Sylvain Distin

I think Distin could be the best option, cover for a year or two, time enough to let Rodwell get some practice at the back or maybe nring through another player, whether or not Duffy will make it is another question, he's got the physique etc but he wasn't very good against Rochdale. Early Days

Good post.
 

Solid , experienced , no attitude that I can see. Would be excellant cover for Jags, and Yobo's replacement when in Africa....Need another one tho.Senderos would be my choice. I don't think Taylor's heart wil be in it here....
 
I really believe the Distin deal is done awaiting a medical. Think about Pompeys financial position and us spending 5-6 million on a 31 year old. Wasn't it just a few years ago we broke our record getting Andrew Johnson for that kind of money. Pompey is biting our hand off to get this deal done I assure you.

I think we need his experience and is a decent player but surely we will look for a younger CB also. Perhaps the Norwegian lad being mentioned could be the one with little fan fair.
 
sylvin distan our no1 target

ther saying distan`s our number one target on sky sports news.

i dont really want him and for 6mil i think its a bloody rip off. it`d be a good signing for 2 or 3mil.(n)
 

If we do, absolutely superb bit of business.

Not so worried about the defence now, we should get at least 2/3 years out of him*

A very decent, left footed replacement for Lescott.

*/until City double his wages.
 
I think he's actually preferable to most of the other cbs we've been linked with to be fair.

Taylor and Senderos are perhaps too young (and expensive), Hangelaand is probably a Paul Warhurst (one season wonder) and Huth is simply a turd.

I wouldn't mind Sylvain at all (for no more than £4 - £5 million)
 

distin will be ok for few years but i suppose it depends how much moyes has to spend on 1 cb , shawcross & hangeland rated at 12 mill by their clubs means distin is a good option but would like taylor also

Your right Taylor & Hangelaand would be to pricey at this present time. Maybe next year when we do the one major they could be courted. Don't want Huth at all.
 
Can't really understand the logic of £5m for Distin over £5 - £6m for senderos.

The lads 31 and not getting any better. At least Senderos is quality now, and has the opportunity to improve with experience and form a real partnership with Jags.
 
5m for distin?? In 3 years time we have to spend at least another 5m for a new defender. Why don't we get someone better with 8m NOW!
