The Swiss James Milner...
Wouldn't say no to this, bags of experience and could definitely do a job for us.
If it's a choice between Barnetta or Konoplayankia I'd go Barnetta every day of the week!

It always seems to be a Liverpool-Spurs target. Why we're always paired to Liverpool considering the amount of money they send compared to us is odd.

Liverpool have a lot of players in their squad of 15-25M bracet while we have 5-15M (Lamela Soldado exception)

Apparently signed a 3 year contract with Schaalke in 2012 so becomes a free agent on 30 June 2015. Back up plan for MS ?

Has played mostly winger in his time in the Bundesliga, so I doubt it.

More importantly, given the fact the announcement from Schalke came over a month ago that his contract was not going to be renewed and not even the Bundesliga clubs have snapped rather tells you just how desirable this guy is. Decent player, but I think this link is agent-contrived as he's just not getting much interest.

He is a decent player who has a good all around game but doesn't excel at anything, isn't physically imposing and actually pretty slow, and doesn't look to me as if he plays with any passion.
Kind of like a Yossi Benayoun maybe...either way, not good enough for our goals.
