You'd think Shrek would spend a bit more than that
"Woodgate cash flush" Newcastle United have put a bid in now. Is it really beyond the realms of possibility the lad may stick it out at Everton?
They are the 6th most succesful English club after all
£45?

"Manchester United chief executive David Gill said on Monday that making an immediate move for Rooney would be bad for business.
Gill said: "We could go out tomorrow and borrow the money to buy Wayne Rooney for £30-40m but it is bad business to end up with long-term debt for a short-term asset such as a player."

There are some interesting comments on the BB link from this BBc article.
e.g. A swap plus cash deal involving Dyer.
Gill lives in a world of Balance sheets
We wont spend more than £25 mil on a player with him as chief exec. I dont know whether thats good or bad
We need a young "engine room" style central midfielder, a young "creative" left winger and a "brick sh1thouse" centre half more than we need Shrek anyway
Samuel/Nesta
Nedved/Viera/Gerrard
Duff/Robben
would be nice
