanguine about Vlaar.  I just can't see us getting a bid we'd accept for him.  He's 30 (I think) and only middling sort of clubs are getting linked.  Even if he wants to go we can just let him leave next year giving us more time t source a replacement, and we always seem to manage to find a good cb from somewhere!
