Saint Charlie Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 I think a lot of people need to remember how strong the Prem is. Someone said if we had these four strikers it would be great: Lambert, Sharp, Lee, Rhodes. Really? Rhodes has shone in L1 but we need to add some real quality and shouldn't be signing players we think would be good in the Championship, but players that will have an impact on the Prem. 14 of the 38 games are against Man Utd, Man City, Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle. We have fought to get up and need to give ourselves the best chance to stay. If we get players from the Championship or below they need to be the very best players in the league. We need to bring in players who are better than our current best players.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeShmoe Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 What we really need is pace. Both up front and at the back. We do pass it about but we'll be battered in the prem if we dont have decent pace at both ends of the pitch I like some of the suggestions on here like O'Hara, Guthrie, Clyne, Dann, Jarvis, Fletcher, Whittingham etc and we should raid West Ham if they mess up. Blackburn have some decent players too if they go down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garrett Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 Cannot see WHU letting many players go unless they have to for financial reasons. They'll do everything possible to keep Noble/Vaz Te/Tomkins/Cole...and the rest I'd say aren't that great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ottery st mary Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 (edited) West Ham are deep in the mire.. Promotion needs to happen for them and a free stadium to sell off their ground for big income... It will be very interesting to see the fall out if they miss out on the play offs.. and don'T get the freebie of the the Olympic stadium.. Who thinks Gold , Sullivan and Brady will be putting their hand in their own pockets:rolleyes: Edited 1 May, 2012 by ottery st mary spellin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who thinks Gold , Sullivan and Brady will be putting their hand in their own pockets:rolleyes: Er, hang on. Is that stadium actually free? One of the sticking points was that West Ham were going to get a 40M loan off the local council to help cover the stadium bid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glasgow_Saint Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 He's been poor. Does this not also make people think twice about Rhodes? Haven't seen enough of him to judge, but going purely on goal records isn't enough. I don't know why people throw in examples like this. CMS fails, Lambert succeeds, Pilkington succeeds, Doyle fails, plenty inbetween like Long. You can find countless examples of succeeding and failing. It has absolutely zero bearing on whether Rhodes will succeed. It's all down to his ability and mentality. Rhodes is far more of a team player, has more composure and workrate than CMS and doesn't just look to shoot every 5 minutes. I'm sure he'll be a success, but if he isn't, it won't have anything to do with CMS or any other player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 Leicester have made a bid for Robert Koren according to Sky Sports. Leicester will go up next year - 100% Pearson was always going to try and cherry pick the best players from his former club. I mean, look at the way Adkins raided S****horpe for Jonno Forte. Happens all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 Snodgrass and Jarvis would be brilliant. Would give us plenty of wide midfield options and competition, take the pressure off Lallana. Both young with plenty to prove, good team players, hard working and with some decent ability. Both seem likely to leave, just depends on price and competition I guess. Would also give us the option to play Lallana off the front man for away games.

richardc Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 I was watching the City vs Utd game last night and they kept mentioning that Utd made one mistake at the back and got punished - the amount of chances that we have given the opposition recently will mean that we could be in for a right few spankings next season unless we either improve at the back or change the personnel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint86 Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 FFS people, if I hear any more of this negative ********, about the squad making the wrong transfers, buying the wrong players, not getting cover, selling so and so when we don't want them to etc etc then I think we will collectively shoot you. Everything will be done properly and done well, we have Nicola and Nigel at the helm... SO STFU with any negative ******** and enjoy the summer!

23rdSaint Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 Kasper Schmeichel Nathaniel Clyne Matt Phillips Jay Rodriguez and/or Gary Hooper Matt Jarvis CB Then 1 or 2 Sigurdsson like signings from the foreign leagues. GK - Schmeichel, Davis, Bialkowski LB - Fox, NEW, Harding, Shaw? CB - Hooiveld, NEW, Fonte, Martin RB - Clyne, Richardson, Butterfield RM - Phillips, Guly, De Ridder, Chaplow CM - Cork, Schneiderlin, NEW, Hammond LM - Lallana, Jarvis, Puncheon ST - Lambert, Hooper, Rodriguez, Lee, Sharp Out - Barnard, Jaidi, Forte, Connolly, Dickson, Holmes, Seaborne, Forecast I'd go with that.

Chez Posted 1 May, 2012 Share Posted 1 May, 2012 Would love Lansbury, hilariously mis managed by BFS this season. Can play centre and wide right...not sure what the fuss is about him. He couldn't get in the Norwich side in their run in, looked poor for West Ham this season and when I saw him in the England U21s at SMS he was rubbish. We'll need better to survive next season.
