You'd have no chance with getting King unless you put in a ludicrous offer. He may not play every game next year but that will suit him as he often has 2 or 3 games in a row where he struggles to influence it. With Johnson and Gelson Fernandes looking certain to sign and Andros Townsend on his way then midfield will be full of competition and I can see a couple out of Wellens, Yuki Abe, Oakley and Franck Moussa being allowed to move. As for Bamba he'll be first choice next year with Mills and we've already turned down 2.5 from Marseille.If you want a CB, Alexsander Tunchev could be available and would make a fantastic signing for any NPC team, but his injury history isn't too good.

hi mate,
i was taking a look at your team earlier actually, after all these signings that youve made
i assume that you're backline will be Schmeichel, Pantsil, Mills, St.Ledger/Bamba, Konchesky
i wasnt sure about your midfield, thought Richie Wellens would be in it because i actually really like him as a player, but since you say he wont be in your plans then i assume you might have a midfield 3 of Gelson, Johnson and King
with regards to your front 3, i was wondering who you think is going to be the central forward in a 3 with Nugent and maybe Gallagher either side??
I see you have Vassell, Waghorn and Howard but im not sure any of these 3 are going to be starters week in week out or are they??
or if not, you heard about any big name signings you might be bringing in up front just as the final piece you need to make you clear favourites in the league
strangely though, as it stands, im actually not sure your team will be as good as it seems at first considering all the signings youve made, and that it may have raised expectations at your club to a level that wont actually end up being matched this year

Some of the things you say make sense.
As for who will play in what formation, we really don't know. As I said we expect the midfield to rotate alot to keep them all fresh but the formation could change to accommodate them all. As for the striker situation, we are supposedly puuting in 4million + Waghorn as a last offer for Maynard. Heskey has too high wage demand and the same goes for Yakubu. There was some talk about this guy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teteh_Bangura but Sven says he isnt looking abroad at the moment. It also looks like we will sign Andros Townsend so he might not be wanting a striker and just sticking with Nugent and Waghorn as back up. Might even see Kermogant again this year
As it looks my starting 11 would be
Schmeichel
Pantsil Mills Bamba Konchesky
Fernandes Yuki/Wellens
King Johnson
Nugent/Townsend Maynard(if signs
or:
Schmeichel
Pantsil Mills Bamba Konchesky
Johnson Fernandes King
Gallagher/Nugent Maynard Townsend
We really don't know, we're gonna have a few unhappy players like Vassell and Wellens and Peltier because they don't want to be on the bench. Maybe we'll have a different team each week. Problems with having money to burn.
