    i think if u could sign definatly naughton u could be on the way to being a very good side
    mee seems to be a good player and also bruma is good
    i dont think yakubu is special i think u could do better like sign someone like danny graham, steve morison or even Long maybe even sinclair they are all better than yakubu as he is a waste of money to high wages and thinks he is better than he is

    tbf I think he's got it spot on. I would also like to get Bruma on the evidence so far but it seems very unlikely.

    Glad we only got Yakubu on loan because it turns out I wouldn't want him. We need a similar kind of player but one who isn't fat and lazy.

    Still wish we'd got James Vaughan tbh.

    Ye Vaughney would fit into our line-up nicely.

    I'd still like to see Waghorn given a good run in the first team, I reckon he could do a very good job for us - still young and will develop into a bloody good player I reckon.

    Yeh agreed, Yakubu and Vassell have had a lot of chances now and aren't really delivering. Yakubu has really gone off the boil and doesn't seem bothered, Vassell I'm told had a good game at Scunny but generally I feel he needs to bring more to the team. As I said after the Norwich game, I would drop Yakubu and tell Waggy he's the main man until the end of the season. He'll have 9 games to prove his potential and find some form.

    In the summer I think we'll need to find another striker anyway but Waghorn deserves a chance. If nothing else he's got the right attitude, which is what we need now, especially if we have any hopes at all of making the play-offs. 12 goals last season and has more than Vassell this with less game time.

    would like naughton but think he will go to QPR, we need a more mobile tall striker with vasell to play off his shoulder, a good winger new goalie (Cov goalkeeper fogot his name!) and we are sorted

    For next season if we dont go up i think our team should be

    New Keeper

    Naughton
    Bamba
    Hobbs
    Left back

    Gallagher
    Wellens
    King
    Winger

    Striker
    Striker

    Dyer, Waghorn, Mee, Weale, Abe aswell and then a few more players to add competition

    I think Mee will make a very good left back. I'd be happy with him there. Obviously agree that we get Naughton on a perm.

    Can't see Hobbs coming back though I would like him too. So I think we'll be getting a new centre back (on a permanent I hope)

    New Keeper I agree with, though part of me still thinks Weale can do the biz.

    New striker I agree with. I would like to see Waggy play a bigger part but I think we'll need another one anyway.

    Personally, I think Gallagher is wasted in a 4-4-2. If he gets stuck out on the wing he can't beat anyone for pace. In a 4-3-3 it's easier for him to come inside and get into the box. He also seems to get more space which gives him a chance to shoot. I think a 4-3-3 suits him and our style of play. So I hope Sven perserveres with 4-3-3.

    I would like some more midfielders for competition and a winger or 2 to play on the right of the front 3, and also so we can change the system to 4-4-2 for example) if needed.

    I think we need a holding midfielder for 4-3-3 to work properly though.

    So my wishlist would be:
    Keeper
    Centre back
    Holding midfielder
    bring Moussa back for competition
    Winger
    Striker (maybe 2)

    So that's 6 players in essence. Sounds quite a lot but we can get rid of the deadwood and those that haven't made the grade: Ricardo, Lamey, Van Aanholt, Moreno, Oakley, Howard, Yakubu, Logan, (anyone else i've forgot?)

    I assume Bruma and Vitor will go back.

    At the end of the season

    Neilson, Moreno, Oakley, Howard, Berner, N'Guessan, Kennedy, Lamey,

    All have to go one way or another. Harsh on Bruno but he looked so far off the pace against Norwich, either he has to be first choice or they isnt any point in keeping him. Out of the loans Benfica want Vitor back, Chelsea would want Van Aanholt and Bruma back i would imagine. I think Man City would sell Ben Mee and would should look if they would sell Greg Cunningham. Yakubu has 9 games left to prove something, i dont think he wants to stay if we dont go up. Spurs i think would sell Naughton depending on what they do in the summer. They probaly rate Kyle Walker higher as he is in the England team and playing in the prem now.

    Forgot about N'Guessan and Kennedy. Yeh they can go too.

    Agree with that. The shame is Bruno could have played a bigger part this season, he's certainly better than Van Aanholt (the Norwich game aside) and I think he was better than Cunningham, who was great going forard but not convincing defensively. Hopefully Sven will get Mee (can't imagine Man City needing him) on a permanent and I think that'll be it for Berner's chances.

    Fingers crossed Spurs let Naughton go <ok>
