nfb Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Possible Side for next season on £1m transfer money We talk about Ayala coming back I would like to see Addison have a good summer preseason getting ready to play centre half with Barker. We would then have Barker Addison Anderson and Buxton (back up) and for me this would surely be one of the strongest centre half group in the championship. Then there is St Ledger on a free. Billy Jones on the left or Delaney from Ipswich on frees with Brayford on the right and Fielding in goal. We talk about build from the back and this would give us a solid base for a total cost of £500k for Fielding as St Ledger, Jones, Delaney are all free and the centre halves are here. We off set the cost of Fielding with the sale of Bywater. Midfield David Jones back in the middle with Bailey yet another free. Steven Davies on the left wing which is for me his best position, Right wing is Cywka forging partnership with Brayford as in the good run. That is the midfield for free sorted. Up front Glenn Murray on a free, Le Fondre for £750, Nugent on a free, Ward for £400k, Paul Hayes the forgotten man at Preston signed for free for them last summer if go down they will look to offload as they nare skint and League one will not be helpfull in their position so around £500k. Total for complete new striker force approx £1.5million which will prob be on installments. However the sale of Leacock should get us £500k back. Therefore for me the investment will be in wages and we could have a championship level squad with players here to be as backup to the first team of as follows on approx £1million in purchases Fielding (RB) Brayford/Jones,(CB)Barker/Addison/Anderson/St Ledger,(LB)Delaney/Jones First choice Midfield of S. Davies, D. Jones, Bailey, Cywka Strikers of Nugent/Hayes/Le Fondre/Glen Murray/Ward Bench Doyle, B.Davies, S.Pearson, Roberts(if here), Green (when fit no need to be rushed), which ever defender not starting and any strikers not starting. This for me would be challenging to 6 next season (or should be at least). The investment is in wages and not in transfers. I'm sure we'd all love a million invested,(i was gutted we didnt get le fondre) but as i posted yesterday, NC said............ "We've got three teenagers on the pitch at the end and it's lovely. They are there on merit, they're the future in the next two or three seasons. "That's where we have to prioritise as there won't be much money floating around so we will be reliant on them." Sounds like bigus glickus et al will pocket any money from sales.... p.s. wheres shacks? NC wont do a 'cywka' on him too will he !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48 hours Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Would be disappointed if he went to Leicester after the way that they have blocked attempts by us to sign players (on loan) from them - eg Howard and Waghorn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JW- Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Ward wouldn't want to leave imo. He is settled here and is in the first year of his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorksopRam Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Really hope he doesn't. Our best attacking player by a mile for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hucknall Ram Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 If he goes it would show a lack of ambition by the club, you could almost forgive Hulse and Commons leaving due to being out of contract in the summer, but to "cash in" on one of your best players to team in the league would not short a disgrace.

Selling him would confirm that we are just the big boy's b1tch3s really. Besides, he seems to be loving it here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 2million pound, he is a bit of a bells and whistles player for me. I do like him and you do need someone like that in your side to run at players and get at them but his played 21 goals, scored twice and set 4 up... to me that says he looks frightening but doesn't produce enough. Put it another way, would you be happy if the shoe was on the other foot and we spent 2million on Jamie Ward? I'd be bemused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisse Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 If we get two million for him I would be very surprised if we spend even half of that to get someone to replace him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll know as much as you. In fact he knows less. He dunna know that Derby County FC is a far better football team than Leicester City.

p.shilton Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I would be surprised if Fester were interested in Wardie, they can afford and attract better. 2 mil would be a good bit of business for Derby as there would be a big profit in it BUT how much would we need to spend to get a replacement of the same quality? I really like Ward- definitely one of our best players without a shadow of doubt and I am not sure he would be looking for a move yet. It is fair to say that Fester have a better chance of promotion than us over the next few seasons and players will move for the chance to play at a higher level. I am sure though that in his heart of hearts Jamie knows that he wouldn't be anywhere near the first team if he went to a club like Fester and they got to the Prem- for one, he isn't good enough (not saying he never will be) and two, they would have the ability to invest heavily in a squad that could compete immediately i.e.- proven prem/ overseas players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
