Who do you want us to sign this summer?

haven't had chance to read the whole 10 pages.

I'd love to sign Honda having a proper playmaker would be sweet instead of lumping it to fellaini the false #10, negredo after that as always need a goalscorer.

Yes mate.

Wilfred Bony - smashing them in for Vitesse all over the show currently. Highly rated and we nearly had him on loan in January, but Moyes changed his mind. He could be Drogba, he could be Bakayoko.

Leroy Fer - Apparently we nearly signed him. But he had a dodgy medical, but then sure every game for Twente you could imagine. Box to box midfielder with an alarmingly small head.

Alvaro Negredo - press claims we bid for him on 30th Jan this year. Sounds made up. But this guy is awesome. Not many Spanish strikers I'd take to do well in the English game but this guy would suit us. Currently 4th top scorer in Spain for Sevilla and if we get him jizz will explode from my winky woo.

Keisuke Honda - Vastly over rated Japanese playmaker who must be on some heavy money that we can't afford. Why else would he still be playing for CSKA? I've not seen tons of him but from what I have I can't understand why people are arsed about him. However, having the best Japanese player would give is marketing opportunities over there.

Kevin Gameiro - when I have seen him for PSG he's been quick and knows where the net is. But that's the problem. He's hardly played for them recently as they have boss forwards now and this guy doesn't come close anymore. He's defo gonna leave in the summer. Probably not to us.

Joleon Lescott - never heard of him.

Other; I would like us to get a new keeper in the form of Kasper Schmeichel.

Hope that help Bry.

Where did you hear that about Bony nearly coming om loan?
 

If we sell Fellaini, Heitinga, Hitzlsperger, Mucha, Neville and Gueye for 30M in total + Moyes will get 10M from new TV deal, then we have 40M to spend on new players. I would do this:

----------- PLAYERS IN -----------
Guillermo Ochoa - 3M (3M contract sign bonus for player and his agent)
Leroy Fer - 8M
Nacer Chadli - 6M
Keisuke Honda - 7M (5M contract sign bonus for player and his agent and then 2M to CSKA to buy him already in this summer)
Fernando Amorebieta - 3M (3M contract sign bonus for player and his agent)
Alvaro Negredo - 13M
TOTAL - 40M

----------- FIRST TEAM -----------
-------------- Ochoa -------------
Coleman Jagielka Amorebieta Baines
---------- Fer ----- Osman -------
Mirallas ------ Honda ----- Pienaar
------------- Negredo ------------

---------- SECOND TEAM --------
------------- Howard ------------
-- Hibbert Stones Distin Oviedo ----
------- Gibson ----- Barkley ------
Anichebe ---- Naismith ----- Chadli
------------- Jelavic -------------

And wages shouldn't be big problem either, we would be something like plus 60k per week, that is something like 3M per season and that shouldn't be a big jump considering a way bigger jump in TV money from Sky.

Everton would be boss. So this will clearly never happen.

Kudos - how long have you been working on that ? in any case good work mate.

Had to count there, looked more than 11 in each team. Given his recent showings I'd keep Mucha, unless someone offers 5m for him. Also not too sure about Ossie's position in the first team, I'd put him in the 2nd. team where you have Naismith.

Oh ... you want to keep Naismith ?
 
Charlie Austin - Holt, Lambert, Le Fondre are lower league players who haveshown they can score goals at the highest level and Austin has outscored all of them.

Well, sometimes when I can't sleep I am thinking about these things sometimes.. Dreams in another sense.. :)

I don't think Mucha will want to stay with us, I think he will want to start playing every week once again. And I don't want him to stay either, unless he would accept to be a 3rd choice, but I can see Moyes will want to keep him as our backup for Howard.. Ossie and Gibbo could rotate week in and week out, the main problem for our current team IMO is that we have almost totally no choice than play them every week, as our bench is really poor, and then they have to play really tired sometimes for sure.

I would keep Naismith, he had a really bad injury only a year and a half ago. He will get better for sure and I want to see that Naisy - Jelly cooperation from Rangers in our attack as well, at least for once, so I hope Moyes will give him some chances in centre of the field, he isn't a winger for PL. He needs badly a hard-working summer and get himself back to form.

Steven,

you should try melatonin .. as opposed to melontan. One will give you a good night's rest whilst the other will give you a cracking tan .. and a possibly raging hard-on.
 
We dont need many first team players . A playmaker and engine for centre mid would be fine . Like honda and fer . These would replace fellaini and osman . We then sell heitinga a replace him . If we could ship gueye of then buy a striker let vellios go on loan . If we got 30 million for felli johnny and gueye then 6 m on honda 8 million on fer a 8 million striker thats leaves 8 million to buy squad players . We then use the tv money to pay the debt off
 
Adam Lallana -> Long term replacement for Leon Osman for me.
Dries Mertens -> Belgian, what more do you need to know.
Leroy Fer or someone similar -> Need a box to box midfielder to replace Osman.. NOW.
Wilfried Bony/Benteke -> Brute strength but finishers.
