With the European Championships around the corner, this is the last chance for many players not guaranteed first team football to gain the move they think could make the difference between playing in the tournament and not.

To start with there is the slave at Old Trafford Polish keeper Tomasz Kuszczak who cannot be first choice for the international team given the form of Arsenal’s Wojciech Szczesny. I have previously stated that QPR need a Premier League standard keeper so maybe there is a deal to be done there.

Also at United is the Republic of Ireland midfielder Darron Gibson. Suddenly he seems to have fallen out of favour and was close to a move away during the summer. Whether Fergie has seen something in his attitude nobody knows but there a host of clubs that will be trying some kind of deal whether it be permanent or only on loan. Sunderland and Steve Bruce could be an option.

Away from Old Trafford down in North London and another club set to sell more than sell are Tottenham Hotspurs. Jermaine Defoe and Roman Pavlyuchenko have both been linked with moves away from White Hart Lane with QPR and Everton possible destinations.

Bolton’s Gary Cahill is expected to complete a £7m move away from the Reebok with Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham monitoring the situation.

Man City’s Adam Johnson is expected to make some kind of move during January which is surprising because you wonder who they would allow him to join. Which clubs would be beneficial to him. As it stands he isn’t going to be going to Poland and Ukraine in June.

Robbie Keane may be a consideration for one of the smaller Premier League teams as the MLS season has finished and as captain of Ireland he will want to keep his form and fitness levels up. Liverpool might not be a bad piece of business for Johnson but West Brom, Norwich or even Swansea is more likely for Keane.

Everton’s Jack Rodwell impressed on his international debut but hasn’t done enough to merit inclusion over anyone else in the pecking order. However should Manchester United come calling it will be hard for but club and player to resist. This might be a window to soon for Rodwell but that could also deaden his Euro 2012 chances.

    Liverpool among the teams looking at Europa places? After only 12 games? I prefer to be more optimistic than that, starting with Manchester City on Sunday. Siempre es posible 🙂

    we are level on points with chelsea and above arsenal..how are they looking at champions league and we are being included with stoke and everton?? who writes this crap??

    Europa league for Liverpool!? Are you having a laugh, unbeaten at home so far, same points as Arsenal and Chelsea having beaten both and drawn with Utd so far this season! Champions League minimum is what the reds are aiming for!!

    Between the belief that Everton an Wolves are aiming for 7th an possible Europe (Villa an Newcastle a lot more likely right now), the missing of the fact that only 5th is guaranteed Europa as the other two positions can go to the cup winners, the statement that Arsenal who are below Liverpool are more likely for champions league and the ‘fact’ Johnson will be leaving city without taking account of his new deal I don’t think the writer of this story has a clue what he is talking about to be honest.
