    Would add so much to our midfield. I remember a couple of years ago the day the lad signed for Hoffenheim and there was uproar on the SMB that we never bid for him as the lad had all the quality to go on be a premier league regular. I must admit until then I had heard and seen very little of the lad but since then I have taken notice of him and since his move to Swansea he has been absolutely fantastic.

    Our current squad is decent enough but our central midfield is pretty one paced and lacks creativity, if Gardner goes which I think he will as I can see a club from the Midlands offering us what we paid for him then surely this lad has to be high up on our list of replacements as he would offer us so much and something different to what we have currently.

    As for Moses, I remember when he broke onto the scene at Palace and looked absolutely outstanding. When he left and signed for Wigan there was rumours we were going to bid for him and when that never came to fruition I think quite a few including me were disappointed. After a quiet year last season for Wigan the lad seems to have gone from strength to strength this season and like Sigurdsson he isn't even 23 yet so he has time on his side to get even better.

    I know I have banged on lately about looking at the oversea's market and that should certainly be looked at if the right players are not in our league but these two would offer so much creativity and a few goals to a side bar Sess and McClean now and again seriously lacks creativity.

    Maybe even Taiwo for left back if QPR go down which I have a feeling they will (as they would never sign him from Milan if they get relagated)

    Those three would be great for us

    Siguurdsen would be top of my wishlist of midfielders in the realistic bracket. Would like Moses but don't see him in an 11 with sessegnon. If wba want Gardner id quite happily swap them James Morrison, most under rated player in the prem, good in middle and out right.

    I've read the mags are in for sigurdsson, unfortunately I just don't see how we can compete with them to be honest. Cracking player mind. I really like moses as well, would take him in an instant. Looks like wigan are will be staying up though which will push his price up a bit unfortunately...

    I see Moses has turned down a new contract

    yep, looks like Moses wants to move on.

    these would be two outstanding signings. add a target man and we'd be fighting for a top 6-7 finish.

    seriously, think these two would do wonders. my top two hopeful targets (non-forward like).

    Sigurdsson would be a fantsatic signing for us, he would change the whole dynamic of our sluggish centre midfield.

    Sluggish certainly sums up our midfield, there is more important issues with regards to positions that we need to strengthen before central midfield becomes the top priority but something certainly needs to happen.

    we have a very small midfield and a very one paced one as well as a huge lack of creativity. I hope MoN addresses this sooner or later but hopefully with the former and in Sigurdsson

    Not at all true, it's just more BS from an evil agent who wants to make even more money for doing bugger all, as happens so often.
    The truth is, he's had an offer on the table all season but doesn't want to play below the PL, so hasn't signed it yet and unless we get an offer from a truly 'big' club, or a monster offer from somewhere else, he'll sign an extension within a few weeks.
    Latics keep reminding him that the grass isn't always greener (N'Zogbias move to Villa) and that few other clubs can guarantee him a starting spot and the love of the fans, even if there aren't that many of us.
