Sorry all but i'm also getting info that james collins from west ham. fee of 1.5 million.
back up defender. any whispers ed?

I'd take him for £1.5m no nonesense defender to bring on last 15 mins when we're defending a lead

He might bring him on with 15 to go but more likely to play on the wing and have mcgeady at centre back lol.

West Ham fans don't seen to like him, when you are behind James Tomkins you know you're bad!. Think Funes Mori is all we need at Centre Back. No need for another one.

Agree with you there swan if Mori ever officially signs! & we also have Browning and Galloway at CB

about the extent of our ambition. No surprises today or tomorrow when obviously we need strenghtening. Season before last we played with a striker fed by Delboy and Pienaar (Mirallas) result being he ran riot in opposition defences. Last season we paid 28 million for him and promptly abandoned playing with wide men result he played with his back to goal. This season we have brought back Delboy and the couple of times he came on, he terrified defences and Lukaku played like the man of two seasons ago. It is obvious to everyone but those it should be obvious to.

To be fair, I've seen Collins put in some brilliant displays against us. Would take him as a back up, although that points towards Browning becoming the next Duffy: Does well enough whenever he's given his ridiculously rare chance, but never allowed to breakthrough before being sold very cheaply.

Good point AB about Browning and Duffy.
