Dont think I agree with the bit in bold. IMO, signing Aliadiere on a loan deal would be a very clever move considering our situation right now. a.) He wouldn't cost much. Don't think his wages are in the Ronaldo/Viduka-league. b.) He's eager to prove his ability to play PL-football. c.) We've got limited funds - hence the talk about loan deals. d.) It would allow us to focus our spending on our major weakness - the defence, especially LB. e.) We don't know if Owen will ever be the same as before the injury.

I hear Glenn was very impressed with Liverpool keeper Jerzy Dudek [/Anal O]

Duncan Sheik - Barely Breathing

What's his injury-record this season?

According to The Sunday Sun: Jeremie Aliadiere

Yes. If we're not buying anybody might as well pretend we are...Helps alleviate the impending depression. Anal Oliver in disguise?

Martins for SWP + Bridge...

Wiki:

I'm quite sure you can add Lucas Neill to that list. What about David Nugent? Apparently Sheff United had a £6m bid turned down yesterday. Overpriced?

Hmm, don't think LuaLua is ready for first team action... He's only 15 Think it will be something like this: Given Solano Taylor Huntington Edgar Dyer Parker Emre Milner Sibierski Martins Edit: Forgot about Milner

How poor is that Here's one more

That is about the strength of it. People comparing him to the Giraffe are seriously misguided. Aye, those two are nothing alike. For starters Crouch can't head, Carew can. Carews a targetman - a Jan Koller type of player.

Carew > Crouch Would be pefect alongside Martins/Owen imo.

Happy 2007!

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson:

Considering that he was played out of position I think he did alright. Had a solid game defensively, but didn’t offer much/anything going forward. Same with Huntington.

Could you send them to me too?

Agree with that, Crouch = Shola. Make it two fullbacks and a "big man" striker in January (eg. Viduka (short term) or Ashton (long term)) and we've got a deal
