Nouble's a beast. One of those rough diamonds. Can't see anyone loaning us a player if he's not in the 1st XI though. Matt Phillips would be a good signing. Certainly need some pace down the flanks. I find it somewhat depressing that at the end of the season a few of us were fairly confident we'd sign better replacements for Papa & Antonio -- Whereas now, in reality, i'd LOVE to have both of them back!

Good for taking Corners and left-footed free-kick's though... Seems an odd link to me. Perhaps an agent trying to force Carlisle's hand?

Can never have enough "players of the season" in one team

Shame. Coyle rates him quite highly.

Hasn't signed it yet....

Danns linked with the Foxes... http://www.thisisleicestershire.co.uk/news/Leicester-City-linked-moves-Neil-Danns-Japan-World-Cup-star-Yuki-Abe/article-2559708-detail/article.html Sure the signing of Guly rules us out though... Although Danns does like the No.8 shirt...

Hasn't stopped Charlton from enquiring about him again.... http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11719_6332057,00.html In other news... Huddersfield bid for Alan Lee (Huddersfield aren't p*ssing around are they?) http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11719_6331585,00.html

Great! -- Looking forward to seeing him play. We need a bit of guile to open teams up. Fingers-crossed he can do a job (and then some)

Awesome! Is he a winger? or an "AMC"? - Methinks he'll be getting the No.8 shirt.

Kris Temple on Solent yesterday, whilst talking about Pitman's move to Bristol City said he'd asked Pardew his opinion on Pitman, and Pards' response was "Lazy, but he'll get you a goal" (Just in-case anyone wanted to know)

Yup, scored his 100th prem goal yesterday.

It could be argued that it already has backfired...

And he's the captain too. Interesting what you said earlier about him having no competition. That's exactly how I felt about Puncheon yesterday. Last season he had Antonio & Papa breathing down his neck.

For what it's worth they said he "looks like a winger or a striker"

The chaps at half-time on solent were saying there's whispers in the press-room that a new player is watching the game today with his agent. Kris Temple & Merrington have both seen him but neither of them recognise him.

He was one of those 'marmite' players. I remember watching him pre-season last year against whoever we played at St Mary's (Was it Hearts?) and although he was obviously angling for a move and wanted to impress the watching scouts he was an absolute class apart when he came on.

That might be Jake Sinclair. I'm not sure.

Boo! http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11688_6325458,00.html

Yeah, cheers for that. What position does Ward-Prowse play? What kind of player is he?

Much better stuff from Pards there. Good to hear that we're after players who will really make us stronger. He's right about the bench too. Aside from arguably Connolly, we've got no-one who can change a game for us. Anyone else think he's talking about players like Vassell?

The beeb reckoned we signed him on a 2 year deal at the end of August in 2008 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/southampton/7588839.stm Weird. Would've thought we'd have 'done a Molyneux' with him if that was the case.

We were given the world (minus a winger, striker and central midfielder)

Yep, initial bid was 400k. Bournemouth told them what he was worth (1M) - Blackpool matched it.

London is where it's AT, apparently... Edgar Davids in talks to sign for Palace (random transfer!)
