Shows how accurate journalists are. It says the Mbia has already had talks at Rangers, when it is clear to everybody that he hasn't yet left Marseilles.

Would be a great signing but if you look at the squad and an attacking midfielder is probably the thing our squad needs least. We have attacking midfielders in abundance and they ain't gonna do us any good if we keep defending like we have done in the first few games of the season. Somebody at the club needs to get a grip, stop panic spending and get us a decent holding midfielder and a couple of centre halfs!

That's what the management is attempting to do by trying to sign Carvalho, Dawson and M'bia.
