Pato isn't far off from joining Chelsea, so maybe that will free up Remy in the coming days.

Milan fans are upset about it, flags outside the stadium - 'baby come back'

I really could understand and accept the criticism of what might or might not be being screwed up at the club if it were not for the fact that the making of the criticism seems to be done with such relish.

As is often the case Brian you have hit the nail on the head. If this forum was a playground there would be a certain number sticking their tongues out and saying 'see,I told you so' with gleeful pride. We are where we are, and endless hand wringing is not going to change that. I am seeing the start of a long term rebuild and positivism which needs support and encouragement.

Unless someones going to take Nzog, which is as unlikely as us signing Messi, why haven't we just threw him his dirty money and told him to do one. I can't stand the bloke.

Contracts in the world of football end in June / July don't they?  If the rumours about his wages are to be believed, that means N'Zogbia has got the best part of a million quid still to milk from us before he departs.  No way he is going anywhere.

I'd just give him the mill and cancel the contract.

Sun are saying we are in talks with Vidic.

Not sure what to make of it. Injury prone, but class in his day, but will he cope with the league now? Certainly a leader.

Maybe he can convince Jonathan Greening to come with. Surely it's him or Lescott - could you play both ?

I wouldn't mind Vidic. We've always been too nice so I'd be happy with a cheating bastard in the side.

I'm not sure that we need is a 34 year old injury prone defender that hasn't played a game this season. We've already got a 30 year old version of that at the club.

He's more injury prone than Vlaar, he'd be in and out of the team every other week and on a massive wedge. Sounds like a bad idea.

Agreed. I'd say he's pretty much exactly the sort of player we don't need.

Since Vidic is directly personally responsible for the start of our decline from February 2010 to date he owes it to us to come in and single handedly save us now.

I don't want to go resting our defensive hopes on someone with an unpinned hand-grenade for a knee.

Might be worth a punt on Vidic before CNZ  leaves so that we can have the two worst dressed men on the planet with us at the same time.
