    Campbell was released so we'll just take Puyol for free :p

    This is what I drew up a couple of weeks ago (it doesnt have any of the random conditions tash put on it):

    Out
    Routledge - £1.5 million
    Perch - £500,000*
    Smith - £1 million
    Enrique - £8 million
    Forster - £3 million
    Campbell - released
    Kuqi - released
    Ranger - loan (option to recall)
    Forster - loan
    Airey - loan

    TOTAL: £14 million

    In
    DJ Campbell - £5 million
    Demba Ba - £8 million
    N'Zogbia - £12 million
    Onuoha - £4 million
    Warnock - £2.5 million

    TOTAL: £31.5 million


    Team

    Harper

    Onuoha
    Taylor
    Colloccini
    Warnock

    Gutierrez
    Tiote
    Barton
    N'Zogbia

    Ben Arfa

    Ba

    Subs:
    Krul
    Williamson
    Simpson
    Guthrie
    Nolan
    Campbell
    Best

    Reserves:
    Soderberg
    Tavernier
    Williamson
    Kadar
    Ferguson
    Gosling
    R. Taylor
    Vuckic
    Richardson
    Lua Lua
    Ameobi
    Lovenkrands



    Basically I'm resigned to the fact Enrique is leaving so I sell him. Many people will think Warnock is a naff replacement, but he should do a sturdy job for 1/2 years before Ferguson takes his place. I think spending big money on a young left-back from abroad is pointless as it will just block Fergie's route to the first team. I also brought in Onuoha as I dont think Simpson is good enough to be a regular starter. I know he is currently a mackem, but everytime I've seen him play he's looked good, and he can cover the whole back four. All of my signings are premier league proven so should take little time settling in and be low risk.


    Pardew, watch your back!
