Ed, seen some rumours linking us to de vrij. Some even saying we have agreed personal terms and are now discussing with the club. Seems like this has jumped out of nowhere so bit sceltical. Would love you to say there is some truth there though?

{Ed002's Note - Stefan de Vrij (CB) Inter would be willing to let SdV leave at the right price, but they could easily price him out of a move - they need to raise funds and the player has not been willing to discuss a new contract. There is no obvious interest although there has been a discussion with Atletico Madrid who would be interested at the right price, but it is dependent on a player leaving. Inter have earmarked a replacement. Mino has been offering him around to clubs who he thinks are looking for a CB and have €40M to spend.}

Thanks Ed, as ever. he's a good player so would obviously love him. Seen a few articles today saying how we are desperate to sign a cb and that its actually our weak position. Not sure I follow that thinking with Godfrey keane mina and holgate plus kids underneath. I know you have mentioned mina may be up for sale so could understand the need to replace him, just don't see how we are 'desperate'.

{Ed002's Note - He is indeed a good player.}

Should get Zouma instead.
