Swapping him for an old Greek bivouac. It's an ex-Zorba-tent deal.

Imagine having a midfield with Jedinak, McCarthy and Landsbury in it. Fight, desire and a few goals. After the backing for RDM I hope Bruce gets backed for 2-3 of his top targets. Brady with those 2 and a cheap defender to cover right back would make us massively stronger.

And - as in the old tale of the Trojan horse -  of gifts bearing Greeks.

If you're relying on jedinak you may want to think again.... No pace at all, passing ain't great, can only play 2 out of 3 games ( short of fitness?)....everyone js saying our midfield should be Jedinak + 2........just play another defender.....if we're organising our midfield around him were f**ed

Break the bank and get Barry or Delph back

Lansbury and McCarthy with Jenkinson on loan would be a cracking bit of business, and would improve us tenfold.
Think McCarthy will end up at Celtic though.

Barry has just signed a new contract at Everton. Why would he change his mind within a month to drop down to the Championship?

You should have to donate to the site 50 pence per player everytime you mention re-signing Ashley Young, Milner, Barry or Marlon Harewood.

Players of those quality aren't coming back.

Could be wrong there.  I am sure I saw Marlon Harewood directing cars into the Bevington Rd car park.  Two hit the gateposts so it must have been him.
