Minhosa Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 15 million quid to spend. Maximum of 5 players. Woodgate 7 mill Baines - 5 mill Sidwell - Free Distin - Free Viduka - Free Given Solano Taylor Woodgate Baines Milner Butt Sidwell Duff Martins Owen Harper Distin Parker Emre Viduka Get rid of some of the shite too.l All good buys. Would play Emre instead of Butt and get Sidwell to hold, using your buys. Would imagine Baines might cost a little more than £5m as Wigan are not after the money and would be in no position to sell, assuming Wigan stay up. I would imagine Jewell would be a cock about it. There is something a bit embarrassing about trying to re-sign both Distin and Woodgate imo like. Having had them both at the club before and letting them go. I can't imagine many decent clubs letting good players go and then re-signing them a couple of years later. Same with Nobby. Thats my main concern with Gooch. I reckon we'd let him go back to Belgium and he'd return, with another club, and be an absolute player. Anyway, probs for another thread. For sure, all of your suggested buys would improve the side. Wage bill wise we'd need to sell either a couple of big earners and loads of the shite to accomodate all those freebies though, cos they'll all be after big dollar.

Minhosa Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Forgot to say I'd like more cover for full backs too. I reckon we need to sign three full backs this window. A very strong left back, a good number two right back and a young, up-coming left back to deputise for Baines or someone. In terms of sales, Carr, Baba, Parker, Moore and Bramble (release) would make up my main ones. Nobody would pay them what we are though, hence they'll be a bastard to shift.

Cajun Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Quality centre back - 7 mill Baines - 5 mill Sidwell - Free Distin - Free Viduka - Free Just couldn't bring myself to sign Woodgate again, when we had him I thought he was never going to get over his injuries and was amazed/shocked and relieved when Real came in and bought him. He has had a very good season injury wise but I wouldn't be so confident as to spend £7m on him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phil K Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Get rid of some of the s**** too.l Who the hell would have most of them ? I mean - Ramage, FFS..... I still think a really GOOD manager could possibly make something of Bramble, who has everything but a brain between his ears, seems like, sometimes.

Rons Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 What about Marcell Jansen who is the left full back of Gladbach. He is a german international in an age of 21! I don't think he will cost that much and his present club is going down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Sidwell - Free Baines - £5mil Luke Young (maybe, havent seen him in a while - any quality RB)- £3mil a good CB, possibly a kid - £5mil young striker for the future - £2mil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Yours was virtually bang on mine tbh, NSG. However... i'd love Woodgate but he won't come back. Anyhow, it's crazy to think - that with the standard of freebies that are available this close season, we could spend nowt and still have the squad of a Top 4 team. Of course though, frees such as Tuncay and the likes will have more realistic suitors than the likes of us. But either way, i pray that Roeder has a sniff around the Bosman section this summer. Sylvain Distin - Free Luisao - £7m Leighton Baines - £7m Steve Sidwell - Free Mark Viduka - Free Fully Fit Starting XI: Given Solano --- Luisao --- Taylor --- Baines Milner --- Emre --- Sidwell --- N'Zogbia Martins --- Owen Subs: Harper, Distin, Parker, Duff, Viduka And... We need a new RB. Anyone who thinks we can survive with Solano there for a full season next year is stupid beyond belief. I'd be content with Taylor and Carr as back-up to be totally honest. We're not in desperate need of a right-back at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JamesD Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 We need a new RB. Anyone who thinks we can survive with Solano there for a full season next year is stupid beyond belief. agree to some extent. He's played well for us this season, but if a proper quality RB were available, then he;d be a definite purchase. Solano is good getting forward, but defensively isn't sound enough to be our full time RB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Legithon Baines 7 mil -> duh Wes Brown 6~7 mil -> double duh Steve Sidwell Free -> triple Tal Ben Haim Free -> quadruple Lee Young-Pyo 1~2 mil -> sold attacking fullback who can cover for both sides and can also play midfield in a pinch. If he has any sense he probably hates Jol's guts by now so I figure we have a go for cheap. Get rid of.. Babayaro Bramble Carr Luque anything beyond that is probably a luxury may lose emre and zog though. <XI> Given Solano Brown Ben Haim Baines Milner Parker Sidwell Duff Owen Martins (Subs) Lee Ameobi Harper Emre Zog Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ticaL Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 buy a whole new back four - Taiwo, Diogo, Distin and Ben Haim, spend the rest on an exciting youngster like Barnes Taiwo is quality. Definately needs to slap Celestine out of our squad. Anyways, at this point in time, proven premiership players may be imperative to a sucessful season next year. So, I wouldn't, even though I find him decent, be spending shit loads of cash on people like Luisao. Thing is, I could see Roeder getting shit loads of random foreigners from places like Kaiserlauten. And yes, I'm aware of the contradictory statement when I've posited Taiwo as a possible signing. But did I really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
