I think we want an Englishman backthere!! What about Mathew Upson or Ledley King? Both expensive but with great potential!

Upson is mistake prone, he makes far too many silly mistakes for my liking. Sometimes has poor concentration and makes poor challenges.

Not good enough.

I'd have Ledley King - and he would come cheap(ish) - he's nearing the end of his contract and is currently on about £8k a week - buttons compared to most England Internationals.

He's the only English defender i'd bother with at the min.

yeah i agree, i like king, he`s tall and quick and decent enough on the deck to play in midfield. no other defender really stands out in the prem who`d you`d guess might have a reasonable chance of leaving their current club. spurs would move mo :censored:

ains trying to keep him but he might fancy a change.

i would prefer king over upson,if upson is not good enough for arsene wenger he's not good enough for us

Feeney, are you sure Ledley King is only on 8k a week? For an international and a club captain, that's pathetic!

i'd like king but after that then upson is a no no. Riggott at boro i'd like to see as i think he is quite good.
Personally i think rafa is looking abroad. But onthe home front what about ben haim at bolton.

There was another post yesterday saying that there could be a deal doen with Spurs with Cisse going the other way. That would do for me, but we would definayely need to go ang buy a quick forward to replace him.

by **Lionheart** » Fri Dec 30, 2005 12:27 pm

King for Cisse...yeah, I could live with that.

It won't happen though!!!

Riggott might be proved a good move but Ben Haim I don't think he will ever be able to reach a higher level!

I think that would mean that hes looking for a new contract.

I don't care what nationality he is as long as he can communicate with the back four and Reina.

be honest with you yes i would want king,but a cheaper alternative is kings team mate Anthony Gardner.I'm convinced Gardner with the experience of playing with Jamie and Sammi would be a good buy.The lad is 6ft 4 good in the air ,on the ground and i've followed his progress since his days at port vale when he was a school boy.Anthony Gardner has played for the England u21 team and was very close last season to a full international cap.I reckon a bid of around 3million would aquire his services.

by **stoney** » Fri Dec 30, 2005 2:10 pm

I would prefer Kompany, hes very tall so would be a direct replacement for Hyypia and deal with the aerial bombardment somes teams give out in the premiership such as Bolton, Chelsea etc. He also has a lot of pace too. However, as welsh wizzard has said that we will be signing him, I think that rules him out now.

by **mighty mo** » Fri Dec 30, 2005 2:31 pm

it being reported in the mirror today that rafa has put danish CB daniel agger at the top of his transfer list,his club have decided to sell because he has 18 months left on his contract and would be available for a fee of around 5 million pounds
