Let's hope he beats some sense into them.

If we were on the cusp of signing him, do you think he'd be starting the game? I wonder how close that deal is.
There was an article on BBC saying most deals start well before the window opens, even some in the Feb after the winter window closes. O'Neil said he was called two weeks ago by Moyes to say a bid was coming in.
This is why I get the impression we are disorganised.
The RB issue has been going on for years. Moyes said he'd tried to sign players in the past (think it was mainly regarding strikers) , but surely we could find a RB better than Patterson and O'Brien ready to sign at the start of the window.
Rant over.

I did think the same, if we are close or agreed anything surely he wouldn't be in the team. I still think we are interested in someone else and he's the back up, still think we want Rico from City and are just waiting to see if he's made the grade with them or the Spurs chap Spence.
