Now Birmingham have gone down, Roger Johnson will be a good replacement for Cahill imo.

 

Get him signed Owen

Know idea????

 

WTF

You're right, we're aiming too low, trying to get the best from the relegated teams. Arsenal will be letting a few go, how about Arshavin, Nasri & Djourou?

 

 

numpty

 

point went over your head then did it

 

for the retards like yourself, maybe, just maybe some of our players arnt as bad as our fans make out

 

wonder if birmingham fans would swap them players with some of our 'shit'?

 

maybe just maybe injuries and a small squad fucked us

 

spending millions on some of the shit suggested on here is not the answer.

 

any more wisecracks that miss the point?

Personally I'd rather us spend the summer looking for new players who would (i) bolster the squad and (ii) improve the starting XI.

 

IMO Johnson and Gardner would do that.

So you want to spend 10 - 15 million on bolstering the squad with Johnson and gardner?

you best give Coyle a ring and let him know then

I don?t know what they?d cost ? I?d expect around ?5m for Johnson & ?3m for Gardner.

 

Johnson yes.

 

As for Gardner ? he?s young, is a midfielder with energy, knows where the back of the net is (scored twice against us this season) and has 2+ years Premier League experience.

 

If S Davis is not going to come back the player he was - then yes, this retard considers him a realistic target for BWFC.

maybe old news but we have been linked with Mathias Jorgensen from Copenhagen

 

also apparently the fee for Sturridge being bounded about mid last season was 10m

3m for a midfielder that just score 10 goals?

 

plus he a bluenose, so be suprised if he left, even though they are relegated.

Id take Johnson, theyd want silly money though which i wouldnt pay.

 

Lad at reading, Mills i think, if they dont beat Swansea may be worth a punt

Gardner scores goals but doesn't have much of an all-round game. Birmingham will probably want to keep him, but if they sell him they'll want at least 6 million. I'd rather have Pratley on a free and see what he can do. He has more to his general play, even if he's not great.

 

Birmingham went down because they're not very good. Their defence was a well organised unit, but the individual players are not brilliant.

 

I'd take Martins though, as he was only on loan and we could use some pace. He's not top-drawer, but he'd score a few. Depends on his wages.

There is very little between all the bottom half sides.

We have been slightly more consistent than the relegated teams but they still have a few good players.

I would definitely take Johnson, Ridgewell or Gardner as they could all improve our squad.

If you think we should be aiming higher then fine but this is a realistic shout.

and im the one suggesting we get players out of our reach?

 

you think Brum will sell Johnson for the same amount they paid for him from the Championship and sell Gardner for less than they paid for him

 

aye, alreet then

 

one word

10 goals?

 

that's nowt

 

theres a free transfer avaialble at pompey who could do that and experts on here don't want him

The one who might be able to but never actually has at this level and isn't a midfielder?

10 goals?

Nugent?

 

I reckon he's coming whether we want him or not. I also think we'll get Bothroyd on a free too.

Nugent on a free would be a good signing for us.

Why all the complaints about "average".

 

How did we do in the league? Below average i think.

 

A couple of average players may just possibly be an improvement of what we have

 

oh - and thats probably all we could afford

I also think we'll get Bothroyd on a free too.

Oh my.

Carlos Cuellar would be a good shout, if Houllier staysd at Villa then there would be a chance as he has had a fall out with him.

Nugent and Bothroyd. I genuinely hope not. Coyle has called for the backing to get some younger players in, which would be preferable. After a career doing nothing, Bothroyd knocks in a few in the Championship and suddenly he's the second coming. Signing him would be a massive risk, as he's essentially Carlton Cole with less Premier League experience. He could do a job, or just be another slogger who doesn't score enough goals.

 

We don't play 4-5-1 any more; we need goal scorers.

Seen as we have the best part of fuck all strikers then IMO we will need a few free transfers as well as looking to buy 1 or 2.

 

Bothroyd has got 41 in 116 games (wiki) for Cardiff which is a pretty good record (I know it's the championship), but for me it's not much of a gamble to get a 28 year old striker that is in the best form of his life and just got an England call up for free.

 

Unless he wants ridiculous wages then I can't see a problem in us signing him tbh.

I can see both sides of the argument.

 

I'd take Nugent and/or Bothroyd as well as a decent signing: not instead of.

Nugent also got an England call in the Championship and was younger, look how well he did for Pompey. It really is a risk to sign him, given the signing fee and wages he's supposedly demanding now.

 

Of the two, I'd have Bothroyd; just for the physical game........but if we signed both that'd be us done signing strikers. We need more goals than a 4 of Davies, Klasnic, Nugent and Bothroyd would give us. We'd struggle to get 20 goals out of them in open play, if past form at this level is anything to go by.
