Well you got your wish
In our last poll of who you wanted Blues to sign, Roger Johnson got the most votes and subsequently turned up at St Andrews a few days later. Unfortunately the previous favourite Jordi Gomez signed for Wigan instead.
1% of people voted for Zat Knight. Probably Villa fans.
Our new poll concerns David Sullivan’s comments today that we are looking for three more players. Which positions should we be looking to fill?
ANOTHER Transfer Update
Well it’s all happening tody.
Ecuadorian defender Giovanny Espinoza has been confirmed as our latest signing. The International defender has joined from Barcelona Sporting Club on a two-year deal.
Update on Transfers
We have agreed a fee with Cardiff City for Roger Johnson. The player has been given permission to talk to us.

Today’s Transfer Rumours
After securing Hart, there are still a number of rumours knocking about.
Cardiff’s Roger Johnson is still being strongly linked with us. Apparently he can be ours for £5 million, depending on payment type. Johnson is a very good defender – but I’m not sure he is worth paying that much for.
We are also still being linked with Rangers Barry Ferguson, however apparently we haven’t made an offer at this time. It is suggested that £1 million could secure Ferguson’s services. For me, that would be good value for money.
We are also being linked with Toulouse defender Mauro Cetto.
A new one that has popped up today, is Man Utd’s Fabio da Silva. We do need a left back with Murphy being injured and there is a rumour that we might be interested in signing the Utd youngster on loan.
Apparently Geovanny Espinoza is in for a medical, and assuming he passes – will be a Blues player in the next day or so.
So a complete revamp of the defence. I don’t think any Blues fan would be upset about that despite their performances last season. In the Premier League, we would have struggled IMO.
I would like to see us signing an attacking midfielder or 2 aswell. We DEFINITELY need some pace in the middle / out wide. Fahey will do well, but we need at least 1 more.
Anyway, we will keep you up to date with the latest news.

Hart Joins Blues
Joe Hart has joined the Blues for a season long loan. I think it’s mildly amusing that our nearest and dearest have helped this happen by kindly selling Taylor to Man City.
Anyway, this is another good signing, Hart is without doubt, a quality player.
Well done Alex and the board.
