Barnetta, Matuidi, Erding, Ba and Zog.

Linked to all of them today...and that's "six new players" that Pardew was on about. I'd have them all to be honest. Barnetta's someone we should've signed a few years ago...It's a shame about Gervinho like isn't it?

P.s. All 6 of those players are aged between 24 and 26, so they're all a good age.

P.p.s. Blaise Matuidi was one of the most frequent swaps i got during last summers World Cup Sticker Album collection farce which almost ruined my life socially AND financially.

 

yeah I totally agree although I can't really see much benefit in signing that Matuidi bloke like?
He's worse than what we already have in that department and with cabeye, tiote, nolan, barton and HBA all competing for a role in the central areas I just don't see how he would fit in?

Ba, Zog and Barnetta yes!

 

Can't see us moving for Matuidi unless Barton and/or Nolan are sold. He seems like an expensive buy to probably sit on the bench.

 

Maybe Fat Mike had a World Cup Sticker Album too, and thinks that all the best players are the most popular stickers...If that's the case, expect us to sign Tim Wiese 13 times, Somen Tchoyi off West Brom, and some North Korean fella who looks like he's up to something.

 

Wouldn't mind Tchoyi, it would mean he wouldn't score against us

 

hate to point out the flaw in your theory, but I am only counting 5 names.

 

World Cup Sticker Album collection farce isn't that the mackem scout where as we have youtube/football manager/fifa 11.

 

cabaye

 

Think he is counting Cabaye.

 

ahaha,

If we Nolan left( BArton is probably staying and Jose stayed, we would have a sick squad

GK Krul, Harps, Soderberg, Forster
DL Jose, Naylor, Fergie
DR Simmo, raylor, Saylor
DC Collo, Hubnik(I hope!), Willo, Saylor, Kadar
DMC Tiote, Matuidi
MC Barton, Cabaye, Guthrie, Gosling
AML Ben Arfa, Jonas
AMR Barnetta, The Zog
ST Erdinc, Best, Ba, Hoarau( I hope), Lover, Shola and Nile

in the formation
GK
DR-DC-DC-DL
DMC
MC-MC
AMR AML
ST

This formation would really work

 

I was assuming Taylor, but being a nit!

 

What about Naylor

 

Yeah i was including Naylor... Cabaye has already signed, so 6 from now...

 

Surely if we sign Erdinc, Ba and Hoarau, then we'd get rid of some like Ranger, Lovenkrands and maybe Shola.

 

In- Neil Taylor (£1m), Cabaye (£4.3m), Zog (£11m), Ba (Free), Erdinc (£8m), Barnetta (£6m), M'Bengue (£6m), Gardner (£5m), Reo Coker (Free)- £41.3m

Out- Nolan (£4m), Enrique (£9m), Barton (£4m), Routledge (£2m), Guthrie (£2m) - £21m

Net transfer spend- £20m


I will be a very happy chap with that. Throw into the mix HBA and Gosling coming back, they will effectively be new signings and then theres Lua Lua, Vuckic and Ferguson knocking on the door as back up.

Starting to assemble a good squad...... All conjecture at the moment though, need to see a few more confirmations in

Smith, Guthrie, Lovenkrands and Ameobi contracts up this season along with harper, Xisco, Routledge, Raylor the year after (obviously if they are not sold)

Colocinnis is also up next year, id like him to stop on but he will need to take a wage cut.

Wage bill should come down and we get some of the dross of the books at long last

 

@spenceh95

you forgot to add OT to your sig. he's giving up lentils!.

 

This, but without Shola and Lover. Also, why would we sign Hourau, Erdinc and Ba if we only play one striker. I'd rather not have Hourau.

 

Hardcore. All the way; every day.

 

I was just thinking that
