Hardly the big name signing but Flamini would be a fairly sensible decision. Should easily integrate into the side, already been training with them, and he covers positions we are in need of filling. With Sagna needing to fill in at CB over the next little while he can also provide extra FB cover, should Jenkinson go down. Sign him til the end of the season I say.
Spurs will be worse than last season once Bale departs. None of their signings are proven in England, and most of them seem over-priced, particularly Soldado. We're obviously aiming a bit higher than that (and failing thus far!).
I do wonder why we weren't interested in Capoue given all the rumours linking him with us over the past 1-2 years, have to assume there must be a reason Arsene wasn't bidding. Perhaps we're just holding out for Kondogbia instead - he did start the last French game ahead of Capoue.
Man we need to sign a CB asap. Arseblog reckons we should rest Kosc for Fener next week so he's back ok for the Spurs game - but that means playing the Sack and Sagna as CBs for 2 more games in the next week, disaster waiting to happen. We can't even throw in Miquel as he's gone on loan - there's simply no one else in our squad to play CB.
