Handily enough Cork could really use about €800,000 around now.Quote:

I remember Keith Andrews captaining Wolves as a 19-20 year old and Don Givens refused to pick him for the Irish U21 team because years earlier he had decllined an offer to join Arsenal whom Givens was Youth Team coach at the time. Injuries set this lad back years, would be delighted to see him get a big move.Quote:

I dont see what these english clubs see in cisse.He was a failure when he was last in england.If an irish player cannot at least contest a first team place with cisse then maybe they are not good enough.Quote:

Cisse has 40 odd caps for France. I don't think our 3rd or 4th choice striker needs to be better than him.
If your figures are correct they are better than I expected.Quote:

Diouf, Cisse and Healy added to the squad in the last few days how many strikers do they need and where will that leave Stokes and Murphy? At least Murphy can play on the left. Looks like Stokes should be loaned out to the Championship or the SPL again.Quote:

Diouf was signed as an attacking right side player like he played at Bolton.Quote:

doyle to villa??
probably - he's saying he expects something to happen before the close of the transfer window. Would be very unlike Doyle to say that unless something was almost certain to happen.Quote:

Stokes really needs to go on loan to a championship to kick start his career again, it really hasnt happened for him at Sunderland.
Villa would be a decent move for Doyle, im not sure he would start every game but he would certainly be on a par with Carew and maybe Agbonlahor too. there has been alot of talk of this transfer on this site but its the first Ive seen anything concrete from either party.
Maybe Doyle could be heading for Manure? Old red nose is having problems finding a striker that he knows is capable of scoring at that level. Time is runing out for the Berba deal, Saha is injured again, other potential targets like Silva and Huntelaar look like dead deals. Young lads like Fraizer Campbell and Danny Welbeck are too unexperienced. A 7 or 8 million quid gamble on Doyle might not be a bad idea, especailly since he's come out and said that both he and Reading are ready for him to move.Quote:
