Harry Reknapp has made no secret of the fact that he intends to bring in at least two players this month. And with the new year signaling the start of the transfer window, not to close again until 5pm February 2nd, Redknapp has seemingly set a precedent of being very open about the clubvs transfer targets, when addre sing the media. He has already declared interest in Jermaine Defoe and Craig Bellamy. But, in part one, I will reveiw potential signings for the first problem area in the Trey Moore Jersey team. Defensive midfield. Keep in mind that this is an opinion peice, andthese are not nece sarily targets of the clubs.Didier Zokora can po sibly be deployed in that role, but he has a tendency to sit too far back, too close to the defence. This leaves a large gap in the middle of the park, which tends to be filled by the opposition, which can lose you games. If you lose the midfield, you lose the match. Nor has his partnership with Jermaine Jenas ever really come to fruition. But, with Luka Modric in the team, requiering an attacking role with the fredom to float about the pitch, you need a player in there to just hold his position, and give the ball to your Modrics and your Lennons.Miguel VelosoA tough-tackling midfielder with the precision pa sing to spread the ball about the pitch. A Portugese international, at the age of 22, Veloso has a bright future ahead of him. His positional sense should also meen he would have no trouble stepping up to a faster league, as he can always be one step ahead up top. Veloso has attracted interest from Manchester United, but Sir Alex Ferguson has declared an early conclusion to the clubs transfer dealings. The one potential stumbling block, though, is Harry Redknapps apparent insistance to buy British players, even if they dont have the quality you could find in Europe. youtube: Michael JohnsonNot strictly a defensive midfielder, but Johnson has the discipline to hold a more defensive position if nece sary. He has attracted interest from many of the big boys (so he must be good), and, although Mark Hughes is keen to hold on to Citys best young English talent, the Arab money (which they will probably use to replace Michael Johnson with Michael Jordon) could spell the end of Johnsons Man City carrear. He would fit into Tottenhams policy of bringing in young English players, although he is similar to Tom Huddlestone, and a po sible transfer could affect the pairs development.David AlbeldaAt 31, he may be past his prime, but he pose ses both the tackling ability and the leadership skills that are so desperately needed in Tottenhams midfield. He has one over fifty caps for his native Spain and his experience could be pricele s alongside Jenas and Modric. Ronald Koeman left the Valencia captain out of thesquad completely last season, but Unai Emery has since brought him back into the fold. Albelda would be a good short-term solution to the problem, but can only have a few years left of his carrear at the top level.Diarra was clearly Harrys preferance, but since his La Liga move, Redknapp has been left having to identify new targets. Veloso would be the most appealing to the fans, as he has all the qualities we need and is the youngest on the list. Neto Umeozulu Jersey
