For £9m I definately wouldn't be interested in Jagielka. However I think some people are being a bit too quick to slag him off. He is a very versatile player, he can play anywhere in defence or midfield. He can actually play in goal too, that wasn't a one off against Arsenal, Neil Warnock usually doesn't name a sub keeper as he's happy to use Jagielka as backup.
The main reason I feel he would be a good signing for the right price though is because I don't think we'll get anyone better who'll be willing to sit on the bench for long periods of time. People are talking about the need for higher profile signings, and I would agree with regards to strikers & wingers, but in defence and central midfield I feel we only need to sign backup players in the summer. If we could nick him for £3-4m I'd be happy to see him come.
