If we can bring in two more signings and top quality ones this will of been a perfect pre-season with regards to imcoming players. Surely Brucie will go all out for his reported number 1 target in N'Zogbia now and we are in a very strong position to get him now IMO. We are serious about getting a Europa Leageu spot the new signings tell you that so IMO we are a very attractive option to any player at the moment. As for the last of the two we need a striker, Welbeck would be my choice but thee Defoe rumours are not going away, personally it would be interesting to see if Defoe and Gyan work as I aint so sure they would but he would be a good signing as I said Welbeck would be my first choice. Need to get rid of the deadwood and it will be the best summer we have had, the likes of Gordon, Angeleri, Nosworthy, Kilgallon and McCartney if we can shift them 5 on we have had a gret summer.
I'd be disappointed if Gordon goes but it's probably the right decision. Top, top class goalkeeper when he has a ling run in the side but he's very injury prone and we need a settled number 1. The rest can all go. I'll drive them all to different clubs myself. I wouldn't be surprised if Steed and Richardson left too. If we got a left back then Richardson would barely get a game either there or in midfield. Steed however is a tough choice. He's supposedly on big wages but he is a fantastic talent even of his fitness is questionable. I've never seen a player able to walk past so many defenders and make it look so easy. I really hope he stays and starts getting a few goals but I've got a bad feeling he could be off
We will get more than 2 I think Poolie. Welbeck on loan, Quality striker & either Krancjar/Etherington/N'zogbia/Bastos
bruce said he will continue with his philophecy of loan players so wouldn't be surprised to see welbeck, sturridge or bellamy here before the window shuts, bloody hell things are looking good
Definelty keep richardson, he is a good player when played in the correct posistion. The likes of Kilgallon, Nosworthy, Ferdinand, McCartney, Also Gordon and Steed might have to sadly be moved on because of wages/ injuries. Those sales could generate up to around 10m. Bring in at least 1 top class player, either a an out and out left back or a left winger, leaving us with a team for next season of .... Westwood Bardsley O'shea Brown/Titus ? Larsson Cattermole Gardner ? Sessegnon Gyan The reason we need an out and out left sided player is because we have no width down the left currently.
would love to see.... ----------------------- Mignolet ---------------------- - O'Shea ------ Brown --------- Bramble --- Richardson ----------- Gardner -------------- Cattermole -------- - N'Zogbia ----------- Sessegnon ---------- Welbeck - ------------------------ Gyan ----------------------- subs Bardsley Turner Westwood Larsson Vaughan Wickham Ji that team if I may say so is f*****g class!
