I would take Annan When I have watched him for Ghana I have been very impressed with him and would rather play him over Cattermole, he's a classy DM, not scared of a tackle and when he wins the ball can pick a pass. His club Schalke want rid and have not even included him in there pre-season which Annan has called embarrassing. As for Johnson we need this lad, he would offer so much to our side down the right and would chip in with around 10goals I rekon. Hope we get some transfers in soon because we need 6 IMO (LB, CM. W & 3CF) or we will struggle.
Definetly need Johnson on the right wing, but sess still needs to be playing behind the the 2 strikers (when we sign them!).
Aye, agreed Poolie, Johnson would be a massive statement from our club, and a platform for further new quality additions !
Just a thing, if your on about we need a right winger desperately....correct me if I am wrong but wasnt Larsson our joint top scorer last season?
Aye that our strict wage controls that is a major part of the owner policy has been binned and a cue will form at the gaffers door of malcontents Sure Johnson will take a 50% pay cut.......
Don't know much about this Annan fella but I think Cattermole has looked class so far in preseason, think he may have his best season yet this year.
cannot see us playing 2 strikers with Sess at the club, MoN has set up with one main striker every game this pre season.
I'll stick me neck out here and do a big chris. Adam Johnson will arrive here next week provisionally on loan for the season with both ourselves & the player having the option to make it permanent. I will also be bold enough to suggest that a French centre forward and an African left back will be signed next week.
If true would rule out the talk of Guidetti coming. Would love to get him on a long term contract for around 8m but I think it will be more like 12m
