Thought this must be the case...it would be a tad over the top for signing Diarra:grin:
But, according to your criteria:shrug:
I think it was Rule No.11 that said get a player with personal issues cheap or free...surely you should be chief advocate of a move for JB.
read above mate - he was kidding, POTL didnt say that.

Quite excited at the prospect of Diarra coming in, might be because we havent signed anyone else though.
I think he will seriously put pressure on Sandro/Modric for a CM position and i wouldn't like to be the man charged with deciding who to play. I do fancy the 4231 idea in bigger games though.
I suppose Akqa/Peanut saying Monday/Tuesday will give an insight into whose info is more accurate here?
Then again i see ben and peanut both saying opposite things and both have good track records.

Slow? We've had ITK that we've actually signed someone! That's positively Usain Bolt speed in comparison to most days this summer!
I'm waiting on the BBC or OS before I take anything for granted :snooty:
Plus its another midfielder......

Don't think so
If Diarra does come then happy days as we be much more solid if they pair him with sandro/hudd in the middle and play modders on the left with bale at left back....def the way to go in big games away from home...wouldnt be so keen at home tho.....any news on a striker??? i liked the look of llorente yesterday- much quicker feet than crouch if we looking to upgrade the crouch/vdv partnership....and he only 26 so thats good- thought he was older than that

Personally think BAE is better than Bale at LB. Keep Bale where teams fear him.
Start with Modders and Sandro in the middle then bring Diarra on for VDV to protect our two goal lead

And I would be chief advocate for selling Modric at the right price.
However, I understand the limitation of movement caused by squad rules. So Barton > Diarra according to those rules. But better than forcing additional moves? I don't think so. And I did mention in my last sentence that I am not sure Harry can help keep him on track. That's the most significant part of "fix" crazy. The would worry me.

Diarra was wanted by Mourinho and fans at Madrid, and the only reason he's leaving is because he wants to play every week as a starter. Im sure he's had assurances from Arry and i think we will play with Diarra AND Sandro when both fit and Luka, vdv and bale in front of them. Lennon would be the one to come on in the second half in case we were losing..
