Heard nasty rumours bout Ryan Shawcross been linked to us, not that desperate are we, more red cards than fellani, others better out there

I like him. Not sure I'd go out my way to sign him like but I think he's a good centre half.

Gives away too many fouls, clumsy, positional sense is poor, slow and can't play, no tar

Can't really see him fitting into Bobbies system

Good solid defender, but not so hot with ball at his feet.

We have Duffy anyway.Similar players.

Shawcross has cleaned his game up a lot. heard that both Chelsea and arsenal are closing in on him

Arsenal think mertesacker is good, they can have shawcross then

As someone else said, he's a solid defender, who can't play football, but we've got Duffy if we want that.

Ed, what ya reckon to these two jacks we keep getting mentioned with-colback and rodwell? Not even sure we could afford the latter back but didn't rate before the move tbh-all potential. Colback could be interesting back up but surely we should be looking at 1st team quality before back up?

{Ed025's Note - both very average for me CP, colback on a free seems the better option, but I would not expect either to first team regulars mate..

Colbacks a tenacious and reliable kid who still has his best years ahead of him, rodwell, well, hopefully he will follow our dan to bournemouth

I'd take Colback on a free in a heart beat I think he would fit in fantastically here and I'll admit I'd be a bit excited if he came. Rodwell? No thanks never fit and not what we're looking for we can't afford players who won't be able to pull their weight

As far as jack rodwell is concerned. he is 23. ask yourself what ross barkley will be like in 3 years time. I guess world class.the rodwell ship has sailed.

Best bit of business we done that. Thinking about it we've shafted City and United for a right few quid haven't we. Rodwell, Lescott and Felliani over 50 million 2 been released and one been found out to not be as good as he thought he would (smirks)

Colback would be a great acquisition . looks good enough on the ball to play centre mid and has the pace and tenacity for fullback. Perhaps a squad player to start with . but Jagielka was signed as a midfielder/right back and look what's happened . regular England centre half and captain.
