I think you'd get Enrique reasonable as he doesn't have long to go on his contract. I'd go for Cahill, but that's likely to be close to £20 mil and in reality I think he'll get better options than us. As sad as that is to say.

But then that's going to be the case with any player of real bona fide quality....attracting them. Like it or not we are rapidly becoming also rans. I really wonder if Suarez would have been as keen to come if he had known Torres would go. There's no doubt when you have a squad that includes Reina, Mascherano, Gerrard, Alonso and Torres, even Agger if he'd stay fit, you'll attract players. But three of those are gone and it won't shock me if Pepe leaves in the summer, so that doesn't help. I can real off names like Sanchez, Pastore, Aguero, Hazzard, Neymar etc etc, but in our present state none of those will likely even give us a second thought.

Hopefully Comolli is really good at his job and snaps up some young lesser knowns that become the real deal, but I can't say the rumoured Sylvain Marveaux excites me much.>

No surprise there, Marveaux is over 19yrs old!
