I like Mee and his out and out defender skills. Puts his body on the line etc and plays well for a lot of the game, but he has made plenty of mistakes this season that have led to goals. It is fine playing for a small club like ourselves but if he played for say Man U he would get criticism left rig...

A full month for the transfer window?
Is there any need at all for this to be a full month long? A week at the end of January would be plenty I reckon.
