Didn't want to break the Emerton news last night for fear of despair [then I see posts like above].

It explains why there was a search for another face - Zoro at right back or Poggy up front - to replace his versatility.

So Super Diouf is now the new right winger? Hmm.

Spurs are trying to do Keane as we speak which makes Rafa's 'I don't think so' on the question look rather daft - how can Liverpool sell a forward without a replacement? Crazy.

Bolton having a beast. The mystery midfield target was Pedro Mendes at Rangers...and he doesn't want to know them.

Not on topic, but why do folks feel the need to quote posts that are directly above theirs?

Because sometimes the post you want to reply to gets separated from your reply by quite a way. You think you've replied quickly but ten people have got there before you and then what you write makes no sense at all.

Many of the match reports that I have read described him as "not interested" during the Boro game.

If we sign a "decent" striker and make a tidy profit I will be very happy.

I thought he offered far more than Benni on Saturday. If we sell Roque we need someone with Premiership experience. To sign an untried foreign player at this stage of the season would be madness. Just look how Grella is struggling to come to terms with the pace of the English game. Look how Carlos has flopped in English football. I really don't see an experienced English based striker who is in our price range. For me we have to keep Roque if we want to stay in the Premiership.

Shame about brett, just illustrates how problematic our midfield is. Although i've been impressed with Andrews attitude and work rate, we're relying on a lower league midfielder as one of our lynchpins in the spine of the team which is at best not ideal.

We must bring in two new faces in midfield whatever happens elsewhere - One for Emo and one just to make up the numbers.

Edit: I'd go in for Stephen Hunt for five million (his release clause). Good age, lots of football to come from him and a solid player.

I hope Allardyce doesn't rush into one of his infamous polyfiller signings to replace Emerton.

We don't need some washed up "experienced" player to plug a gap. If we can't get someone in of quality, just recall Alan Judge or Paul Gallagher or simply persevere with those we have.

Galagher or Judge are not good enough Rover6. Maybe in another 6 months experience, Judge might be closer to 'making' it.

If City are going to make a bid for RSC today - we should probably demand Onuha & Sturridge as part of the deal. Also according to BBC sport he has been spotted at The Lowry hotel in Manchester.

Sorry for the confusion, i am multitasking and the Superbowl is getting very crucial

Who were you rooting for Doddsy?

Back on topic: I've the feeling today is going to be either uneventful or full of good news, but not bad. Don't know why I feel that way, but it probably explains my still being able to support this club

without the assistance of medications.
