Shame Mulumbu seems to be a bit past it, would have been a decent signing a few years back.

He's still only 28 but seems to have regressed a lot over the last couple of years. I really rated him a few years ago.

Cebellos at Tottingham was rated quite highly a while back, and still quite young.

According to various 'sources' on Twitter, we're in talks with Micah Richards.

I reiterate, 'sources'.

I know he went off the boil a bit and also went all Gabby with his added bull but even so he's a good upgrade on the Hutton/Lowton/Bacuna.

Well, let's face it. If Vlaar leaves, that physio table isn't going to fill itself.

Or he'll carry on being injured most of the time and so be of little use.

He'll fit right in with us then. Can take Vlaar's spot on the physio's table.

Sky bet suspended betting on Richards, I think he's decent and he's still only 26

I saw that the odds had tumbled. I do wonder how much can be read into that because the market for bets on who Micah Richards' next club will be is not going to be massive, one would have thought, so it would not take much money being lumped on to change the odds. I quite like Richards, if he stayed fit then he'd be a decent replacement for the blancmange one.

19 league appearances in 3 years, he's perfect for us! If he could stay fit he could be a decent signing, but it's a pretty big if, especially considering our luck with injuries over the last 4 or 5 years.

Fuck it, let's get Abou Diaby too.

We could just play him in home games only.  It would avoid all risk of injury boarding/disembarking the bus.

A few years ago he looked massively promising. I reckon he'd be good on a free.
