    If we can gain anouther young prospect (who can look at moses) and see that playing can help more then sitting in the reserves then i think we can push on next season...

    You need a finisher mate, even a 12-15 a season man could see you in 12th or thereabouts.

    Doyle? Fletcher? Odimwingie? Rhodes?

    Good idea Comm, Whickham.

    Ji needs to go to the Championship for a while I think, where he'll get hit hard a wee bit more.

    no i dont think so... players wont come to us (or whouldnt before moses) because of our bad crowds.... but the scouting team has improved and moses has shown young kids (like wickham did dropping liverpool for sunderland) that going to the litle teams is better then reserves so you never know who we will get... Jean Beausejour saved our season this year when we got him from birmingham for apparently somthing stupid like 20k <laugh>

    I like Beausejour, remember noticing him in the World Cup for Chile, I missed his transfer to you guys, didn't realise till I tried to sign him on Fifa, haha.

    I thought it was a loan like, if not , he was probably on silly wages and they needed rid.

    He's a Chilean hero by all accounts, think they'd gone 4- years without a win in the World Cup and he scored the winner, can't remember who against, someone pony.

    Chile were smashing to watch, they outplayed Spain for long periods till they went a man down, really varied waves of attack.

    Without a doubt Dempsey is the pick of them players, but breaking the bank for Wellbeck/Pavlechenko bringing Kenwyne back, Yakubu plus two good powerfull defenders (one in the air) Adam johnstone if QPR go down S W Philips, Hunt/doyle from wolves. Or any of the Man city players available in the summer.

    Dempsey is superb, underrated for years, but now everyone has twigged.

    I'd be amazed if we got him, but I doubt we have a chance.

    Roy Hodgson is prepared to cash in on Peter Odemwingie in the summer &#8211; to make way for Andy Johnson.

    West Brom boss Hodgson will consider moving the Nigeria star on after the striker had a *disappointing second season up front at the Hawthorns.

    Hodgson is planning a major re-shuffle of his strike-force, with Chris Wood and Simon Cox also expected to leave as he looks for the support of Baggies owner Jeremy Peace to take the club on to the next level.

    Fulham striker Johnson, set to be available on a free transfer in June, is the first-choice replacement.
