There are as many dark days as rosy days in football management and you have to get through them. I think we have to look at strengthening in January." I say 4 2 on loan and 2 permanent deals to really kick us on
We missed a trick not going for Diame on a free. Steven Nzonzi went to Stoke too. Both are the type we need.
in Jan: ball playing cm fitb rose on permanent summer: another cm a young, fit CB get shot of the dross if they cannot step up this season
??? have to agree though mate we are crying out for 2 quality central midfielders even if they cost us 20m they will be worth it if they can dictate the play, offer us height, power, can put there foot in abit and certainly offer us some creativity. we defo need to sign Rose, the lad is a must, he has been outstanding for us agree with a CB as well, our 5 probably will be down to 3 in the summer as I cannot see us offering new contracts to Killa and Bramble are all slow and all not exactly reliable in terms of playing on a regular basis. Brown, Cuellar and O'Shea seem prone to picking up niggling injuries that keep them out for a few weeks at a time, we need a quality ball playing cb with age on there side and abit of pace so we can play higher up the pitch, probably even 2 CB's I also think we need 2 strikers, just been reading from someone on the SMB that rumours curculating down Arsenal that Bendtner is unhappy at Juve and we have agreed to sign him on a permanent deal in the summer, I would love it if true but with Saha and Campbell unlikely to get new contracts, Ji will probably go as well and god knows what will happen with Wickham (loan?) I wouldn't rule out Fletcher being the only current striker in our squad next season. I hope.... Jan ball playing CM RB Rose Winger Summer CB x2 Box to Box Midfielder CF x2
P.S. I'd hate to see your credit card bill Poolie coz you sure do like shopping! Half of the above would do me (I hope), as too many at once is too unsettling. Not that I want to settle for the ****e we've been churning out recently, so who knows......
We need a right winger with pace and skill and who can also chip in with sum goals. like i said in the summer sum1 like matty phillips and we need sum1 like osman from everton who likes a tackle but is very good with the ball at his feet and gets goals or maybe noble from west ham or sum1 with a bit height for midfield and then get rid of sum of our sicknote cb and get a ball playing speedy young cb in the summer. A bit much to ask but i can always dream haha
Victor Wanyama? Maybe out of our league but defo worth a try. Was a rumour Mon was watching Granqvist and Lustig of Sweden, both defenders. Obviously take Rose, and would like to see us in for Tom Ince at Blackpool.
Agree with wayama or how ever you spell it Quillips! Need Celtic to go out though and he still may want Europen football. He does look excellent. Who knows if premier league attraction is enough? Think others will want him too but like you say you never know if you never try. I think we could do with around 5 new first team players and that shows the extent of the problems (that is to push on up the league) I don't feel we will be relegated with the current crop. O'Neill needs time to build a team. This means 2-3 players max per window. 1-2 in January. I think we may get Rose 4-6 mil area maybe someone on loan till end of season Marty to bring in another 2 or so next summer. Bringing 8-9 players of average quality will not help us. Steve Bruce has shown that.
