This article in The Mag fanzine, raised an eyebrow for me. It had me thinking, where else would these players go?

How many of them are good enough for where this club deserves to be?

Here is my take on the players and where would they would be best suited if they left.

Tim Krul Borrussia Dortmund (Germany)

Rob Elliot Barnsley (England)

Davide Santon Fiorentina (Italy)

Mathieu Debuchy Marseilles (France)

Ryan Taylor Blackburn (England)

Paul Dummett Burnley (England)

Massaido Haidara Lyon (France)

Steven Taylor QPR (England)

Fabriccio Coloccini San Lorenzo (Argentina)

Mapou Yanga Mbiwa Bordeaux (France)

Mike Williamson Millwall (England)

Gabriel Obertan Toulouse (France)

Sylvain Marveaux Rennes (France)

Jonas Gutierrez Velez Sarsfield (Argentina)

Hatem Ben Arfa Internazionale (Italy)

Yohan Cabaye Roma (Italy)

Chieck Tiote Benfica (Portugal)

Dan Gosling Ipswich (England)

Moussa Sissoko CSKA Moscow (Russia)

Vurnon Anita Ajax (Netherlands)

Gael Bigirimana Blackpool (England)

Haris Vuckic Heerenveen (Netherlands)

Sammy Ameobi Boro (England)

Yohan Gouffran Sochaux (France)

Pappis Cisse Dynamo Kiev (Ukraine)

Loic Remy Zenit St Petersburg (Russia)

Shola Ameobi Birmingham City (England)

Adam Campbell Standard Liege (Belgium)

My decisions are just opinions formed on where I believe the player is in his career and also the player's potential and I have also taken into account the style of the League/Team and profile of the selected clubs. I'm aware others will/may share a different opinion but that is what the game is about.

 

Don't think Shola would consider anywhere lesser than Ajax.

 

I don't think Benfica would take Tiote. Ben Arfa would go to a French club, I think.

 

I think for a reasonable price such as €7m they would be interested.

I think only PSG or Monaco could tempt Hatem.
