Lescott for petrov+dunne+cash and i'm more than happy. This was printed in one of the awful free london papers although the main story that day was lilly allen's orange tan so read into it what you will.

I've noticed a lot of negativity on this forum regarding Phil Neville. Ok he is not the most skillful central midfielder in the world but I actually think he has be quite good for us. I am far more worried about Hibbert at the moment. I would much prefer Neville at right back but still don't understand why so many on this forum think he is no good. I suspect it is because he used to play for united

Negativity seems to be a theme on this forum as there is constant criticism of Moyes as well.

When we get the Cahill and Gravesen back I think we have a really strong side. If we had signed manny then things would have been even more promising so I do expect another big bid for a creative midfield player in the January window. Cheer up and lets look forward to another impressive season.

My XI

Don't know if it will ever happen and you can never be sure how players will adapt to the prem. However I used to watch a lot of argie football and have probably seen this guy in 50 games. He is great and I would love to see him in a blue shirt. He arrives late like cahill but is technically superior and much more creative. I have only seen him play for argentina in recent years but his seasons stats for porto last year, posted earlier, don't look too bad do they? I'd love this signing.
