Im really chuffed, hopefully we dont sell anyone, one young and promising centre back is needed and then thats our buisness completed.
 
Agree. Hopefully get that guy on loan from Cesena to beef up the numbers and it means were not commiting to a permanent deal until the end of the season.

Some sqaud we have now though:

GK- KRUL,HARPER,ELLIOTT

FULL BACKS- SANTON,SIMPSON,TAVERNIER,FERGUSON,R TAYLOR (LAST 2 ARE OBVIOULSY VERSATILE)

CB- WILLIAMSON,COLO, S TAYLOR, *NEW SIGNING*

MIDFIELD- JONAS,CABAYE,TIOTE,OBERTAN,GUTHRIE,SAMMY,ABEID,VUCKIC,PERCH

WORLDCLASS PLAYERMAKER- BEN ARFA

STRIKERS- BA,CISSE,SHOLA,BEST,LOVENKRANDS

Happy days guys!!!
 
Centre back, full back and right winger is what we need, though if we get just the centre back than will do for this window and we can look to push on in the summer.
 
I agree, although as things stand at the moment if the only player we sign is Cisse and we manage to keep all of our squad, I shall be happy. Would like to see a centre back come in but I'm more concerned about keeping the players we've got - looking forward to the next two weeks being over!
 
Call me greedy but now's the time to move for Junior Hoillet, 6 million fills the right mid berth for years to come. Can beat a man and can score and is pacey. Also I agree we need a defender and I'd say a CB is much more urgent than a LB. We have Simmo, Raylor and Santon to cover wing backs (and Tavernier, Perch, Fergie perhaps even Gosling if needs be) but, given the Perchiniho isn't a cb and Taylor is out for the season, we need CB either cover or even a 1st teamer. Cover at the very least because and injury to a cb could derail all the good work we've done this season to get where we are. Imagine Willo and Perch at CB <shudder>

Greedy.
 
I think we need a CB, a ball playing type, similar to the style of Colo.

Then, come summer, we should sign a pacy RW who can cross a ball. Not one who cuts inside like HBA.

And then, I think we will have a squad as good as Arsenal/Liverpool.
 
Centre back, full back and right winger is what we need, though if we get just the centre back than will do for this window and we can look to push on in the summer.

Obviously some can leave when this happens as well. I would say the priority should be in this order:

CB
RM
LB

Though obviously if a player for any of these positions becomes available at a great price then it should be considered.

TBH, the LB and RM could wait until we offload some of the less capable players IE Perch. (Really don't like knocking our players, but unfortunately he just isn't up to it.)
 
A CB is a real priority but if we want to be serious contenders for Europe next season then I'd say that we need another CM/DM . The likes of Vuckic, Gosling and Abeid aren't PL standard yet and need to get some matches under their belt, maybe a loan would benefit them ...
