    Pleeeeease. With the ability to score. Ramirez is capable of playing anywhere in the 3, Davis looks great on the bench. We have room for more AMs.

    It's alright guys let's scratch a striker off the wanted list, we've got Billy Sharp coming back.

    Who would I like?

    Well I like the look of Jetro Willems at LB
    Van Dijk, Martins Indi and De Vrij at CB all look quality at reasonable prices
    Marshall or Forster GK (Ochoa would be cool though)
    Not convinced by Tadic, like Viktor Fischer though and Luc Castaignos (though not sure if he's started playing more for inter now), heard good things about Alvaro Vadillo, but not seen him play or if he's gone elsewhere yet
    Really unsure about strikers that we could actually attract - Drmic? Cabella? Lasogga? Uche? (though I do like Giuseppe Rossi)

    Anyway, my twopennth (and I'm fair from a scouting expert!)

    I think Fischer has majorly flopped since last summer, or whenever it was Liverpool were interested.

    Is anyone likely to take a punt on Bendtner, available on a free? Could Ron knock some sense into him? Imagine it - Bendtner and Osvaldo, our opening strike force for the first game of the season!!!!

    A step in class though as a striker would be Hernandez from Manchester United. Would he be interested in coming to us though???

    Are you trying to push us over the edge?

    John Motson certainly prepares for every game that he ever commentates on. Just listen to him rattle off lots of information about this player and that when you next hear his commentaries, particularly on radio.

    Not difficult to choose the better politician and more likeable person of the two that you have mentioned, and it certainly isn't Boris.

    for what it's worth (and assuming we don't lose any first teamers apart from RL, AL and LS) I'd be looking at Willems, one of the 3 feyenoord centre backs, Origi, Hernandez, Keylor Navas and a winger (wouldn't be dissapointed with Tadic). I think that amount of transfers is pretty much the minimum we will need.

    The squad is now very thin in many areas.

    So assuming Osvaldo and Lovren leave, this is our current squad:

    Boruc
    Gazza
    Davis

    Targett
    Fonte
    Yoshida
    Jos
    Chambers
    Clyne

    Wanyama
    Morgan
    Cork
    JWP
    Davis
    Ramirez
    Reed
    Rodriguez

    Gallagher
    Sharp

    Definitely need 2 centre backs, a left back, 2 strikers, a wide player and a number 10...

    Loads of money to spend just need to shop wisely. I'm sure Ron will.

    Who is the third? Joris Mathijsen? I'm alright without him.

    Was thinking of Indi, De Vrij and Kangolo - all youg internationals who are highly regarded.

    Lots of talk in Holland about Van Beek as well. Too soon for him to join us but having a young pretender may allow Feyenoord to sell a couple.

    Ah okay Kongolo. I thought he was more of a left back, plays both like Martins Indi I suppose.

    That's without signings. It wouldn't get relegated either. We'd win the midfield battle against everyone.
