Would laugh my nuts off if Murray was sold at £3m - and if that were to be the case, he's a player we should be looking at.

What I can't understand is I'm sure you're not the only one who thinks Norwich are bonkers, but Murray has scored the same number of goals as Charlie Austin this season, yet everyone seems to be banging on about breaking the bank for Austin, who to be honest was overshadowed by Jay Rodriguez the past few seasons. Murray and Austin would strengthen our squad, but they are not worth the millions of pounds quoted imo.

I would be very unhappy with Murray, nowhere near good enough for the premiership

I'd follow this line to be honest. Murray has had a good season but I would be gutted if we were to spend £3 million on him.

I would like Murray and zaha stay because with them they are capable of taking points of our promotion rivals.

Problem is British players whether an international or not, are so overpriced compared to mostly superior and cheaper foreign imports.

Managers sometimes get their job saved or lost based on their window signings. Also newcomers can swing a title one way or the other. What a critical month for Rodgers, Redknapp, O'Neill and for different reasons Mancini, Fergie and Benitez.

We will be fine I think, particularly if some of our rivals best players move up a league in the next few weeks. :ayatollah:
