Here come the rumours

Like Christmas, the transfer window is still some way off, but it's not too early for rumours to start, with the source often being agents trying to create interest in a player and bid up the price.

Charlton have been linked with Swansea City striker Lee Trundle. Southampton and Sheffield Wednesday have also been named as interested, and perhaps he could make the switch to the Championship. But getting 15 goals at his level cannot be reproduced against Premiership defences.

Personally, I'd rather sign Cyril the Swan, the madcap Swansea mascot. Even if he does pick up the occasional red card, he would be a bit more lively than our current somewhat bland mascots.

Today we are being linked with Saha and Ashton. I would have thought that Saha would be out of our reach, wages wise, but would we want a perrenially injured striker, however good he is when he turns up. ashton would be a good bet, Norwich not reaching the levels they aspire to and Ashton having proved to be worth the money spent last season in the Prem., but will we be able o fight off the rest of the mid tablers, now that the attractions of a Champions League place have dimmed to obscurity, as for Trundle.. he is 29 and still playing the lower leagues, say's something about his potential at this level, surely he can't be that late a starter
