I know that Onuoha isn't quite up to the level of quality that we now expect as the norm for a City player, but £2.5m, if correct, seems to be a miserably paltry fee and at that price, it almost makes you think it would be worth hanging onto him until the summer as an insurance against future injuries to any defenders in the run-in.

In any event, I always thought that the January window tended to inflate prices, as clubs who were desperate for new players were more willing to stump up the cash. If Cahill, with 12-18 months left on his contract is worth £7m, as has been bandied around, surely Onuoha ought to fetch somewhere in excess of £5m ??

Anyway, talking of sides/managers prepared to stump up the cash, 'King Kenny' seems to be amenable to paying over the odds for mediocrity and, with Suarez now being absent for 8 games, I wonder if we could dangle Roque Santa Cruz under his nose - who knows, we might even get all our money back that we've spent on him if the Anfield Legend took the bait.......OK, OK perhaps that's stretching the imagination too far.........

But if we sell Onouha and Bridge, players that aren't on the Premier League list that our club sent to the FA in august, doesn't mean that the players that Bob will bring (if he brings more than one) will fill the places of those above as players outside the Premier League list?

I think it's been dismissed as bullshit in the press conference but you never know. 2.5 seems very low though, sounds like a Kia story to me as I think McCarthy was on TS this morning.
