Have seen a strong rumour that there is interest in ravel Morrison, but I really can't see Lerner spending the money, not when PL is happy with hoolahan, just wish they'd smell the coffee and realize canaries won't sell to us

Morrison is available for £8m and I firmly believe if Lambert can handle him, would be a superb signing and a great bargain!

This is pure speculation, he's just signed for West Ham and leptospirosis face it they need as much help as us.
Agree5

{Ed001's Note - that has to be the best spell check ever! Now I just need to find a way to fit leptospirosis into conversation.....}
Well he only has 18 months left on his contract, he won't sign a new 1 as he wants to move on

Haha ed, that blew my mind as well

Ed I've got your conversation point. I drank water containing animal p-ss now I've got leptospirosis
Agree4

There was a rumour that if WH reject an £8m bid then they'd have to offer Morrison a new 60k a week contract so I can see him moving but would we pay him 40k a week which I think he would expect and would PL want a guy who's well known to be childish an arrogant?
I don't think so.

Just read all the latest news for today, seems we have bowed out of the race for Defour and Lescotts wages have shut down any deal for him, Lambert has said he has not approached kiyotake and refused to comment on Hoolahan earlier (probably because of the whole history with Norwich ect). Joey Barton and Kyle Naughtons name being thrown around a lot, can't really see Naughton as we have just signs Bertrand and Barton isn't really the type of midfielder we need, hopefully we sort an attacking midfielder and a centre back before the end of the window! Hope to see Benteke back on form tomorrow! UTV!

Barton is exactly the type of midfielder we need! He has the fight and the eagerness and he would come with experience!

Barton from what I've seen (I don't watch too much championship football) is a sitting midfielder, who occasionally goes forward, I wonder who that's like. DELPH! We need an attacking midfielder who can score the occasional goal and pick a good pass, a number 10 so to speak, similar to Coutinho, De Bruyne, Mata, lallana, Barkley ect ect! (Wasn't saying they were our targets btw just examples)

In bartons last season at Newcastle he had more successful forward passes than any other midfielder in the Premiership. Some of his antics are bad but when we beat Newcastle 3 seasons ago he was by far the best player on the pitch. he is an attacking player

He played at Newcasastle 3 seasons ago, players change with age, he is not a "number 10" so to speak.
