id have junior hoilett definately. cahill will obviously get some interest, think he will be off in jan to arsenal.

id actually have ledly king as a back up on a pay as you play. top defender.

Heskey is still only 33? Thought he was about 37.

i think blackburn be due compensation with him but either way i would definitly have a look at him, loads of potential second choice keepers there. Id take Kalou, anelka and drog no probs.

Fucl me is that Bolton's 1st team squad or Bosman situation?? They could be right in the doo doo

Gordon as back up keeper.

Not a bad shout but made of glass, would rather sorenson(although we should of got him this season), Jussi or even Gomes(at a push kuzcack but rather not) from spurs.

Wonder if Arsenal will try and save money by waiting until the summer for Cahill.

Dorgba, Anelka etc, they've gotta go in Jan. Someone has to snap them up before the summer.

lol @ Keiron Dyer.

Drogba is running his contract down then off to UAE or some such place in the summer.

Same with Anelka i reckon. Unless his brother/agent can squeeze one last move out for him.

Or that Russian team that's buying all the past-it superstars.

I think Anelka has some strong contacts in the Middle East- I've got a feeling he converted to Islam after spending time out there, or spends a lot of time out there since converting. That's where he's heading, imho.

There are only 3 players of the 13 on Bolton's list that are the right side of 30. Cahill is obviously the "jewel in the crown" a few clubs will be interested in him. Phil Gartside is delaying negotiations until he knows which division they are in. http://www.premierleague.com/page/Headl ... 26,00.html
