    We have let a lot of good players go over the years and, therefore, we always consider them first, but NA and NC have no such links and give them no priority. Always liked players, such as Baird and Surman, but have no idea if they are what we want now.

    I don't think we need that many new players. I think we need to offload the likes off Jahidi, Barnard, Forte etc and replace them with quality to add to the squad.

    A RW and RB are the priority 'IMO'

    Correct. <ok> Commons and Hooper wont leave easy street and the Champion League next season and SPL champions this and next. Fact. :shocked:

    Players like Scott Danns from Blackburn, Zat Knight from Bolton, Maybe Fletcher and / or Doyle from Wolvers will be the type that you go for and get.

    Butterfield will go to Newcastle. Rodriquez will go to Biolton(if they stay up) and link up with Owen Coyle again.

    IF West Ham miss out then maybe Robert Green (Free transfer) and Carlton Cole could also be options for NA.

    SUMMER FUN is about to start. Good luck and all the best. (Hull City Fan in peace.) :smiley:

    Agreed. Very good keeper, but he'd have to be patient. SKD gets first crack.

    I think the positions we need to add to are a CB a CM, both with premier league experience. A striker who can hold the ball like Lambert so we have cover for him if he gets injured, and a Right winger who likes to run at people who has pace too burn. We may need to right back too. I think Davis should be given a chance in the PL and if he is not good enough then we buy a keeper in January.
    I would like Matt Phillips of Blackpool don't go up and we give them Puncheon plus cash.
    I can see a Cortese import up front possibly. Danny Murphy is the kind of player we need but i think he is slightly too old.
    Scott Dann and Roger Johnson would be good, the only reason they have been poor this season is because they have been in teams who are struggling and their confidence is poor.
    Nathaniel Clyne would be good addition especially if his contract is up at the end of the season.

    No there isn't. He lists him in central midfield.

    Sorry, but I really don't think they are that good. Both have had a decent season in the Championship, but I don't think they have done enough to earn the step up. Clyne looks like he could become a very good player, but he's young and not ready yet. Phillips has a lot of pace, but I don't know if he has that much technical ability. I wouldn't be delighted with signing either because I don't think they've proved themselves enough yet.

    He's interested. Apparently, he wants to play with Adam Lallana, who plays down the left and down the right and shows him up every week. ;)
