    So out of the teams you think will be relegated who would you like us to take a look at and maybe have a punt at?

    I think:

    QPR - no-one. Too many egos and will be too expensive
    Wolves - Hennessey, Jarvis, Fletcher and Doyle I think are good players and I'd hope wouldn't be too expensive but we don't need another international GK
    Wigan - Roddalega and Moses.

    If Bolton were for the drop I'd quite fancy Mark Davis.

    You have the floor.

    Victor Moses, Ali Al-Habsi, and and maybe one or two of Wigan's starlets. They've got a kid called Mcmannaman who looks very good, and Shawn Maloney also looks handy.

    Onuoha (CB ) from QPR , got lost in the richness of Man city & might not get a full season with QPR in the Premier

    Yes the vultures are circling. Didn't think we'd be one of them, but that's business I suppose. I think Wigan have quite a few decent players who play the Swansea way and would fit right in.

    Goalkeepers are a breed apart. Ali Al-Habsi has been one of the better keepers in the Prem and he may not be happy playing second fiddle to Vorm. However, if Vorm was to go to a bigger club then yes.

    Rodallega and Moses are both very good and I also like Diame and Bausejour.

    QPR? Tarrabt please! Provided Rodgers is confident of controlling the ego. Cisse & Onuoha both class acts.

    Wolves: Jarvis & Richards

    Bolton: Davies

    That said, not many of the above are better than what we've got imo. Just a thought.

    MON, I echo your selections but there should be quite a few pretty decent players who Buck could train do a job for us from the relegated clubs.

    i still don't think we're in a position where we can sign quality premier player's, the wages will be too much for us. up and coming player's maybe, but not the likes of-onouha,rodalega or tarrabt

    Taarabt would do more harm than good in a squad like ours imo. Plus has he even scored a goal this season? Not for me, keep the core strong and the egos away!

    I can see that argument. That's why I said Rodgers would have to be pretty certain he could control the ego. The guy can be a match winner, no doubt.

    These are the players from the bottom 3 clubs that i think we could realistically afford and have a decent shout at signing
    Wigan - Moses, McCarthy, McArthur, Caldwell??
    Wolves - Doyle, O'Hara maybe
    QPR - Faurlin

    JD - Caldwell, really? I've seen icebergs move quicker. He was so slow to react with Norwich's goal on Sunday. He's getting a bit past it too.

    Now Faurlin, that's an excellent shout.

    I wouldn't touch any of them - except perhaps for Wolves reserve keeper <whistle>

    ... and maybe Faurlin, he has some skill.

    Forgot about Faurlin. Good one. <ok>

    I'd also forgotten about Wolves' reserve keeper! <laugh>

    Faurlin is a great shout and I've always liked Moses so I'd love to have him. What about Federico Macheda? (I know it'd probably be on loan from UTD)

    Not many stand out for me.

    Like the lad Doyle of Wolves, Moses of Wigan another decent player. Gomez NO, after getting Dyer sent off. NOBODY from QPR.

    Me also Cracker , to think I used defend this guy when he played for us, would never want someone like that who bring bad karma to the team.
