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 ??

Elmander and Riga are probably more likely to go than AOB, Shittu etc

 

thanks to the Rule on a certain ammount of the squad needing to be english from next season.

 

I know both Shittu and AOB represent other countries but they're both born in England.

 

 

whats the craic with this new rule?

 

where do we stand?

Its something like you can only name 25 Active squad members that are eligible for games, of which 10 have to be trained in England and 4 of those 10 have to have been trained at the club, so i reckon that Danny Ward will be a squad member for us next season....

You have to name a squad of 25 players, i think 8 have to be trained in england

Those 21 and under are exempt.

 

So with Cahill, Muamba, Knight, Taylor, AOB, JOB, McCann, Hunt, Vaz, Shittu, Robbo, Ricketts, Basham, Davis, Davies and Davies in the 1st team squad already we should be more than covered.

Hell, Frank, we aren't keeping all them, are we !!

Hopefully not but having that many in the squad means we can get rid of a few without worrying too much about the new rules

I like O'Hara a lot and think we'd have half a chance of getting him.

 

Sigurdsson at Reading caught the eye during the cup run, too.

 

 

Sigursson looks good and only 19/20 year old . Would be a coyle type of player , young with a touch of pace

 

I agree, suggested it myself a while back. He's 20, scores a few and takes penalties.

ricketts that can do a decent job all over the pitch?

 

aye, lets get shut cos teams with massive squads like us don't need a mr versatile

 

ricketts who has done a decent job at right back !!!! centre half !!!!!! midfield!! - (like at stoke )

Pienaar out, N'Zogbia in !

Or in midfield like erm Chelski.

 

He's kept more clean sheets at Centre half than Cahill has.

Looking at players from relegated teams and assesing what we need I would be interested in Altidore , Fletcher, I also like paterson.

Steve Finnan ?

Are Munich UTD & Bin Dippers actually chasing Mark Davies?

Doubt they have ever heard of him.

I never thought I would say this but I really like Michael Brown at Pompey he epitomises a very good proffesional I think he would be good to have around.

What would he add?

 

A 33yr old journeyman pro

 

At centre-mid?

 

No ta

and he's a twat

and he's a twat

 

Him and Jim Whitley (Jeff's dodgy brother) used to drink in the same pub as me

 

Thought he was alright to be honest

 

Don't want him at BWFC though

Sat next to him at a poker table a couple of years back.

 

Seemed a decent lad, certainly no big time Charlie as could have been expected.

 

Only thng against him his his age IMO and we have muamba and mccann so no thanks.

Don't forget we'll have Shaun Davis back hopefully fully fit for next season, not unsimilar to Micheal Brown IMO.

and he's a twat

 

Watched him for a bit during the pompey wiggin game, he's a snidey whingy fucker thats for sure.

Let's hope we don't have McCann next season!

His age goes against him but I would give him 1 year because not only can he do the ratting job in midfield I think Muamba could learn from him, and he would not be expensive and is a better option than Mcann.

For me OUT : Elmander/Riga/Vaz Te/Shittu/McCann/Ricketts(won't happen)/JLS/Wiess/Hunt

 

neutral on: Gardner/Cohen/Robinson/DaviesK/AOB

 

would like to keep: Cahill/Lee/Klasnic/Knight/Wiltshire/Taylor/Davis/Muamba/jussi(just)/Al Habsi/Steinson

 

realistic in's : Fletcher /Elliot from Burnley

 

Haim/O'Hara/Nugent Pompey

 

Sigursonn Reading plus any half decent left back

Decent call.

Which Davies are you neutral on ?

Where's Mark Davies ? Or SKD ?

Only neutral on Cohen ? Don't think he's even a Prem squad player myself. Prefer to keep Vaz Te one more season, but actually play him as regular impact sub (see if it works anyway).

Steinsson is on my neutral list after this season.

Not sure I'd want Elliot.

Anybody wanting rid of Ricketts wants their fucking head seeing to.
