I can't believe some of the players we do not look at or are not linked with. Especially given Lambert's past. Dortmund have a great youngster, Jonas Hofman, who I knew was going to be loaned out this season. Scored a cracking goal against Bayern last season, and he's out on loan, but we never made a move. Right now I reckon we should be taking a look at Jack Cork. He was brilliant last season, and though he can't get in the Southampton side at the minute they are THIRD, he'd be a great contribution for us. Likewise, how is it we've never made a move for or taken a look at Marko Marin. He's supposedly on his way to Anderlecht. it may not have worked out at Chelsea, but a German international, we could surely have given him a try.

Why can QPR go try sign players like lass diarra and Alex pato, we should take a gamble on a player like that

Not sure I'd want us to do that. Diarra was a great player, but seems a bit past it at this point. I've not paid attention to how Pato's done since he moved back to Brazil, but he had fallen off quite a bit at Milan before he went back. Not sure we want to be taking too many gambles ON players. taking a gamble going in for players who might be tough to bring in is another matter.

must admit as soon as i heard the pato rumour i thought how the hell are we not abe to do tht, think only reason he left ac was a knee injury i picked up and lost abit of pace but still worth a loan gamble maybe

Can't do the deal because we have Lerner for an owner. He will not sanction money to be spent.
We have a manager that has his hands tied behind his back by an owner who doesn't give a .. About AVFC.
However I was delighted to read that Delph named Lerner as one of the reasons he signed the contract. Wonder when he saw him!
