froggg Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I was being serious? if you don't go up then surely the pair will leave (Or want to leave) we could lure them away with Premier League footy and higher wages, would be something I'd consider. Did I miss summart, have you been promoted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyram Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Hopefully we take Hughes from you. Apart from him and maybe Bryson? can't see anyone else from you lot getting in our side. This made me laugh. This and the idea that any of our squad would even want to play for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramsbottom Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Albrighton and Guidetti available on frees. Get a couple of decent loans like Kane and Chalobah. Couple of the Dundee United young stars. Then a sprinkling of £2m players from relegated teams. Mutch, Bardsley I'd take Albrighton, hard to see why he doesn't get much of a look in at Villa. Whenever he's played lately he's produced... Guidetti will no doubt want big wages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North_Stand_Ram Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Does this Burnley fella love us? He's on here everyday! For me I'd pick the best from the championship and the relegated clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuespachRam Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 We should throw a couple of million and get Ings, he would love to play for a big club....and we need a reserve striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randombc Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I'd be more tempted to go after players that have been relegated from premiership teams then get players who are good in the championship with the hope they can make the step up into the premiership e.g. I'd rather sign Adam Johnson then Jordan Rhodes, and both would probably cost £8 million, but you've got the assurances that you know Adam Johnson is capable of playing to a good standard. If you look at the teams most likely to get relegated you've got: Sunderland Cardiff Norwich I'd be looking at (whether you could get them or not is a different matter) Sunderland: O'Shea, Larsson, Johnson, Giaccherini and Fletcher Cardiff: Caulker, Mutch Norwich: None -------------------------------------------Grant------------------------------------- --------Wisdom--------Keogh----------------Caulker--------------Forsyth------ ----------------------------Bryson----------------Hughes--------------------------- -------Larsson-----------------------------------------------------Johnson--------- ----------------------------Martin---------------Fletcher----------------------------- Obviously thats without looking abroad and pulling players from the teams that will finish in the bottom 3, and hoping we can sign Wisdom and keeping Hughes (which shouldn't be too difficult if we get promoted).

Srg Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Why would you change formation? Makes literally no sense. p.s. that lightweight midfield would help us just about get 10 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fletcher would be a good signing to compete with Martin but there's no way we'd switch to 4-4-2. I'd like (preferably) Johnson, Giaccherini or Larsson as well to really improve what we have on the wing. Hopefully Fulham go down, they've got decent CDMs in Parker and Sidwell, we really do need to strengthen in that area (ideally we'd get Thorne back on loan with view to a permanent as well).

Shuff264 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 If we go up... The possibilities are endless. Chelsea have got some fantastic youngsters that could do with a loan deal - I'm talking far better than Bamford here. Some cracking players in La Liga like I have mentioned a few times - especially of Real Valladolid, Almeria or Real Betis go down. Money is tight over there, we could grab a few stars.. Players like Suso, Alvaro Vadillo, Omar Ramos would be very good. Obviously you need to find the right balance, but we'd be daft not to explore outside of the UK. Afterall, Norwich over the past two years or so have picked up literally all the better players from the Championship (well Leeds Utd) and it hasn't worked. Cardiff City are an example of what not to do either... Splashing big money on only two or three players who have turned out to be abit rubbish... Gary Medel isn't bad, but for 13m euros that's not wise.. In Caulker, Medel and Cornelius they spent more than 25m... Whereas Swansea spent less than half of that and bought far better players. Thats a lot of money for those three, Caulker the only one there with any real talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 There's some good players in Scotland and other non-leagues Wasn't Coleman from Ireland? Under 100 k. That's where I would be heading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Ram Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 If you look at the teams most likely to get relegated you've got: Sunderland Cardiff Norwich I'd be realistically looking at Sunderland: O'Shea, Larsson, Johnson, Giaccherini and Fletcher Wickham, Gardner, Ki, Colback, Cardiff: Caulker, Mutch, Noone, Brayford Norwich: None Hoolahan, Redmond, Snodgrass, Bassong, Olsson, Scrap that, it was a pretty god awful defence and formation. DEFENCE: CB: Bring back Wisdom to play at CB, his preferred position. He's an excellent mobile defender, which means we could bring in an older more experienced CB to marshal the team because Wisdom's athleticism would cover for him. I'd have Keogh and Bucko as cover. Full backs: Forsyth will be a good squad player and should get his chance, but ideally we'd bring in a LB for competition with him (Olsson from Norwich is a possibility). At RB we need to bring in two of them. I'd bring in Brayford and someone else, probably from abroad. Formation: 1. Stick with a 4-3-3, picking out a quality CDM (keep an eye on Jack Cork's situation) and playing Hughes and Bryson ahead of him. Russell and Dawkins stay on (Wardy leaving), buying two new wingers (Redmond and Noone would be my choices, but etc.) and a ST for competition with Martin (as much as I think he'll make the step up, we always need a back-up plan) 2. Go to a 4-2-3-1, put Hughes and that new CDM I was talking about at holding midfield. The best part about this is the attacking 3 can change a lot. We'd have Bryson through the middle, but we could have any of Hoolahan, Russell, Dawkins, Noone, Redmond, Snodgrass, Mutch etc. But ideally we'd look abroad a lot too, Alberto Bueno would be an amazing player to bring back. Obviously thats without looking abroad and pulling players from the teams that will finish in the bottom 3, and hoping we can Loan Wisdom and keeping Hughes (which shouldn't be too difficult if we get promoted).
