    We desperatley need another CB. Taylor is out all the time, and his positional awareness lets him down alot. He's got good ariel threat, can win things in the air, good strength, can tackle well, but he sometimes lets players out of his sights too easily. Williamson is the same. I'd be happy with them as cover, but i want someone better.

    ------------------------Harper-----------------------

    Simmo----------Samba----------Colo--------------Jose

    Downing?New RW?-Barton----------Tiote-------------Jonas

    -----------------------Ben Arfa------------------------

    -----------------------Sturridge-----------------------

    Subs:

    Forster
    Best
    Nolan
    Gosling
    Taylor
    Ferguson
    Ranger

    I don't know why people think we have any chance of getting Gervihno, unless we want to spend up to 20m, which would be a ridiuclous fee. The likes of Liverpool will be chasing him, therefore it wont be as simple as putting in a 15m quid bid.
    Any ideas on a new RW?

    Maybe an in form Ireland but i'm not sure. I don't want Gameiro. I'd like Gervihno but i reckon it would be a massive task to get his signature. If we did get him i'd play him RW.

    He's Ivorian so maybe Tiote can help him make the switch.

    That's 5 TOP quality players there. I also think that Harper/Krul/Foster can be top quality goalies, so that's 6 players.

    The remaining quality players:

    Simpson
    Nolan
    Jonas
    Best
    Willo

    They're good, but we could do better, and improving on these will be the key to our success.

    Simpson - Could well have the potential to be good enough if he keeps improving. He's already pretty damn good.

    Nolan - Good at scoring goals, but CM is such a key part of the overall ability of the team, and we need a top midfielder to partner Tiote. Barton could fill this role, and if he did, we'd just need to find a great winger.

    Jonas - Good on his day. If he became more consistent with his performances and learned to cross more, then he could be good enough.

    Best - Good, and I'd keep him in the team, but we could improve. It depends really. If he keeps up his current goal ratio I'd keep him as first choice personally. You would struggle to find anything better.

    Willo - Decent, but we could get our defence much stronger if we had a better and more suited CB to partner Colo.
