Already been mentioned.

Did Sam spot him at Blackburn?

He can spot a player can't he.

Didn't Moyes try to buy him or was it Martinez?

Remember the last thread with a player who's name started with an N'?

Yeah Moyes tried to get him before he went to stoke

Thought I remembered something like that

Just what we need another midfielder!

Would be over the moon with him but surely he's just after a new deal at Seville. We would definitely have to let someone go. I'd love Arda Turan as well. Getting on but Sam could definitely get a tune out of him I reckon. Just have to check his attitude. He was at the heart of things when the Turkish national team imploded a few years back.

It's not a priority, but he's a real quality player. if he was available for a good price it would be a shame to miss out on the opportunity just because we've already got a few sub-standard players in the same position.

What type of midfielder is he? Would it allow us to ship out pointless players like McCarthy and Besic?

Yes

DM from what I've seen, he's head and shoulders above anything we've got. Id see him more as a replacement for Schneiderlin

Defensive midfielder. Great in the air, he's 6ft 5. Good control, and usually gets around 90% pass accuracy per season. He's not as mobile as the likes of Besic or Macarthy, bit as you said, they're pointless otherwise.

[Mayor Farnum]

Didn't Sam have a Turkish midfielder at Blackburn who was getting on a bit? Really skillful.
