Albert Rio, Jim-Bob Gudjohnsen and Riggott Mortis who play for Colchester reserves? We should be able to get that lot and have change out of Disco's fee from Blackburn.
I hope I haven't been lead down tha garden path by Roy not being specific enough.

Riggott? A promising youngster instead of a more seasoned defender?

Interesting choice of players. These would be the "safe" options of course, as all 3 speak English and also would have no acclimatization or "bedding-in" problems.
Now, what would be your daring options Roy?

Rio, Mexes and David Odonkor

Dunno, I see Riggott as a John Terry like defender and I think he would work well with Rio
Though Terry and Ferdinand would be a superb pair as well, I'd be absolutely delighted with that
One ball-playing, the other one aggressive, both tall and good in the air and both English so no communication problems.
Give me the 2 of them and a young, fast striker and we're settled.
Gaz and Micky at full-backs are not brilliant but they are not awful and that would be good enough.

Very good player I'm afraid.
He's only going to do well if you change the way you play though..
He's best suited to a 3-man strike force where he is the free player who can go to the wings and take on players with his tricks and pace..He's not really a target man...more of a wing striker..
I think he'll be a success eventually but it'll take him a bit of time because as we know the defenders in England are a lot more aggressive, I was astonished with the way players marked Diouf in the WC, they gave him so much time on the ball, it was just daft, he'll never get that in England, as Veron has sadly found out this season..
It's a good signing for you but again, it all depends on the way you use him cause if he is used wrongly then he can be quite ineffective..
