Alex McLeish's mobile phone service providers are rubbing their hands in anticipation of a bumper day of lengthy, and occasionally long-distance, calls for Birmingham City. Blues have (deep breath): made an offer to Standard Liege striker Milan Jovanovic, held talks with former Barcelona striker Maxi Lopez, been told they can have Aiden McGeady from Celtic if they offer £10m, prepared a new offer for Liverpool's Ryan Babel and finalised a £3.5m deal for Aston Villa's Craig Gardner.

He'd have bought 78 strikers, and 2 utility players.

£10M could be enough to land McGeady or Babel but its would the players want to come.

Seems McLeish is trying to get Jovanovic again but as he prefers a bigger club so may be asking for a considerable wage deal, more than the £30-40K touted when we was first linked before rejecting us.

Gardener does look very likely and i would not be suprised if he is signed this week.

Indeed thats kinda what i said....

McGeady may be hard to tempt....

Babel maybe interested because of a wage increase and more games in a more suitible role.

I feel Pavy would be a deal that could be pulled off, but reasons its queit could be that McLeish is close to landing someone else instead.

Maybe that could well be Babel, which means McLeish is not going to sign 2 Strikers at £10M a pop. More likely 1 £8-10M Striker and a £6-8M winger.
