Who we wanting then lads and lasses? For me its a buy what you need situation and not just because the players are available. Therefore the priority positions for me are LB RB CM LM CF, it would be silly too blow 10mill on a CB, getting mensah in will do for 2mill as we should be putting big money into waht we need. Onouha would be my RB choice, im sure it will be a debate with him or Hutton but i want someone who can actually defend as we are still a team which takes enormous amount of pressure a game; theres no good LBs about really, its everyones problem but aslong as we dont sign Figeroa (his half way line goal has made him seem better than he is) For CM, i would have too say get 1 in on a free for cover as i assume next season sessegnon will have that role along side cattermole with henderson and riveros too cover LM, Nzogbia, not everyones cup of tea but for me he is direct and can score a goal, i would love downing but i dont think we will conclude any deals with villa any time soon CF, get Bothroyd in on a bosman for cover and buy 2 top class strikers, none of these 5 goals a season lads who are only big but the goal scoring type who can have the team built around them. I really couldnt tell you who i want (maybe Doyle, ive rated him since he was at Reading and was nocking in the goals for them for fun in the prem) but i think we will get pav from Spurs and probably Defoe if there is little competition for him. Who do you want?
Zog might cost more now that Wigan have survived which is a bit gutting. Would love to see him on the wing for us. I agree with Doyle, he's certainly a talent but I think they'll want top dollar for him.
I doubt Doyle will be moving now Wolves are safe. I'd like Ned and Hutton, not either or. I'm not arsed on N'Zog, but clearly he'd improve us, i'd prefer Dzudzak, and he'll be for sale now PSV missed CL. We will sign Bothroyd i think, and i don't mind that, the other 2 strikers could be absolutely anyone.
Bothroyd fine for the squad but I believe we need a recognised 20+ a season goalscorer. I've read reports that Berbatov might not be what Man Utd want so what about a serious bid for him, use the Bent money, and bid ã25 million. Is he what we need?
Would be a wonderful signing mate, could we pull it off? Would he be interested? The touches and vision of someone of his calibre with the unpredictability of Gyan would be potentially explosive.
Bruce has said he wants 8 or 9 players and I think we need that amount Out - Nosworthy, Kilgallon, McCartney, Angeleri, Mensah, Onuoha, Muntari, Welbeck, Zenden In - Hutton, Figueroa, Samba, Larsson, N'Zogbia, Ba, Heskey, Sturridge (loan)
No mate, I think he would be available on the cheap and would be a decent squad player, would offer something different he aint as bad as everyone makes out and a former Brucie player
Agree with the outs (and the loan players returning to there clubs) In for me Warnock / Figroll Hutton Rodger Johnson (we wont get Samba Arsenal are after him) Onouha Larsson (Free) N`Zogbia Bothroyd (Free) Demba Ba Sturridge / Defoe
For me, 3 of these would show me we mean business next season - Hutton, Larsson, N'Zogbia or Max Gradel, Sturridge. And a world class European international Anything less and I'll be really disapointed !!!
yes he is, he's appaling, **** if bruce signs him i'm joining the bruce out brigade....no no no ****ing heskey
