    How does this sound?

    Forster
    Simpson Willo Collo Ferguson
    Ben Arfa Barton Nolan Tiote Jonas
    Llorente

    Subs Krul, Airy, Ireland, Guthrie, Perch, Taylor, Ameobi

    Any thoughts? Shows we dont NEED to splash loads of cash next year, I reckon we need to buy more squad players rather then a few first teamers.

    I know itsharsh to drop Nolan, but you asked for my opinion and there it is!

    Looks like too small a squad IMO, I'd like to see:

    Harper
    Simpson-Williamson-Colo-Enrique*
    Tiote-----Nolan
    Barton----Ben Arfa----Jonas
    Gervinho

    Bench: Krul/Forster, Saylor, New RB/LB cover**, Guthrie, Ireland, Best, Gameiro​


    *For the purposes of this I'm going to assume Enrique stays, if he does go, I'd go for Taiwo or M'Bengue.

    **I'll say Paulo Ferriera as I cant think of a younger example, but that's what I think we need IMO.

    It's too hard to fit them all in, attacking wise! Nolan, Tiote, Barton, Ben Arfa and 2 strikers. Also I know Gervinho isnt a big player, but this is in the hope we play our football on the floor next season, as it was meant to be <ok>

    its going to be interesting next season, if we do sign the players we have been linked with over recent weeks......


    pardew we have his hands full keeping everyone happy,picking the 11 especially with the likes guthrie,fegie,vukic, airey coming up.


    going to sound crazy, but next season could be a big one for us.

    The squad would still be far too thin! Need to sign another midfielder and 2 strikers in my opinion.

  8. Llorente is 31 years old so i don't want him.

    --------------Harper/Krul---------------

    Simmo---NewCB-------Colo------Enrique

    --------Barton--------Tiote------------

    -Gervinho-------Nolan----------Ben Arfa

    -----------------Ba-------------------

    Forster No.1 with no prem experience? Plus we wouldn't get Llorente, other than that not bad.

    Think he mean Fernando Llorente, whos about 23. But we wouldnt get him anyway IMO, would need to spend most of the Carroll money and he wouldnt come.

    Forster gets my vote for No1 next season - he has had two full seasons now and was pretty much player of season for Norwich and hasn't made many mistakes for Celtic

  12. Ah ok. lol. I was wondering about all these people asking for Llorente when he's over 30 ahaha

    He's 26.
    I'd prefer Krul, played at this level. Forster has played 2 season of pretty much League 1 football.

  14. If Krul keeps up the standard he showed against Man Utd on Tuesday, then he's my number 1 easily next season. Excellent player and i've always had faith in him. He'll be better than Harper and probably the next Van Der Sar

    Disagree, SPL is more like a Championship so he has had in my eyes a gradual rise whereas Krul has had a handful of games and not always shone. Forster should be given the chance and should be his to lose - if he loses it then yes Krul will be great to stand in.

    Forster does at least deserve a chance, you cant play him in the SPL then say "well he's only played as high as the SPL!". He's beaten what has been put in front of him, and that's all you can do.

  18. Actually that's a poor arguement. I'd say a player that's played 16 games in the PL, and shown he can play well at this level, has proven himself much more than a League 1/SPL wonder. Look at Routledge.....

    Krul has played well with OUR team, therefore he should keep his spot until there is a reason to kick him off the team.
