    Brendan will be fully aware of what's going on. That's a ridiculous post mate.

    Don't think there's any CM ready to make that step up. Hendry has ability but more of a creative type. Thompson is more of a holding player but not ready for a leap of that magnitude. Most of our talent seems to be down the flanks, Ralston, Miller, Nesbitt. Think he'll look to use Henderson & Ajer more, no choice but to really.

    An injury in any area of the field and we are in bother Griffiths gets injured for any length of time and we are relying on a 19 year old ,toure or Eric then we are back to efe and boyota Brown or biton to McGregor and Armstrong. * we could wing it ,but why have millions in the bank

    Flamini would tick every box for me. Bags of experience at the top level and a rodgers type of player.

    You're forgetting Ajer and O'Connell there, not to mention Ciftci, who might do a turn yet domestically.

    There are a few names on that list I'd love to see here.

    Flamini and Raul Meireles are the two stand outs. Both in their 30s, but we'd be getting them for nothing anyway and they'd bring a wealth of experience.

    I've often thought this too. No idea why we don't appear to have made a move, unless it's just a wages thing.

    Sulley Muntari would probably still do a job for us right enough aswell.

    The question is, do our board even look at free agents once the window has closed?

    I imagine Lawwell struggles to find the time when he's at Parkhead to do anything other than count money.
