Yeah, Mansour (unless I'm missing something) must have told him that they would have to cut down on transfers to make sure that they were fine for the FFP.
Yeah Mansour, eh, they're pretty much the same person right?
I said get in a centre back that can also cover left back. So yes that would be an additional centre back.
And why not send rose on loan? He has a pathetic amount of first team experience compared to Caulker and Naughton. The games would probably do him the world of good. All he currently gets at the club is the carling cup games against lower opponents and the occasional game where bae is out. A loan would be a good chance for him to actually show people what he was able to do, i'm sure if he's good enough there would be 2-3 Premiership teams wanting to have him for next season.

Eden Hazard talks up Tottenham move but encourages Barcelona or Real bid - Eden Hazard has encouraged Real Madrid and Barcelona to act quickly if they want to stop him making a shock switch to Tottenham.
The Lille forward is one of the most sought after players in Europe, but reports from France on Monday night claimed Spurs had agreed a deal with the Belgian star to join the club in July. Hazard previously eluded that he will play in the Premier League next season, and although many suspected Arsenal or Chelsea would be his likely destination, the 21-year-old fuelled speculation that White Hart Lane could be his new home – unless either Barca or Madrid make their move.
When asked about his next club, he said: ‘Maybe it will be Tottenham. It is a great English club. I said that I would go to England and there is very good players (at Spurs). ‘I have not yet signed. This is going to happen soon.
‘Spain is perhaps more my style of game but (if I move there) it must be to either Barcelona or Real Madrid.’
Hazard made his Lille debut as a 16-year-old and has gone on to become one of the French club's most important players, who they value at around ?ú35million. Last season he became the youngest player to win the Ligue 1 player of the year award after helping Lille complete a domestic double.
As other posters have said, lets wait until he puts pen to paper first. This will not have been the first time that a player has "bigged us up", whilst trying to broker a deal for another club?

They're just the same quotes minus the reason that he doesn't think Barca and Real are the best move for him at this time, nothing to see here move along....

it has made supposed bigger teams looks rather stupid, and made us look like smooth talkin badasses. not a shock to us, but to metro readers, hardly a sophisticated, serious bunch of bleary eyed commuters, it will no doubt have raised an early train-boner
If we have caught Barca and Real napping, that will send signals

I don't think 4 or 5 top clubs were competeing for Uvini, whose transfer fee will ultimately be 1/10 that of Eden Hazard's. On top of that, Uvini is a loan with option to buy, whereas Hazard doesn't need to make any decisions until near the end of the season.

Why not though? We can't have him as a loanee forever, he seems too good for that. I think we'd better start playing him sooner rather than later if we want to keep him.
I'll admit to not following his career too much, but by the posters on here he sounds like a real good prospect. Why not let him play alongside King, learn from him and maybe become our leader in defence for years to come? If I remember correctly, which happens more and more seldom, King himself benefitted greatly from the short time he played alongside Naybet. Perhaps he wouldn't be the player he is (or could have been, health aside) if he didn't learn from that kind of experience. Dawson and Kaboul have shown (at least to me) that they are much better being directed than direct themselves (by that I mean organization and assign zones of marking, unless we man mark which would be nigh on impossible with King of 2012), but both are very solid defenders in a working setup. Perhaps Caulker could show signs of being that organizer, I'd rather give him a try first (albeit not against Arsenal or Man Utd) than pay over the odds for a proven but expensive central defender.
And I also believe it's easier to spot a good defender than say, a striker. There are so many coincidences, trickeries, perfect hits and variables who have to come off for a striker to gain good stats, and then again stats alone say very little about a player. A defender on the other hand, show more what they're made of by taking positions, calmness, strength in the air and other parameters who aren't as prone to coincidence or the opposition they're facing. You won't lose your ability to lead a line or cover an area overnight, unlike say your ability to hit a decent free kick which apparently can vanish in an instant. This is my take on it at least.
I understand the caution, but to put it another way, would we play Swansea's best defender and hottest prospect if we bought him in the summer?

Got this from SC. Apparently his Dad has come out on Belgian TV saying that he has been following us this year, Hazard that is, and that we do seem like an attractive prospect. He wants to move to a club with CL and have a lot of gametime. He also stated that we are in negotiations to sign him; whether that means with Lille or with Hazard that is unclear.
