Wanderers window shopping dispatch #2: Megson gets a Brazilian
Wednesday January 7th, 2009
The ins, outs and shaking it all abouts at Bolton Wanderers this January transfer window
Ins
Fans of any clubs managed by Gary Megson will know the ginger one is partial to hairy moments near the bottom, but it looks like he’s now decided to tidy up (Bolton’s uninspiring midfield, not his nether regions thank God) with a Brazilian.
Yes, in a move reminiscent of Rivaldo’s brief flirtation with a move to the Reebok five years ago, Megson has signed World Cup winner Denilson, albeit on a trial basis. Let’s hope Euxton is being treated to a few gems like this…

Perhaps a deal clincher for Denilson could be the prospect of playing alongside, er, Birmingham City’s Cameron Jerome.
A less sensational – but probably more pragmatic in the long term – addition to the Wanderers midfield, could be Wolves’ Michael Kightly.
Fans hoping for a replacement for Andy O’Brien may be disappointed should Calum Davenport arrive from West Ham, judging by this write up of his credentials.
Outs
After the ridiculous speculation about a move to Chelsea, a more realistic destination for Kevin Davies could be Hull City… a move made more likely given that Davies is one of the players rumoured to have upset Megson with his lack of effort recently.
Shaking it all abouts
They’ve been linked with both Ronaldos, Ronaldinho, Kaka, Buffon and now… an £8 million move for Kevin Nolan… yeah right!
Reports of a return to the Reebok for El-Hadji Diouf also appear to have been greatly exaggerated, because if Sunderland really do want to let him go – which they don’t according to this – then Blackburn would appear to be the frontrunners.
And it appears no amount of money will tempt West Brom to sell James Morrison. It appears their manager is a little upset with ours, although that by no means makes him unique.
