Check this fella out, I just bought him on FM and he looked good so I googled him and found this video. Looks like the type of player we need, defensive midfielder, good tackler, good passer and he's got a bit of Brazilian magic!

Right, I meant to stick this in original post to try and explain my jumbled mind as to why I picked these players:
Christian Poulsen - haven't seen much of him but is proven quality in Uefa Cup competition and Spanish league. Only thing is he's probably off to Barca according to this thread and also even if he wasn't Sevilla probably would be a lil' reluctant to sell to us... :wink:
David Albelda - not really heard much of him to be honest mainly due to my lack of knowledge in regards to Spanish league. He'd probably be a short-term buy as in 30's I believe? (someone correct me if wrong). But he would probably be a freebie so that would be a bonus plus provide good experience! :up:
Lassana Diarra - my choice out of the ones I put in the poll. Young, athletic, has a good pass on him, French international and proven in the premiership (currently playing very well for Pompey) but could we get him so soon after joining them and how much would his price tag be? The only disadvantage is that he's a little short (5'6 I believe). Also would he see us as a bigger team or another 'stepping stone'. Would be great to see him alongside Jenas in our midfield though! :hump:
Michael Carrick - I wouldn't say no to him coming back! The only negative thing I can remember is that when playing for us against rougher teams such as Bolton he'd sometimes go missing. He does have the bonus of having struck up a good midfield partnership with Jenas and might still prove to be the best option out of the lot though, who knows... Would Man U let him go (although if he gets fed up with sharing with Hargreaves would they have a choice?). A fantastic passer and might be the best choice out of the lot in terms of providing a better quality of service to Berba and Keano (don't let him take corners though as I don't know if it's just me, but I swear they weren't that good!).
Steve Sidwell - never linked to us to my knowledge but may be available at a reasonable price and provides bads of energy, has a good tackle on him and also while playing regularly for Reading in the prem bags a good amount of goals for a defensive midfield player. Nice to see 2 people voted for him 2! :up:
Llama - strong, has heart, full of running - what more could you want really!
