Twitter suggesting Hulk is off to Zenit for 40 Million as well

Big ask starting a ten man team

Great post all the way! Thanks mate. Appreciate having someone agree with my viewpoint

If only we had sold Ba and signed a similar player to Ben Arfa on the left.

Complete shite

If there is a single positive, it would be that this result will hopefully lower some of the fans expectations a bit.

I was really hoping the ins and outs in the last transfer window would be finding that extra one or two players to fit a 4-3-3 system.

This is like Paul Robinson whilst he was Tottenham's numero uno goalkeeper

This. It's 2012. Wouldn't be that surprising if players whose contracts were to expire at the end of the season were targets in January to be fair

I imagine the Bosman list is where we will be doing most of our scouting/ transfer business this season. Though I would go through the Transfermarkt pages to find players under 26 that would fit the criteria for players we would sign. Some great players in here, though obviously a few are out of our league. England Theo Walcott - 23 - Arsenal - RW Daniel Sturridge - 23 - Chelsea - ST Mark Noble - 25 - West Ham - DCM Franco Di Santo - 23 - Wigan - ST James Morrison - 26 - WBA - CM Germany Lewis Holtby - 21 - Schalke - OCM Koo - Ja Cheol - 23 - Augsberg - OCM Kuzmanovic - 24 - Stuttgart - OCM Rausch - 24 - Hannover - LM Bruma - 20 - Hamberg - CB Kirschoff - 21 - Mainz - CB France Sissoko - 23 - Toulouse - CM Yanga-Mbiwa - 23 - Montpellier - CB Boudebouz - 22 - Sochaux - RW Gouffran - 26 - Bordeaux - ST Ayew - 20 - Marseille - LW Spain Tello - 21 - Barcelona - LW Forlin - 24 - Espanyol - CB Alvaro - 21 - Espanyol - ST Argentina Lanzini - 19 - River plate - ACM Netherlands Douglas - 24 - Twente - CB Sulejmani - 23 - Ajax - RW Rosales - 23 - Twente - RB Marcelo - 25 - PSV - CB Russia Honda - 26 - CSKA - OCM Bochetti - 25 - Kazan - CB Necid - 23 - CSKA - ST Shennikov - 22 - CSKA - LB Norway Kara - 22 - Tromso - CM Turkey Koybasi - 23 - Besiktas - LB Ukraine Yarmolenko - 22 - Dinamo Kyiv - L/R W

Sebastian Boesnich is still a free agent...

Looks a great side.........if you’re the Atromitos coach. Hope we don't go with that, need a few more experienced lads in the side for the home leg to ensure qualification with no hiccups. Ye of little faith!

At this stage= Missed opportunity. C-

4-4-2 is fine...when you have wingers like Lennon and Bale. We have simply signed too many players that don't fit into a 4-4-2 to continue playing it

Toulalan would be fantastic, but can't see it happening because of the current strategy and policies and procedures in place

No, he is waaaaay too good looking

let's nab Tremoulinas while we are at Bordeaux.

3/4 you mentioned are left footed, the other was Obertan

Sakho would be mind blowing

If he was an attacking player, then for sure you would want him standing out. CB is a bit different in that respect, in that flying completely under the radar is often the sign of a good CB because they are doing their job with little fuss/mistakes. The A-league has had a horrible record of players being exported to Europe - not any you would class as a success just yet, though having two young players on the books of Dortmund isn't too bad I'll grant you that most of the Aussies on here give completely wacko over-the-top descriptions of Australian footballers on here. I refuse to be put in that category and my post record will attest to that. It will be interesting to see what kind of player he will develop into.

Baby Cheick? or Baby Tiote?
