Do you need a gentle nudge or a full blown slap to wake you from your dreams? <laugh>

Full on slap will do! :laugh:

but on topic to be honest, i'm not sure who i'd like to see come in.

i'd imagine the backbone of our team will be

jos
fonte
lallana
morgan
lambert
and i think sharp could cut it in the prem
 
Although Cortese spent relatively big in the lower divisions, I think he will be a careful man, balancing needs against the desire to keep club shipshape. Can't see us getting any big names...a few good players and a couple of unknowns. It may make us all twitchy but he has a vision of a well run club, unlike many in the PL or recently relegated from the PL.
 
Oh great used to like Blackburn but now i want them to go down so we can try and get Hoilett be a bargain for free
 
Never get Hoilett. Spurs wanted him last time around, and Arsenal could take him too, for their EU stockpile/mountain of tricky players.
 
Flamini from Milan, ex Arsenal would be a good signing and someone who would fit in with the way we play. He would also add a bit of bite to the midfield, perfect partner for Morgan. Would imagine wages may be a stumbling block but at 28 he should be in his prime.

And it says Clyne is out of contract from Palace, is that right?
 
Quick look off that list and I would like Ben Foster and Pogrebenyak (think thats right). Cant see it happening though.
 
Flamini? Hoilett? Diame?

There is no way we are getting any of them unless we offer them a serious amount of money
 
It's not just the purchase price..we have a wages policy. No one will be brought in earning massively more than our top earners (Lallana, Lambert). Rumoured we offered Hooper £38 k/pw when in the PL...so that gives some idea of the wages we intend to pay.
 
Think there are a fair few on that list whos contract aren't expiring as well. Seems to have included loan contracts as expiring contracts

Lambert and Lallana must have pretty tasty promotion packages in their contracts. Those 2 are rightly the top earners and I can't see that changing int the summer.
