No and No.
I assume its their agents starting all this. I doubt Tony would bring in two 35 year olds after refusing to buy Wayne bridge in the summer. |  |

The test of whether we have really learned anything will come quite soon............... look for us to avoid a QPR with Scott Parker, Rio Ferdinand and Frank Lampard........... if we do, then we've learned something. |  |

Frank, yes. Still quality and better than what we have our could afford to buy. Rio, no. We have enough age at the bank already. |  |

Why not! 3 year deals for both with no relegation clause for either, what could possibly go wrong?
Oh hang on a minute  |  | | |

Fat Lumplard would be a liability in a struggling team.
He needs otehrs to create chances for him, and we don't create hardly any chances.
he wouldnt offer anything defensively either, christ, people used to moan at Adel for not tracking back. |  |

This is effectively is the test of Tony Fernandez' and Phillip Beards resolve.
The questions revolve around FFP, fixing our wage structure, investing for the future, clearing out the dark cupboards of the squad, and starting to be fair to the supporters.
The difficulties are that until the euphoria dies down Harry Redknapp has proved the case for experience over pace, youth, and potential. I dispute that in the context of The Premiership!
If Frank Lampard is an answer to a need ( a modern number 10 ) then surely Louis Grabban is the answer TF and PB should be providing.
If Rio Ferdinand is an answer ( I don't see it, no pace, now drops deep ) then surely Feltham Born Steven Caulker is the player we should be giving Harry Redknapp.
If Joe Cole is the answer to anything we should ask another question.
If alternatively we want somebody to keep possession, set the tempo, protect the central defence, man mark, be available then George Thorne is the man for the job.
Don't know the cost but these are all Championship players who can be intergrated with the existing squad without disassembling all the good work thats taken place in the last 10 weeks ...and before. | | | |

I reckon our central partnership will be Rio and Dawson.I'd go for that. |  |

Pick up superannuated celebrity players from top four clubs? What could possibly go wrong? |  |

As opposed to young and inexperienced who actually might cost the same?
Ryan Nelsen was an unmitigated flop wasn't he.
It's a question of balance and judicious use of a squad system. | |

But Ryan Nelsen wasn't a celeb player. Certainly not part of the Golden Shower. In fact it's often been the unsung heroes (like Ryan Nelsen) that have delivered for us. | |

The only way you could make that partnership slower would be to cut their bloody legs off. |  | | |

I can see it now!
Ferdinand, Lescott, Kaboul, Lampard, Parker & Eto’o all in.

no, we can't pay silly wages again...either raid the championship for good players, derby have a few or scout around...many players will be out of contract and free. | | | |

No thanks we have enough experience at the club,its energy and youthful exuberance we lack.
It would be rather amusing seeing Fw@nk working under the captaincy of Joey Barton though,especially at breakfast time. |  | | |
