Koumas and McShane: In demandSunderland boss Roy Keane has set his sights on West Brom duo Jason Koumas and Paul McShane following Albion's Championship play-off heartache. The Baggies were defeated 1-0 by Derby at Wembley on Monday and the majority of their big-name players are expected to leave The Hawthorns this summer.Koumas has made no secret of his desire to play in the Premiership, which would seem to rule out a move to Celtic, who have also been linked with the midfielder. Roy Keane is likely to face competition from a host of other clubs should he firm up his interest in the 27-year-old, but a move for Koumas' team-mate McShane could help seal the deal.
The Ireland international only joined Albion in the summer from Manchester United but a series of top class performances have seen him emerge as one of the Championship's most highly-rated defenders. Although his preferred position is in central defence, the 21-year-old has filled in at right-back on numerous occassions this season, something that is likely to appeal to Keane following the end of Danny Simpson's loan spell.
He was used as bait for Kuzczcak's transfer to United. Well done, Paul.
