DiDont that Perin just SNAP his knee in half

Both of them in the last year

Still only 24/25 and still a top talent. Maybe Everton should finally give in to my demands and sign ruffier for now and Perin can come back in 12 months time and show us all his sexy reflexes :cheers:

...it's his 2nd serious knee injury which would be a concern for a keeper.

Okay then £19.9m for his torso and head. Arms are also a must have in a goalkeeper

McCarthy deserves better than Newcastle.

I think Sunderland with Moyes would actually suit him.

Maybe we should dispense with squad numbers and have symbols instead, Clev's could be a crab. On the terminally dull business of transfers, I predict Jags gone this month, I think/hope he will give McCarthy until the summer to prove himself, Del will be gone. No incomings.

Why join a team thats going down instead of one thats coming back up?

If we can get another decent CB i wouldn't be surprised to see Jags join Moyes for one last contract.

Because one of them is loathsome & the other isn't.

Seen on 442 here in Oz that we are interested in Kone from Sunderland again and we have ongoing talks at AFCON with him, think this is just due to the fact that Jags will be joining Moist up in Sunderland

think we may have passed on kone. We're looking at spending £40m north on VVD, would be a bit weird to then go for a player half his value and half his rating.

I mean for Sunderland and Moyes, he would be the type of player who may help them this season. He is definitely a PL player, he turned Liverpool down when he was 16 and Benitez was the manager, so benitez has always rated him.

...and we're forgetting the fact that KONE is HUGELY overrated. I reckon we were lucky swerving him first time.

Crack on and get the VIRGIL I say.

*won't happen like but, y'know...hope an' that.

Suppose it depends how big his back garden will be up there.

After yesterday, I would think City will get out their golden cheque book and start throwing millions around to any half decent CB like VVD.
It was oh so sweet but maybe disembowelling them wasn't too clever if we really want Virgil - a nice streaky 1-0 would have been the ticket.
