Just a bit of fun for any who want to try their hand at predicting the ins and outs at Carrow Road this summer.

INCOMING:

Predict a maximum of 5 defenders (includes a possible GK), 4 midfielders, and 4 strikers who you think may join in the summer. Permanent transfers, not loans.

10 pts for each correct incoming prediction

OUTGOING:

Predict who you think will leave in the summer, and where they will go to, you can predict both the league you think they will go to, and the club if you feel very sure - there´s no limit here.

10 pts for each correct outgoing prediction, an extra 10 if you can correctly predict their league destination, an extra 30 if you correctly predict their new club.

Now comes the tough bit - DEADLINE IS ONCE THE LAST MATCH OF THE SEASON HAS BEEN PLAYED - because we know how quickly Lambert usually gets off the mark.

**Don´t forget you can always edit right up to Deadline Time**

I think this will be a hard one to crack, but all the very best if you decide to have a go.

rbf :)
 
I´ll start off with a couple of tentative OUTS

Drury - destination Championship - Peterborough
Lappin - destination Scottish Premier League
Chris Martin - destination Championship - C. Palace

INS:

Strikers: Jay Rodriguez

Jay Rodriguez

Outgoing
Ward - Championship - Nottingham Forest
Drury - Championship - Cardiff (dependant on play off's)

Do loans count or excluding loans?
 
Incoming

Defenders - Kyle Naughton, Chris Gunter, Richard Stearman and Curtis Davies

Midfielders - Robert Snodgrass, Liam Bridcutt and Chris Burke

Just permanent transfers, YellowLittle, I think it would be a bit complicated to add possible loans as well.

Elmohamady is a good shout, as is Best and the only reason I didn't put him is I doubt he'd want to leave a team that will be in Europe. I do hope you're wrong about Roger Johnson!
 
Elmohamady is a good shout. I do hope you're wrong about Roger Johnson!

my thinking on johnson is that lambert briefly worked with him before. he's a good defender but has had a difficult season. depending on price and if his attitude is right, he could be worth a shout. i'm not hoping we get him - just putting it out there that lambert might well fancy bringing him in - last chance saloon and all that <ok>

If we do sign him, I think its fair say Lambert will of made sure his attitude was right, so that would ease my worry.<ok>
