    Just checked, a tscum bid was being rumoured in various this morning, according to the BBC Gossip column, or is that more skulldugery prior to a meeting between the two? <cynic!>
    Have absolutely no idea, wouldn't like to see him going there if im honest.

    "Sorry, boss, I should have kept my legs together," said Lawrence. "No, Tommy, your mother should have kept her legs together!," replied Shankly.

        He can play either CM role brilliantly. Granted he's not really what we need to improve our first XI, I just thought I would add his name into the hat considering Owen Hargreaves had been mentioned before of him

        Most of the players that would be really improve us have been mentioned, Richards, SWP, Lennon etc

        If pressed to pick one I'd take SWP. Beats players for fun and scores goals. He's wasted at Chelsea. Shame there are no gifted English left-mids out there because that's probably what we could do with most IMO.

          He would have played today wouldn't he, and I'm sure he'd rather fight for a place in a CL team than be playing week in - week out in a relegation dog fight with the UEFA cup thrown in for good measure.

          Would he and Momo not be great for away PL matches?

          We would then have 3 top class d/m to rotate between 2 places each match, 120 places up for grabs between 3 players over the season, that's an average of 40 matches per season each player, which would prob be about right imo.

            Yeah I think he'd be great for us, and give us real strength in depth at CM if Stevie was to play RM in the long term but I suppose only Rafa knows what the deal is there. May be a return to the centre if/when we sort RM.

              Scott Parker's a good player. I'd certainly rather have him than Zenden to back up Sissoko
              I could not dig, I dared not rob:
              Therefore I lied to please the mob.
              Now all my lies are proved untrue
              And I must face the men I slew.
              What tale shall serve me here among
              Mine angry and defrauded young?

                seriously. If we did get lennon or swp, how do you think it would affect our line up?

                Could you see Benitez dropping Alonso or Momo or would stevie end up suffering more.

                Personally I do believe as immense as momo can be, he would have to warm the bench and rotate with Alonso. He's young, he'll cope just fine.

                  There'd be nothing to stop us playing a 4-3-3 at times to accomodate all of them

                    I'm a fan of Milner myself, saw him play for the Barcodes at Anfield this year and had a very good first half. Played well for them recently, definitely has talent and can play on either flank.

                      Im a fan mayself.
                      Think O'Neill would have worked wonders with him had he of stayed there.
                      Think he is predominantly a left sided player though, for that reason i'd leave him for the moment.

                        Dunno what his best position is but I've seen him at right back and centre back for City - looks comfortable in both.

                        Look awesome!

                          John Terry. 3 at the back like against Newcastle last season.

                              Actually I think SP is a great call. I will update my opinion to either him or Richards, who looked great yesterday on MOTD in an otherwise less than impressive City performance.

                                Personally, i'd choose between Joey Barton and Kevin Nolan.

                                Andy Johnson (p/x with Bellamy please!!!!)
