    No they're not buying a host of over-rated oldies with a history of being mercenaries on mahoosive wages.

    They're just improving upon what they have. Mad comparison.

    We've signed two players but already, and this hopefully isn't too rose-tinted, I feel our transfer aims are of a higher standard, a higher quality of player.

    I think we will sign a similar amount of players too, they're just doing it quickly.

    Lets think...

    1 or 2 GK's
    1 or 2 CB's
    Clyne
    Davis
    Rodriguez

    and maybe Buttner?

    That's a possible 8 players there.

    Stick a RM in there. Also if we sign two keepers I'd imagine one of them to be one of the ones we're trialling - no hope of getting in the team but better than Forecast as a just in case/for the development team.

    Rodriguez
    Davis
    Clyne (tomorrow ;) )
    Maybe Buttner...

    Plus a GK and two CBs.

    Maybe a winger too

    If he's as good as everyone says then fair enough <ok>

    I bought him several years into my career mode with Saints , when i heard we were about to sign him, he was 72 overall and pace of about 95. Means nothing but just thought i'd share it .

    Championship team of the year...

    Davis

    Clyne - Tomkins - Davies - Harte

    Phillips - Whittingham - Noble - Lallana

    Lambert - Rodriguez

    Now if we get Davies who we've been linked with, and Phillips, then we've almost got a complete set. That's pretty impressive.

    Indeed. What a shambles FIFA's hiring tactics are.

    I think Wednesday will do very, very well. They have a terrific manager there, and are signing some pretty impressive names. They already had a solid squad there.

    Huddersfield are being pretty ambitious in the transfer market, they're trying to tie up a deal for Ross Mcormack which will be impressive, so I think they'll be in and around the top 6. Brighton will probably be there as well tbh.

    The team I expect to storm it would be Bolton. They've kept a nucleaus of a PL squad, I know it's easy to say as WHU did the same etc, but I also like Coyle - I think he's a good manager and I think Davies will flow with goals at that level.

    Boro won't struggle that much, prob similar season to this one. I think you'll see the likes of Bolton, Blackburn, Wolves and possibly Wednesday battling it out for the top 2. That's my early call anyway.
