Ozkeith2 Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 Berbatov? I don't like signing players from relegated teams 'cos they seem to have a habit of getting relagated again (eg: Quashie, Parker), but if we had to, how about: Jarvis, SWP, Junior Hoilet.

Ashby Saint Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 At least a partner for Jos. A right midfielder / right winger. Depth everywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 I've mentioned this before but as this is apparently the official HCDAJFU, Niko Kranjcar.

positivepete Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 Must say some the Coventry youngsters were pretty good today, may be a few for our development squad should they go pop.

The right back, centre half, (Cranie also played well today) and the striker that came on all had good games. What those Coventry youngsters showed me was that we need 6/7 new players for the Premier. Adkins has never had to deal with the pace and power of the Premier so it's going to be interesting how things turn out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 Their number 8? He was very very good Yes, out on the right. Seemed to always be getting into really good wide positions, perfect for a cut-inside and shot or a dangerous cross. I was impressed, we didn't seem to be able to track him at all.

Supersubpuckett Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 If we have got some decent money in the budget, I think we should go for a couple of experienced premier league midfielders. Throw in a few defenders also - the current lot would get ripped to shreds. I think lampard would be a good shout if chelsea try to off load him. There's no point in going for good champ/releg players as we already have that standard. but anyway, what a bloody marvellous debate to be able to have!!!

the saint in winchester Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 Haha, Lampard. What's he on a week? £100k? Not in our budget. We have the summer to decide acquisitions. Good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 We need to bring in 6 or 7 new players without a doubt - plus 4 or 5 loans. I would expect Gary Hooper and Jay Rodriguez to be on the shopping list along with players Like Scott Dann and Curtis Davies if Brum City don't make it up. We should also look at Matt Phillips and Tom Ince if Blackpool don't make it up either. I'd have Martin Cranie and Andrew Surman back as well. We should also look to get 4 or 5 young players in on loan from the premier league big boys - players with real potential like Josh McCreachan from Chelsea, John Guidetti from Man City, Riyo Miyachi from Arsenal and Jonjo Shelvey from Liverpool. I think we'll also see one or two players from the Dutch first division and the Italian Serie A join us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will sign 3 or 4 new additions like we did last year and the year before, but I expect the panic to ensue when we haven't bought a new team.

Saint137 Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 We don't need any players. Look at what Swansea & Norwich have achieved by giving the players wot go them promotion the chance. Our squad will be massively motivated to be playing in the top flight (only Kelvin has done so I think, assuming Connoly retires?). Let them DAJFU and strengthen in January if needed. They deserve it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doggface Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 We need prem players with speed, all depends on budget. Ohara would be great Moses or hoilett would be unbelievable but probably destined for greater things and out of our budget. 1 striker, rodelega or odemwinge. Cb Curtis Davies Gk- need a challenger for kelv We need 5-6 and a clear out with a few out on loan Barney Seaborne Reeves Martin need npc experience. Is de ridder good enough? Is hammond capable?

Lighthouse Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 Andriy Yarmolenko. He's basically the Ukrainian Adam Lallana, although proven at a higher level. Plays for Dynamo Kiev, wouldn't come cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Improve on a few key positions but keep faith in this team! This is very true but we do have big question marks on many players since we can not deal with pace or width and most of the Premiership teams play with both. At least 2 new defenders, 2 midfielders and 1 striker is needed but id start off getting the 2 defenders and sort out our right midfield. I believe Lee will be great for us in the premier so we might not need a striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Saints Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 We'll break the club transfer record without a doubt. I expect Hooper will come in and I reckon we'll go for the pick of the Championship players (Norwich style). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 Given choice of Hooper or JRod who would you have? Hooper - 23 in 45 games in Scotland JRod - 21 in 42 in NpC I'd probably go with JRod on the basis the Celtic are under the illusion that the SPL is good. As such they will probably demand ludicrous fees for their top players. Burnley will struggle to hold on to Rodriguez this summer, he will got to the Prem one way or another. He is also a year or 2 younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
