But he 31 and would cost 7.5 mill. He can play defensive midfield though...

Aged Player looking for a payout?

Not for me Nick. Very Good player, but too old and too expensive for us.

You have been known to be wrong before Calrky

I had real doubts about the wisdom of KK paying £1.5 million for Pedro at 31 yrs of age - boy was I wrong on that one! I'd take him as Hughes and O'Brien could learn a lot from him as well as the fact he's better than any of our defenders that we have now

Touche Brutus! Moral - never admit to anything! ;-{)

I know what you mean Kegsy, and I do like Southgate as a player and a potentially positive influence in the dressing room. However, as a defender I don't think he's ideally what we're looking for - a real physical presence - and at £7.5mm he's far too expensive for us right now. At £3-4mm I'd probably take a different view.

I'm sure that Killer would be available on the cheap.....

Aren't Villa in the Twobob already?

Aren't Villa in the 2nd round of the two bob cup, as opposed to us starting in the third round as we are a top 50 European club.

Nope...Villa are in the same round as us.....

Why would we want Southgate when we have an even greater already at the club, albeit a Spaniard with a girl's name?
