took the words right out of my mouth.. you're the sort who would want a Barton, Bowyer, King, Diouf dream team of shame aren't ya?
Galatasaray won't be winning the Turkish league next season then with Elmander up front & they were shyte this season too ending up 8th with a -5 GD.. and this is a club which should be top 3every season in their league.. think they've got cash worries..
There are so many clubs on the up in Turkey though, such as those household names and footballing powerhouses Bursaspor and Trabzonspor
theres some good players to pick at in there...caldwell an experianced centre half an i like david jones good passer to name just two
The players from the list that i think would be good realistic signings are: Jason Koumas Jonathan Spector Daniel Gabbidon Daniel De Ridder Marcus Hahnemann Lee Bowyer Maik Taylor Kevin Phillips Marlon Harewood Richard Kingson Andy Reid Tamir Cohen Michael Woods Sam Hutchinson Iain Turner Diomansy Kamara Bolo Zenden Giles Barnes Obviously i dont expect all of these to be signd but any of them would improve the team and be a good signing and i think the wage demands would be reasonable too.
You don't say Koumas, Gabbidon, Bowyer, Reid, Cohen, Zenden and Kamara are not realistic. Financially we wouldn't be able to compete for any of them. De Ridder is ****e, Phillips is going to Watford, Hutchinson hasn't played for christ knows how long (since being tipped a future England right back by Mourinho) and Spector is going back to the US I believe. I think Hahnemann, Maik Taylor and Giles Barnes are the only realistic players there who could do a job for us. Barnes has great ability - he's probably good enough for the PL in fairness - but his injury record is dire. The two keepers mentioned have great experience, but Taylor spent much of last season out injured as well. Hahnemann would be fantastic, but I'm unsure whether that would ever materialise. Not exactly one for the future
I must admit i am one of those people who does like a controversial character in the side. I like someone who can get our fans going and wind up the opposing players i just feel that someone like a savage/diouf would really get the fans going and create a bit of and atmosphere. They would also help make the KC somewhere that opposing players dread.
