hakka Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Wishful thinking, but I'd like to see N'Zogbia (£10m?) and Smith (any £ is good!) moved on and with these coming in... Ebanks-Blake or Doyle Kyle Naughton Elano Jimmy Bullard Think these players could offer us a lot and they are realistic targets. Are we already in the championship? ffs Did everton say that when they signed Cahill? Did they fuckers. Or Jagielka? or Lescott? lol Im not saying dont sign anyone from the championship, Im saying those players with Zog gone would be a championship squad. Bullard and Elano both have premiership experience but man city and Fulham dont want them, both of whom are teams we should be competing with this season (not standing man citys new year spending spree). So buying players not good enough for them doesnt make sense to me. Elano has been good for man city, then again mido was for spurs, yes they can afford to replace him with a top drawer player, but until now they havent had the opportunity, and hes done f*** all to make them want to keep him. Disagree with everything you have said. Our side minus Zog is a championship one already then by your words. I believe we need depth to our squad and we need it NOW. We have some of our better players on long term injuries and only kids who are not good enough yet (if ever) to step in. Firstly, Fulham don't want rid of Bullard, they said he can go if they can't meet his wage demands. Elano has fallen out of favour with Hughes over personal issues (from what I can see) and he was a dangerous player for them last season. Plus Man City don't have to settle for keeping Elano as they have so much money they can buy whoever is willing to come for silly wages. Bit different from the angle of "they aren't good enough for them" that your trying to create. Mido hasn't been suggested, so again your picking a bad example and trying to pin it on a different set of players with different circumstances. Also, are you saying you'd prefer to keep what we got instead of adding Elano and Bullard to the mix? - Sorry but I don't see how our current midfield is better than not having Bullard & Elano in it to pick from. And please, suggest 4 players you think we can sign like I requested. If your going to criticise my choices at least have the balls to lay your cards on the table. I already did a long way back in this thread and i stick by it. Bullard has gone on record as saying he will take a cut in wages to stay at Fulham. Elano is not wanted by man city, theyve struggled for goals this season with Jo being slow to settle and still he hasnt featured. My point is to improve the squad, swapping zog for bullard or elano is not imo improving the squad, nor is signing untested players for a potential relegation battle. Im saying id rather keep zog than bring in two lesser players. If your aware that Bullard has said he is willing to take a pay cut to stay now, why were you making out that the he wasn't good enough for Fulham and they wanted rid? You have suggested we get.. "Pennant Sol Cambell Crouch Micah Richards Risse" Do you really think that Riise will leave a Champions League side to join a relegation battle? do you also believe that Man City would give up one of their brightest defensive prospects in Micah Richards? Crouch would cost us £12m to £15m and do we really need Sol Campbell? he is 34 now, would rather have Bassong and Coloccini ahead of him. Your suggested transfers would cost around £40m to £50m if we could even get them as I can't see Crouch or Richards being cheap. And why do you love Zog so much? yes he is fast, but how many assists and goals is he picking up? - not much. He is a sulky person who has already gone on record saying he wants out, yet you want to keep him? are you stupid? if bullard has offered to take a pay cut to stay at Fulham and they still havent offered him a contract what does that tell you? Campbell would be cover for bassong and colo not a replacement, and certainly better cover than taylor, who i said we should offload for the right price. Risse is warming the bench and I reckon he would do a loan to NUFC to gie himself a chance of a premiership return with another club come the end of the season. Same with pennant. So that leaves crouch and micah richards both who would cost us cash agreed, but i said sell the likes of taylor, and zog(If he doesnt want to be at NUFC he can fuck off, but not to weaken our chances of survival) , and free up the wage bill by getting rid of viduka and co. plus some cash from ashley and i think its a possibility. And that squad would be far better than the shite you suggested. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/f/fulham/7808769.stm Have a look at the quotes, Fulham have gone on record saying they don't want him to go unless price is right. Hardly forcing him out the door as he isn't good enough like you were making out. Can't see Campbell coming to warm our bench and nor do we need another centre back over getting better cover for full backs. Can't see Riise giving up the chance to fight for a place in the Roma side to join a relegation battle at Newcastle. Pennant may be a good shout, but that position isn't a priority in my eyes. Crouch will be out of our budget range and Micah Richards coming here is again out of our budget and fantasy stuff. Admittedly I'd like Crouch and Richards here, but it's just not realistic is it. Obviously we disagree, so I see no need for us to continue discussing this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest north shields lad Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Id rather have Boyd to be honest, Ferguson was awful at Blackburn, only scored from the penalty spot, and Barton is a better player when and if fit. Lets face facts were not going to sign anyone that will actually improve the team are we. Id rather we try and get another youngster on loan from one of the top 4 teams.
