Reet, Building For Next Season.

Silly season has started early already. Plenty of daft rumors, Spurs signing EVERY player under the age of 21, then end up on loan at Palace / Watford / Boro.

 

City signing David Villa, Ribery and any player they want....and probably getting a new manager.

 

United taking Rodwell, and throwing some more rejects at us.

 

 

Within a few months, you will get some know it all Journo saying who will improve every team, and seems to know where every manager fail !!

 

 

Who will Bolton be signing ??

Who do you want to sign ??

Who will you sell ??

What should I do about my bleeding ?ss ??

Will Cahill stay ??

  • I don't like Ferdinand and hope he will end up down south somewhere.

    If you think Robinson's a good left back you need your eyes testing pal.

  • robinsons weakness is a lack of pace   his experience, will to win and organising makre him a perfectly adequate full back   the left is definitely stronger than the right

I'd wait until we know what division we'll be playing in.

Nobody of any note.

 

Who do you want to sign ??

 

A decent striker and a couple of full backs

 

Who will you sell ??

 

Elmander has had his chances. Doubt we'll get even half of what we paid for him though!

 

What should I do about my bleeding ?ss ??

 

I've heard it needs a red hot poker up it. This may cauterize the wound.

 

Will Cahill stay ??

 

Depends who's offering the cash. If it's city, they'll pay stupid money, anyone else won't match our valuation.

I reckon Nugent could make his way here

I can't think of anybody I "want" us to sign, who would actually come here

Elmander could be flogged, even though it would mean a huge loss, but let's free up his wage and get somebody else in

Superglue it shut

If we're offered anywhere near ?10M, then get rid of Cahill, although I'm not sure who would be interested at that price to be honest

You don't rate him that highly then ?

 

From my point of view, looks like you will need some creativity going forward, Wilshire will go back to Arsenal, so unless you get him on another years loan, that could cost you some money.

 

A decent striker to play with Davies and Klasnic, you need more than 2 strikers, Elmander could bring anything upto ?5 million, he has a good reputation in France.

Who will Bolton be signing ??

 

3 or 4 youngsters under 22. Probably a Scot or two.

 

Hopefully a midfield playmaker with a bit of experience.

 

Perhaps that Adam from Blackpool.

there is more chance of elmander starting next season than klasnic.

No doubt I'll get slated for it, but I think he's a good player, but not great. I don't think he's as good as some people seem to think, and I don't see why some people think he should be going to the World Cup. I guess we'll see how "good" he is by seeing how big the offers for him are in the closed season.

id be happy if everyone thinks he's shit, he doesnt go to world cup and nobody puts an offer in.

I always look at the Clubs getting relegated, can be the odd bargain to be pied up.

 

You are bound to get a Burnley player.

, Elmander could bring anything upto ?5 million, he has a good reputation in France.

 

Do you think maybe all the french, who think so highly of him, have currently got their eyes shut and fingers in their ears so they don't really know he isn't cutting it here.

Don't get me wrong, I certainly don't think he's shit, I just don't see which of the top 4/5 sides he would fit into at present. I've spoken to some people who claim he should already have 5 or 6 caps for England, and who claim he is already better than Ferdinand, which I don't see yet. He has potential, I hope he realises that with us

i think you find people who know football, would still pay a fair amount of cash for elmander..

We are not a top 5 Club at the moment, bt a fully fit team, and Cahill would be on our bench. Would still love him at ours though.

He is still playing well Internationally. The French DO have good memories, and will pay to bring a flop back.

We will end up signing a couple of Burnley players

Tyrone Mears and Eagles, and maybe Nugent from Pompey. I dont rate Mears but i would have Eagles and Nugent at the Wanderers...

No, No and NO thanks :nea:

In a fully fit team Pablo who would be your 2 centre backs, Jagielka and...? (That wasn't me saying that Cahill would be the other, just a genuine question as I don't know who you would play).

 

As for the questions, I recon Nugent will be here, but I think we will need another striker as I honestly recon Davies will go and would be suprised if Klasnic stayed. If you asked me which of our 3 strikers I definitely think will be here next season it would be Elmander.

 

Also think we need to get rid of many of our full backs (all apart from Ricketts as he can cover the whole back 4) and get 2 of first team standard.

 

Apart from that the team doesn't look too bad,

I am happy with Cahill and a much improved Knight at centre back (although a young talent from the lower leagues would be a prefered cover than AOB or Shittu),

The midfield looks strong, Holden and Davis to come back, M. Davies ever improving with experience and I would keep Cohen as he is an adequate stand in, KEEPING MUAMBA IS A MUST (more important than Cahill IMO). Get rid of McCann and JOB.

That just leaves wingers, Lee will just get better and better so the right is fine, but I would look to get a left winger even if we do get Wilshere again. I would also let Taylor go and keep Gardner as cover for either wing (NOT THE CENTRE MIDFIELD).

Tyrone Mears and Eagles, and maybe Nugent from Pompey. I dont rate Mears but i would have Eagles and Nugent at the Wanderers...

 

 

not one of them is any better than what we have already.

not one of them is any better than what we have already.

 

Well that Mears is a poor player, but i wouldnt mind having Nugent. As for Eagles, we have LCY so we dont need him really..

In bound -

 

strikers - Klasnic (if he will come) + either Dindane or Carlton Cole (if WHU get relegated)

 

Midfield - Holden + either O Hara or Bullard (if hull go down, injury prone but excellent if you get 25-30 games out of him)

 

Left Wing - Hunt (if hull go down)

 

Defenders - ??? cheap bargains a la Tel Ben Haim ?100k

 

 

 

Out Bound-

 

Elmander (only 12 months left on contract get whatever we can back for him)

Taylor (had a bad attitude this season for me, always seems to be bitching on the bitch)

Hunt (?25k+ / week saved)

McCann (?32k+/week saved)

Shittu (shittu = shit house)

Vaz Te

JOB

Fully fit squad, Jagielka and Heitinga. They have not had a chance to play together yet, with Fellaini being injured. Reaaly good player Johny H, I would go as far to say, he is better than Lescott. BUT our other 3 Centre backs....jesus, Cahill is better than all 3 put together.

 

With all them players you shipping out, you will be left with about 14 players !!!

Out Bound-

 

Hunt (?25k+ / week saved)

McCann (?32k+/week saved)

 

Are them two really costing us nearly ?3M per season in wages? - I can't see that being right

McCann is definatly on ?32k/week, not 100% on N Hunt but believed to be mid 20's.
