MM says he wants 10 players
Keeper on the way.
A left back and a centre back (if Gerrard goes - Gabbidon anyone?).
Two wingers and a centre mid.
A striker or two.
That's 8!
Hopefully there'll be a couple of frees, a couple more low cost younsgeters with a few million available for a couple of bits of quality. Most of it's covered in the transfer thread, but the cost bit will be interesting. It would be nice to have £5-6M to spend, but can imagine it being more like £3M. MM has shown what you can get for under a million with the likes of Turner.
£500k each on a couple wingers, £1M each on a striker and a centre mid, a couple £150-250k youngsters and a few frees is about the best we can hope for.
Keeping whitts will be key, but at least we're in the position now where by it's 'IF' we sell a key player rather than 'WHEN'.
