Hope to God we've agreed something behind the scenes with Bolton for Cahill in Jan or next Summer. After all - we loaned them young Jack and he was brilliant for the Trotters.
If Cahill has a good Autumn / Winter though he will be much in demand and unless we make a massive improvement, we won't be first on anyone's list!

Totally agree with you Step as my only satisfaction was Cahill not going there as we should have signed him.
However think we lost our chance now, we had the chance to do the deal and didn't so we haven't shown him we really wanted him. Come January he will have no incentive to join a club outside top 4 who won't offer the package others will.
We needed him, he is comfortable on the ground and good in the air, an ideal foil for TV or PM. We could use him central with PM and TV on left, or as part of a back 3 (remember that) which would also get the best out of Santos who appears better going forward than defensively.
As it is we are one injury away from our current third rate backups with no going back so think we can forget about Cahill barring a miracle.

Regardless if Mertesacker fits in really well, all it takes is an injury to him or Vermaelen and we are fucked, we needed to sign another CB in the window just gone, not wait until Januarydigger wrote:Cahill won't be free, but he can talk to other clubs and sign a pre-contract - although I'm sure that only applies to foreign clubs. Best thing we could do is nip in early with a £5m bid and just wrap it up while the other managers are still balls deep in turkey.
We may not need another CB by Jan, depending on how Mertesacker fits in...
