We reach the championship, what kind of players do you think AP would be looking at during this years world cup.

 

I would like to think we could attract any of the Japan players and start a love in by getting some Japanese supporters in St Marys.

Do the Japanese girls float your boat then Pilch?

[Colinjb]

We would be doing what we are doing now. Attracting players from a higher league who have been proven at that level without being outright stars. Lower prem standard performers in the World Cup would be within our reach.

[farawaysaint]

A couple of lower prem standard players probably, building for the future and all that.

Why Japanese in particular?

Totally agree.

Ohhhh right!

well if they do - there's a Japaneses college in Winchester - so there loads of Japanese girls to be found there

 

its attached to the University in some way - it used to be called Shoei College or something like that - but I think its just part of the Uni now

 

I used to live just up the road from the halls of Residence in Chilbolton Avenue.

Not at all, I do recall Fulham getting Nakata and another who's name escapes me.

Anyway I remember how they brought an extra 1k to the gates.

[Durleyfos]

I would like to see us buy a big name player at the end of his career come to us and be a class above anything else in the CCC.

 

Similar to Paul Merson when he signed for the Skints, I mean the Skates.

Given the time frame - David Beckham?

Junichi Inamoto from Arsenal.

[Pilchards]

I thought Prosenicki was the big star for the skates at the time.

 

IMHO The last star we had was Ekelund.

[Give it to Ron]

It was the funniest game I have seen at SMS..Japan v Nigeria in the rain.

I have never seen so many Japanese cameras and flashes going off during a game.

I was sat right in amongst the Nigeria supporters who had no idea or care about seat numbers and had some comical songs.

In the row in front were a load of Japanes girls who screamed at a very high pitch everytime they got near the 20 yard line it was brilliant.

[Tokyo-Saint]

I take my Mrs to the odd game. Is that enough for you?

 

Anyway, the Japanese are only really interested in the big clubs in the prm league. Hardy any of them knew about Fulham even when they had Inamoto. Nakamura at Celtic on the other hand....

Don't stop there and please tell us more?

[CWD]

Just hope he doesnt go along the lines of signing an unknown african player just because he grabs a goal against Germany or something. Seems to happen every world cup with minimal success - Diouf and Diao to Liverpool for example.

 

Would love to get some experienced retiring players such as Paul Scholes or Nicky Butt

[oxfordshire_saint]

To be honest, I don't think going shopping at the World Cup is a good idea.

 

Pretty much all of the European sides contain players who probably wouldn't be interested in playing 2nd/3rd tier English football which leaves us with the other continents.

 

Although some clubs have had success with players from exotic nations, like some of the Hondurans Wigan have signed, it's more likely that they'll be another Kleberson, Djemba-Djemba or dare I say it, Delgado, waiting to happen.

 

I think the Pards tactic of looking at proven League 1/CCC players is the way forward.

[saintjay77]

Its great that we are signing players and building a strong team for this league but I have been wondering how many players we have will be good enough to stay in our team if we manage a couple of back to back promotions.

 

Would we have a brand new team and if so what players would we have or would it be much the same as now but with a few prem additions?

[mcjwills]

We will probably have to get Riquelme as our south coast rivals are sure he wants to move to the South Coast

I think he'll be looking at experienced and tough players, not kids.

The sad thing is too many of them play well for 3 games only and then are snapped up for mega bucks before they turn out ****e again!

 

I want a oriental style player to bring a different culture to the club.

 

One of the Korean Li's, Lee's or Chang's will do nicely.
