Give him a pay as you play contract with bonuses for goals, etc. The guy has had a torrid time at Liverpool, but was pure class at Leeds and at this level would be awesome. A move to someone like us would put him in the shop window really, so we could write in a £3-4 million buy out clause in contract and hope he comes good. Worth a punt. Although he'll probably end up at wolves!      Report

For those of you who remember the reliable person has been spot on before.    It would be a good start to the summer if true, the wide left player is more than likely Hoolahan, god only knows who the others are, perhaps the rumours about the Turners putting some money in are true and we do actually have some real money for a change.    Report

I'm actually looking forward to the summer rumour mill, and we'll get the usual Norwich/Wolves player chases in the press, so I, for one, appreciate his input!    Report

In fact, do pay as you play deals exist at all? Or is this just a hangover from the "Get Sutton" era?    Report

I'm sure I have heard of them being awarded to certain players. They are rare though, and I suspect that Kewell wouldn't be on one, as some other mug out there will think he's quailty and will throw all sorts of money at him. But hopefully Roeder knows better than to sign over the hill shirkers on a huge wedge.     Report

09/05/2008, 9:25 PM Jim Smith Joined on 18/08/2003 Posts 762 Re: IN THE CAN Kewell has been linked with Hull so its not totally out of the question but I agree he is likely to be out of our price range wages wise. Apparently during the full version of the Roeder interview today (which i'm told is on canariesworld) he said the player he is confident of bringing in to replace Hucks is 6 or 7 years younger than Hucks. An entirely different rumour I have heard from a mate who works in the midlands media is we are after David Bell from Luton. He was on loan at leicester last season apparently.      Report

He would fit in with Roeder's description of Hux replacement. Personally, I would bet on the signings being Taylor, Ramage, Commons & Patterson - wouldn't be a bad way to start the summer off!    Report
