bit harsh on Turner

surely he's more of a Premier League player than the hopelessly-overrated Olsson?

Agree about the overrating of the squad - some people have fallen guilty of the Premier League hype (which they moaned about when we weren't in it) whereby just having played in the Premier League somehow makes you a 'Premier league' standard player and too good for the Championship.

It's noticeable that of the players playing yesterday there hasn't been much premier League interest in any of them. The only exceptions are Redmond, and that's largely because of his potential rather than what he actually does at the moment, and West Ham's brief alleged interest in Olsson.
