What I Think Would Be A Fantastic Team For Next Season

Goalkeepers:
- S Harper
- T Krul
- F Forster

Defenders:
- D Simpson
- R Taylor

- M Williamson
- S Taylor
- F Coloccini
- P Jones

- J Enrique / J Angel
- S Ferguson

Midfielders:
- K Lua Lua
- J Gutierrez

- K Nolan
- C Tiote
- D Gosling
- S Ireland

- J Barton
- H Ben Arfa

Forwards:
- S Ameobi
- Gervinho
- M Sow
- L Best

In:
Phil Jones - £10 million
Jose Angel* - £6 million
Stephen Ireland - £5 million
Moussa Sow - £12 million
Gervinho - £15 million
Total: £48 million

Out:
Nile Ranger - Loan
Jose Enrique* - £15 million
James Perch - £500k
Peter Lovenkrands - £1 million
Danny Guthrie - £2 million
Shefki Kuqi - Released
Sol Campbell - Released
Total: £3.5 million

This along with youngsters such as Vuckic, Donaldson, Airey etc.

Unrealistic some may say but I think this could definitely push for top ten/ Europe.

* If Enrique leaves

 

Looks good that, include Doyle,Hazard and Taabart and that would be a good squad.

 

Sorry mate, this isn't FM.

 

Would be brilliant thats for sure. Relies on all key players staying which still waits to be seen and would also need MA to put in a bit of his own money, but hey, if it happens it'll be brilliant

 

Yeah just a bit of dreaming for a bored monday night!

 

No chance we will spend £48m if we just take in £3.5m from sales.

More chance of spending hopefully £25m. Gervinho, Ba & Samba.

 

Yeah looking back it was quite a lot to spend... maybe in 2 years...

 

I agree but what about kevin gameiro from lorient fc?

 

Looks good, but there's no way Cashley will splash that much cash. We can dream though.

Also, some will go to much higher clubs (Jones) and there's even less chance that Lille will sell Gervinho and Sow.

 

Aye, just some wishful thinking as I just had a little fm session. Would need to drug Cashley and rely on some good business for this to happen, but there's always dreaming

In
Loach- 2 Million
Jarvis- 9 Million
Milner- 14 Million
D Graham- 4 Million
D Sturridge- 10 Million
Wright- Phillips- 6 Million

 

Maybe one or two back up defenders aswell.

 

Loach would be a good signing, seen him play a few times...

 

Yeah worth a few Million, maybe a sub or future 1st choice if he continues to develop.

 

Why Loach, when Krul is just as good, and has PL experience.

Also, why Milner and SWP, I'd rather have Adam Johnson.

One more flaw, Sturridge will stay at Chelsea, now they have seen how good he is, and that Torres is useless.

And finally, Danny Graham would be too much of a risk for £4 million. I'd rather have Craig Mackail-Smith.

 

Hazard would never come to Newcastle mate. He has been linked with the biggest and the best clubs in Europe this year.

 

Yeah CMS and Danny Graham would both be good in a view as back ups mate. Milner would be good back at Newcastle I think. Shaun Wright-Phillips would offer something different for you and I think you would be great.

 

Lads stop playing FM.. get back to reality!

 

Graham is a natural goalscorer and has a fair bit of pace, could get 8-10 goals in the premiership imo. (See him a fair bit down at Watford)

 

Ryan Bertrand would be a good back up left back, I know him, He is a England under 21 at Chelsea never gets to play due to Ashley Cole as they will never change him in the team, I went to school with Ryan he is a great lad, Come through Gillingham academy, Maybe 2 Million for him, maybe up to 4.
