I could see him throwing him on as an option ahead of what we already have.

Few rumours on twitter that a few clubs have made loan bids including Leicester... any truth?

Could live with that... but Moyes doesn't always see Velios/Gueye/Baxter as match winners - he'll usually stick with what he knows e.g. Anichebe.

Open to offers? I could live with this as long as Felli signs a 5yr contract this summer!

He needs to stay fit for a full season for us to be able to do that!

This does not excite me at all but if and that's a big if (as you can see!) Moyes does want him then I can kind of see why... It'll be for against the teams we couldn't break down last season especially at home... wolves, west ham, wigan, newcastle, bolton, reading etc. teams we should have beaten but they just absorbed our pressure. There comes a time where all else has failed, maybe 75min +, where you've just got to pump the ball forward at a big man and hope to win the knock downs. Bothroyd would be better than what we have for this scenario. So where I'm not showing any excitement over this potential signing (which I believe is just paper talk anyway) I can see why Moyes would want him if we actually do!

It was a mistake and has since been removed - it was meant to be about Gary Cahill!

24 + 20 = 42?

It looks like Citeh are close to signing Clichy so this will fade away now!

Any swap deal would need to involve milner and/or a.johnson for it to be a good deal for us - the players that will be offered will be 2 from SWP/Bellamy/Bridge/Boyata/M.Johnson plus £10m or 1 from Santa Cruz/Jo/Onhuora plus £10m - I would be v.pissed off if it's either of the later scenario's but to be honest if we got a deal say Milner/Johnson plus Bellamy/Boyata/money then I would be tempted.

He's not the best but he's still managed to give our back 4 the run around a few times in recent years - £12m for Dann and £4m for Jerome sounds about right. Stoke have no debt, a very wealthy chairman (who is married to an Evertonian), relatively low wage bill at the moment and most importantly a profitable stadium!!! It's depressing!

Hopefully enough for the rumoured N'Zogbia down payment!

Saha tweeted this earlier today... One more week and we back training. Hopefully new players in nobody out. Trophy in injury out. More fans In Crisis Out. Sun In rain Out. I think we all dream of this too!!!

Correct plus Bill doesn't have a lot more than £10m anyway!!! We don't have any money as we are missing out on possibly the biggest market money wise - corporate!!!

He was joking because of the way it's written. "I have also heard this morning that there have been some advanced talks with Everton over a deal for Anichebe!" This was obviously a Stoke fan saying this but Louis has joked about it being an Evertonian saying it!

To Villa?

He looks quality - future England lb ahead of Gibbs I reckon (obviously when Cole/Baines are getting too old.)

I'm bored so here's my football manager style ins/outs... I'd do it on comp but not sure about real life!!! Sell Baines to RS for Merieles + £10m Use £5m to buy Bertrand from Chelsea as replacement Sell Fellaini to Chelski in straight swap for Zhirkov and Sturridge Sell Yak and Yobo for combined £6m to Turkish side Sign N'Zogbia for £10m Spend whatever's left on youth back-up e.g. Jennings Any more money e.g. very good bids for Johnny/Bily/Arteta/Rodwell would be considered FM line-up... .............Howard............ Coleman..Jags..Distin..Bertrand .............Nev............... .......Merieles..Arteta........ N'Zogbia................Zhirkov ...........Sturridge........... As ridiculous as original post and I haven't been drinking (have just been on run and feel a little dizzy though!!!)

To Arse? from Dan Roan, Correspondent for BBC Sports News.

Correct you are!

I knew Jonathon Greening at the time (he came to the gym I coached footie at) and I asked him to try to swap shirts with Big Dunc at the end of the game for me... he didn't!!!

Have you heard the rumour that dave is actually David Moyes?

Here's the blueprint!!!
