Your realistical hopes for reinforcement.

Ijjy's percentages are here! Based on the rumors so far it looks like a striker and winger are likely. I don't know who as it seems like a crapshoot right now. Sigh.
 
Players I'd like to see, ALL under 22 years old;


Left sided centre back
Winger
Centre Forward
Back up for Baines

4 players in with;

Vaughan/Pienaar Gone........Bilyaletdinov/Yobo/Heitinga Going
Cahill/Distin/Arteta open to offers
 
Krancjar or Jarvis for left mid please. Whatever happened to the Standard Liege connection? Defour, Witsel, .
Has Rod Fanni moved from that French club yet, if not is he still busting for a move? Zigic might be worth a punt if he was cheap enough, someone that big to threaten Baines and Arteta crosses would be rather nice.

Realistically, there will be no enforcement without sale as we have nothing to spend
so at the moment we have about 4m, (2.5m pienaar + 1.5m(my guess at upfront fee) for vaughan)
so I hope the following occurs

Sell Yobo 4m
Sell Yak 4m
Sell Bilya 8m (to some russian team as his stock seems high there )
gives us total 20m

buy striker for 10m
buy winger like dutch lad we linked with for 5m
Spanish Full back on bosman we were linked with (cover Right and Left)

and invest other 5m on a couple of good kids that have high potential
or see if we can get Donovan for 5m
or leave it till Jan when quality players coming to end of contract may become available
for 5m (like pienaar situation)
 
Likely, in my eyes.

a striker
a CM
maybe a loan for Donovan again.

out - Yobo, Yak.
 

Hugo Rodallega
Demba Ba

Thomas Hitzelsperger

Scott Dann

Of course, this is on a tight budget; if Rodwell, Fellaini or Baines are to go than I expect us to shell at least £15m on a world class striker.
