How many more? And who?

Assuming Gardner, Larsson and Westwood are done deals, how many more signings do you think are still to come? And who do you think (or want) them to be?

For me, I think we will get:

Welbeck - on loan
Onouha - $6m
O'shea - $5m
Gibson - $5m

Would love to see us also have a dip at:

Sturridge
R. Johnson
Samba
N'Zogbia

I think with Frazer hoping to be back around Christmas Bruce will be happy to go in to the season with the strikers we currently have, although I wouldn't be surprised to see Danny back on line. Considering our added attacking quality from midfield and the fact that both Sess and Richo are more than capable of playing just off the striker I am fairly happy going forward.

Definitely think that O'shea and Onouha would help to shore up our defense, and as proposed by someone on another thread, would be more than happy with the following as a match day squad:

--------------- Westwood ---------------
O'shea -- Onouha -- Bramble -- Bardo
Larsson ----- Cattermole ----- Gardner
Sessegnon ------ Gyan ------ Welbeck

Mignolet
Turner
Richo
Wickham
Colback
Gibson
Dong

 

My guess would be..

Gibbson and Oshea from United
Welbeck on loan
I think we need a defender and it will depend on if we get Oshea and where Bruce seems him playing so could be full back or CB.
I still see one big money move to come either N'Zogbia or a rabbitt out of the hat

 

Think a lot of it depends on his transfer kitty...

As all these wages are building up..

 

no mention of Elmo

 

I have to admit, in that squad, Elmo would be cover. As would Steed ( if he is still around)

 

Providing we sign Garner and Ji I rekon we still need

RB - Hutton?
CB - ?
CM - Gibson?
W - ?
CF - Welbeck (loan)?

 

That team wouldnt work, 4-4-2 is what we should be playing and with signings in their right positions and a good balance to the team ie. a left winger and a new left back.

That 4-3-3 lacks width, which is what Bruce looks to be trying to build, and your formation is probably similar to what we would have played last season.

I would go for;



-------------------Mignolet ---------------
Bardo ------- Onouha -- Bramble ----NEW LEFT BACK
Larsson/Sessegnon -- Cattermole --- Gardner--NEW LEFT WINGER
------------ Gyan ----- Welbeck/Whickham---------

 

I would go with...

----------------------- Mignolet -----------------------

-- Hutton ------ Bramble ------ ??????? --- Richardson --

---------- Gardner ---------------- Cattermole ---------

Larsson -------------- Sessegnon ------------- Welbeck

------------------------ Gyan -------------------------

subs: Turner, Bardsley, Westwood, Gibson, ???, Ji, Wickham

 

Are them prices in Aussie dollars?
