As a player or as a signing?

For us I'd sign Beckham and put him in the middle, but I'm considering the exposure we'd get in signing him.

We'd get the exposure alright but do you want to sell chicken or get Premier League points?

A bit harsh imo. Pace was never an aspect of Beckham's game so advancing years shouldn't be too much of an issue. He's still a class act and his phenomenal marketability would be a huge bonus. I could see him doing a job for a middling Premier League outfit playing in front of the back four, bringing the ball out and picking passes.

On second thoughts, probably not for us! :lol:

:(

Michael Carrick is my guess

I reckon he'd be the thick end of £20 mill as well as being highly reluctant to join us.

Hows Cassano coming along is he any nearer to joining Rovers??? lol.

Decision due Monday midday,50-50 whether it go's Sampdoria's way.

All seems a little silly with the window about to open anyway.

Still have to fancy Milan to land him in my opinion,especially if Ronny does up sticks.Inter,Juve & Fiorentina cannot be ruled out though.Personally i don't see the boys in manchester getting involved.

Rafa is now a dead man walking.I think it's safe to say the grim reaper is right behind him & about to swing.

Is Mr X MKII Eden Hazard?

Not unless your owners are going to part with around £18 million. :lol:

Xherdan Shaqiri

Half of Europe seems to be after him.Has anyone seen him play?,i certainly haven't

Wonder if we are could be interest in Cluj striker Lacina Traore?

Half of Europe after him too.

Midfield target - Giovani dos Santos?

Keeps getting offered around Italy.Tell's you he could be one his way come January.

Are we finally signing Alexis Sanches from Udinese? :P

No :lol:

You don't think DB is better than anything we currently have, bizarre.

He can pass a football.

To answer you and DGS------------yes I think Beckham is better than anything we have------ HYPOTHETICALLY.

Age, injuries and his off-field ventures mean we'd see him very little.

Its his crosses and free-kicks that would impact but Pedersen does pretty well in that regard as does Olssen when he's fit.

Waste of money better spent elsewhere. If we are looking for a wide player I'd go for pace anyway.

David Beckham can play 30 and 40 yard balls accurately, he has a great mentality and attitude, would have a presence on the park and would lift the club and Team to another level!!

47er. Could you not see Beckham being effective in the Tugay role though?

That position would nullify his raking crosses but I could see him being effective if he was fit and motivated and not representing the UN at a Third World Sports Conference. He is the biggest name in football but not on the pitch.

Is it because the target is another of Spurs players, Kranjcar maybe, and its a loan deal? And the reason then that Bentley is a no go is that Bentley is also a loan and you cant loan more than one player from a Premier League club?

That's clever thinking and I notice Nicko hasn't answered you! By that same reckoning it could be Dos Santos.

Article in the LET:- Big Sam is saying that he's NOT WORRIED BY KENTARO!!! Also said that He has already started drawing up my January transfer list!

He says that I dont see that they will become involved in the transfer policy situation. I think they may be advising but, in terms of real targets, me and John will be looking after that situation.

when the article is on the LET website I will post a link to the article!

I think the Chelsea situation has to be watched. Ancelotti wants to spend in January - and Roman has said yes.

Better keep an eye on VIP box at Bolton tomorrow methinks...

No, been tried there for England on several occasions and the game just passes him by. Not a good tackler or header of the ball , can't beat a man to save his life. Seems to find it difficult to find the same time and space in midfield as he did out wide. One paced, reluctant to use his left foot- apart from that he's world beater. Let's sign him- Not !

Yes, I would think Jones could be a target there too!!
