Sell Heitinga, invest up front/wide

[sheeds]

Athletico Madrid, Spartak Moscow, Ajax, PSG, Fenerbache

Sadly mate blokes who earn their money in this business have been trying to move him on for near enough a year (if not longer) knowing that they'll earn if they can do it but with the exception of a Dutch agent who went off message disregarding finances who nearly bundled him off to fenerbache I don't think anyone has got close to getting anyone to do the deal so it's easier said than done.

People are trying their best but it's not an easy deal to do as I understand it.

Go back for Odjidja-Ofoe and Vossen of Genk for the spare striker role (most top sides have 4 we have 2 max) or Gameiro of PSG. Both may be loans with permanent sign on in the summer.
As for CB position, Lescott loan and/or Forren in

If we're selling Heitinga then we really need to be buying a new centre back.

I'd like to see your lad play more Brian. Shame we were knocked out of the cup so early as i think that would have been the kind of time he'd get a look in.

hello brennan91,his time will come he just needs to be ready at all times and i am loving it right now.....he has been training with the first team the day before matches and doing all the drills so he is ready and mr moyes knows he is ready....

 

[micknick]

[Goat]

to be fair, we'd still need another CB imo. Duffy's obviously the long term solution and will be the one to replace distin on a permanant basis within the next couple of years. we should always have 4cb's at the club at any one time though

 

[djpauly]

Duffy may be ok, but we cant go into the second half of the season with just Jags + Distin. Suicidal

Duffy will be good. I'm sure of it but you're right.

We need 4 CBS.

If Heitinga goes, and I'm not sure he will, then we need a replacement.

 

[djpauly]

Personally think were stuck with Heitinga due to his wage demands.

This. Heitinga was our player of the season last year. Why sell him only to have to buy a replacement for Distin next year or the year after. Doesn't make any sense, either footballing or business.

dont think distin will be retiring anytime soon he is still fast and a great defender nowadays if you look after yourself you can play top level for years Cannavaro played top level till he was 29 Maldini 41, hes better than Heitinga and we could loan lescott
