He is physically fit and was on Saturday.

Never in this world…..sorry but mentally all there or not, he would have played on Saturday if fit.

Disappointed to see the asking price drop to £16m if true.

Big question is whether the people now handling this for Rovers hve the necessary knowledge, experience and licence.

Interesting that Nicko has just said no bids have been received. Also noway spuds would pay that amount 16m for any defender.

Long may it continue.

They paid £8m (2007) then £10m (2010) for Kaboul, so if it involved a player such as Bassong (who cost spuds £8m) then they just might

Irrespective of what they have paid in the past, it's what they can pay now, it appears we are not interested in what they have offered upto now, which according to Nicko is nothing to date so they have a long way to go.

Just a heads up

No Samba, Diouf or Nelsen at awards, think they are the only ones not here (from what I've seen). Even Grella is in the building without crutches.

Didn't even realise it was the awards event. Have a good 'un matey.

Djourou off with a hamstring injury for Arsenal, their need for a CB grows but I imagine Cahill will be the target

Nelsens little lad had broke his arm, Samba's missus wasn't well - no mention of Diouf.

Also forgot to add Givet wasn't there due to his bug at weekend.

Not having much luck recently our Samba, is he...?

Btw, did Kean tell you that?

Not sure what that post is for...are they the reasons Nelsen and Samba didn't play?

I think it's connected to the post just above, reasons why they weren't at the awards

Rather tedious links here but Guillem Balague tweeting Chelsea have agreed a 28m euro deal to bring in Juan Manuel Mata from Valencia.

Surely that would out to bed their interest in Modric and not provide Spurs with the funds to come in for Samba.

Edit:

Just read he also mentioned Modric is still wanted (rendering this post rather pointless.)

Physioroom reporting that both Samba and Nelsen are both due back today but rated as "slightly doubtful" (whatever that means) It'll be interesting to see if our captain steps up.

No show today and I reckon he's off. Cue Kean coming out sayimg he's failed a late fitness test...

Not sure spuds need to sell to buy, they made about £40m from CL last season and not really spent much yet. They have also sold O'Hara for £5m and Keane for £3m. But Levy likes to balance the books and wages are their problem, mind they have offloaded a fair bit already in wages, the 2 above and add Woodgate who was released probably adds up to about £140k a week.

Deals they are working on is Adeybayor is loan deal that will cost them a £2m fee plus half of his wages believed to be (£85k). Diarra Transfer fee £9m (seems cheap for player of his qualities) and wages of around £80k.

Add to that wages for Friedel £30k meaning their expenditure so far is net £3m on transfers and Loan fees and probably £55k a week on wages.

They will sell Palacios, Hutton, Bentley and Crouch or Pavlyuchenko probably bring in a further £30m in transfer fees and saving about £180k - £200k in wages.

So any thoughts of them not having money is well wide of the mark, they will be very active in the next 12 days, I expect in addition to the 2 players above they will add 2 or 3 others, certainly a CB, probably a RW and maybe another striker.

Or he may fail a late fitness test...
