Hargreaves!! Agree with you 100% on that one, but lets look outside the top 4.

Diarra @ Pompey
Sidwell @ Villa
Vogel @ Blackburn
Didnt think Boateng was too bad, Also surprised by Middlesborough letting Rochemback go, I always thought he was good whenever I`ve seen him play.
Papa Bouba Diop, Touted his name around last season aswell.
Huddleston or Zakora @ Spurs
Michael Brown @ Wigan

My point is that the Def Mid position is becoming less about a midfield clogger but more of a good positional player from where attacks are started........

Manny Fernandes anyone????
 

Ye but money is an object, so count every one out thats been mention'd. An think of a championship player instead.

We are shopping at Aldi again!!
 
He was due to sign for panathanikos in Greece for £1m.

Moyes has tabled a bid trumping that apparently. So it's up in the air.

Gilberto would be a good replacement for Carsley. He is not a hard tackler like Carsley but he is a DM. He just does the job differently. He marks attackers off the ball and applys pressure rather than go in with feet flying. He can also cover attacking wing backs and even slot in as CB for set pieces when JL/JY/PJ are up in the other box.

I'll agree not exactly what I was hoping for, but still has a LOT to offer and may even be a better fit in the squad than Carsley. We would be more flexible with Gilberto in that role as opposed to a hard tackler who can't cover (Carsley).

Opta stats (for seasons he actually played more than 25 games) are decent. He sounds like a decent bloke too.

Get him. Cheap. Masses of experience. Does what it says on the tin. Proven in the EPL.
Don't know what you are all moaning about.
 

Hello Mike good to see you pal. DO you not think that Gilberto would help develop our young players who arent quite ready for the first team?!

A world cup winner who has won the Premiership and played in the champions league?

Mick I see were your coming from here. I just have my reservations on him when he played for Wenger. If we could get him on the cheap then I'm all for it. he could help blood some of our youngsters your right.
