I would be more inclined to cherry pick Championship players from teams who just miss out on promotion.

Mitrovic and Tom Cairney from Fulham (and Newcastle)
Jack Grealish from Villa
Danny Ayala from Middlesborough

All the players we sign should not only be better than who we are releasing but for me better than the starting 11 players we have if at all possible

New striker, Winger and centre mid need to be upgrades on our starting 11 .. not just replacing squad players.
Exactly this! This why I don't think we'll be signing players all over the place, only a very few - and certainly not the long lists that some are suggesting; very much quality over quantity.

Ad hominem

Wow you really are losing your shit, following me around the board. And no, ad hominem is when you play the player not the ball, no ball here so its a straight up flame.

Yet another correction.

Ad hominem is the stock-in-trade of the (far) right. You're right, though, ad hominem is when you play the person not the ball, and is about the first form of argument rejected when introduced to logic.
Shall we have a look through your profile and see whether you've ever resorted to it?

Go for it, why not compare with the bag of idiots on here, the(far) left.

No it isn’t. It’s an argumentative strategy whereby you concentrate on attacking the character of the person making the argument, or persons associated (the “crybaby”), rather than tackling the argument. All this ball and man stuff just simplifies it for football fans.

What, you’ve been literally dictionary defining a term you only came across this afternoon?

What you’ve been saying is unclear since you don’t understand it, move the goalposts like a six year old, have the English skills of a blind amoeba (yes I know you’re dyslexic before that gets offered up again, but you’re debating on the understanding of phrases so you’re fair game) and possess the social skills of a Flump on acid.

You’ve literally contradicted yourself with the quoted post. The sad thing is you don’t understand how.

Back on topic which relegated players would you nick?

Ndiaye at Stoke looks good and is the big powerful midfielder I think we need. Would also like to see Nathan Redmond and Shane Long out here.

I’m surprised Jack Butland hasn’t at least been mentioned, although I would expect to see him end up somewhere like Liverpool.

You beat me to it. I'd rather a hungry player who wants a first/another shot at the EPL than someone like Barry. A lot of players in the top 6/8 Championship sides are good enough for lower EPL sides, most of our and Udders players prove that.
