Do a cheeky swop deal with Agbonlahor & N'Zogbia plus 10 millions for Zlatan ;) That is about Likely as Birmingham City qualifying for Champions League. LOL.

Think Martin O'Neill will enjoy watching Villa with Zaltan ;)

That line would be amusing were it not for the obvious irony. Gabby or Kozak as a sweetener for the lad Afobe.

I think Fonte would be preferable to Lescott as he's a little bit younger, but I think either would be a good addition for a couple of seasons. Hopefully by that time we'll know one-way-or-another whether Baker is going to cut the mustard, and Okore will have had time to develop into a top class centre-half.

Heard Keiron Richardson is off to Sunderland today. Think that would be good for all concerned.

How desperate do you have to be buy such a mediocre player back. I don't think he will help them all that much.

Back-to-back hammerings (and that's exactly what they were) from Leicester and Norwich would make anyone desperate.

Tim's been to Spain again today - is another new arrival imminent? you certainly can't fault his commitment

If you have defensive issues and the answer is Richardson at left back the rest of the back 4 must include O'Shea, Brown and Kaboul, with Cattermole to cover them in midfield...


Oh.....

Seeing the picture of him sleeping on that flight back with kids coming back from holidays around him I thought fair play to you Tim, you look like you are working your knackers off to make things better at the moment. It's refreshing to see him taking the bull by the horns so much and is clearly the driving force behind the players coming to club and not going elsewhere. Nothing like facials with Timmy.

A few months ago I saw sherwood driving back to B6 at about 430pm on a non match day and it struck me then what a hard worker he seems to be.

Agree with all that ozz.   Taking the bull by the horns in Spain is something I would prefer he avoids.   How many got killed yesterday in the bull running? Seven?

He looked completely beaten down by the job last year. For me what I really like about him is that he has really take the job to heart and it suggests he hates us not playing well or losing as much as any of us. He clearly demonstrates a lot of pride in being our manager.
