Plus i wouldn't loan any players from the PL, because if things to tits up they got their clubs to go back too. I'd buy Ryan Bertrand :ayatollah: How much you recon he's worth? 1-2m i think.

Hmm, not sure on that sorry :lol: Graham would be first choice, followed by Evans, Earnie and Mackail-Smith :ayatollah:

I'd get Ryan Bertrand in on loan next season (we badly need a left back and he came on the other day for Chelsea and did well) along with Daniel Ayala (CB) from Liverpool. Derby and Hull (the two sides he's been on loan to this season) fans have been raving about his performances, and getting him, along with the return of Gerrard, means that we will have 4 quality centre-halves competing for 2 places next season :ayatollah:

True, but midfield and up front is our main priority as Hudson & Keinan work well and with Gerrard coming back should be enough. But, with Jay leaving and our midfield being generaly weak, Bullard and Norris are great shouts IMO. With DJ gone, Whitts won't being playing every game. He'll have to fight for his place, something he hasnt done for years.

Bullard can still produce moments of quality at this level, but they are generally few and far between. What I'm saying is that he's certainly not getting any younger, and he's also on pretty big wages isn't he ?

Norris is an interesting one. Out of contract is he ? Don't know too much about him, maybe someone on here can shed some light on the subject.

Mackail-Smith and Graham are too great shouts - no-brainers IMO !

Interesting about Bullard, you got a good point tbh. Norris, out of contract i'm sure he is..

I wonder what our chances would be of a cheeky little bid for Andy King
