Intresting quote from lambert in the pinkun interview.

When talking about wanting to keep Barnett past the Jan 4th deadline.

---------------------------------------------------
Lambert has spoken to Albion about Barnett, but knows he will need City?s financial backing and Albion?s approval to get his man.

?You are in a Catch 22 - you either don?t try it and he goes back and you accept mediocrity, which I don?t want to accept,? said Lambert."

---------------------------------------------------

Lambert normally chooses his words carefully but this is obviously a risky play.
He is willing to slate some of his current squad players (Askou, Nelson ect ect ect)
to try and get the board to make it happen.

If we slip down to mid table by Jan it will make signing players more difficult and any financial gamble in the window less attractive.

Get into the top 6 and we might have a real go at getting in some players to take us to the next level.
