Get duo from Blackpool Alex Baptiste and Ince...............

Decent player and out of contract in the summer so should be able to get for a decent price. Oyston may not want to sell to us/Appleton though.

They dont need the money any more after all the dosh the got for Appleton so they are playing hard ball with Ince as Liverpool cannot even prize him away what chance have Rovers got. January is hold to ransom window.

Freddy Adu is coming in? Is this just a rumour? If it's true, how did we pull that off.

Adu was to be the next Pele according to reports when he was younger (he is only 23 now I think)....still playing in the NFL and looking to move to Europe.

Played for Benfica and Villareal. Was supposed to join Everton a year ago but deal failed to go through. If he joins though, it'd be a step down for him, can't see it happening. He's used to European football, not championship football.

An NFL player?

MLS. Actually it would not surprise me in the slightest if Venky's went out and bought an NFL player.

Freddy Adu would be an awful signing. He's already done the rounds in Europe and failed to impress anywhere. Not sure who it was who referred to him as the next Pele but my money would be on either his agent or Freddy himself. If Vukcevic, Formica and Rosado aren't deemed good enough by the management then I'd be very shocked if they think Adu is.
