New players on the way according to Gus.



Bloom and Gus have discussed bringing in new players to push for promotion. Which players should be sold off to free up the wage bill? Which of Poyet's signing , bought or loaned, are proving ineffective in this division? do you trust Gus with the cheque book?

I'd find an upgrade for Paynter, we're short on full backs, and we're lacking a powerhouse midfielder.

Paynter - possibly good league 1
Painter - good league 1
Navarro - unfortunately has been offered a contract - dohh!
harley - good league 1
dicker - good league 1
sparrow - good league 1
ankergren - Bad in all forms. If you cant come for crosses and handle well you aint never playing decent football.
brezovan - whats the point in him being around. never gonna get a game period

whislt i know we can completely empty the cupboard, id like to see some improvements made

New keeper, new full-backs, creative force in midfield who can tackle, a buddy for CMS. Yeah, I don't ask for much!

You are exactly right! That's why I think we will be spending at least a couple of years in this league before we can realistically think about promotion. To replace all those positions in 1/2 transfer windows would cost way too much money.

Paynter, Harley, sparrow to be sold (don't shoot me down if you don't agree, it's only my opinion)

To be signed: 1 x GK (to at least challenge Casper), 1 x RB, 2 x CM (one playmaker), 1 x CF (to partner/create for CMS)

Replace Harley def .. Casper probably too. Need someone alongside CMS but if Hoskins can get fit maybe we're OK. Barnes looked poor all season but playing out of pos given our weak CMF so would continue with him if we get him back to the front

full back with pace, energy andjoe Lewis can head a ball, attacking midfielder to drive forward (Lampard, Gerard mould), Forward who can head the ball to play on/off CMS
and of course a keeper, I hear fancies a move, only my opinion

I've always said and stick by it that I wouldn't let Gus anywhere near my daughters piggy bank let along give him a cheaque book.

The following ratings are based on whether these players are good enough for a play-off side. The current squad is comfortably good enough for mid table.

Ankergren- not up to it as 1st choice, adequate as back-up
Brez- not up to it
Painter- too slow both in pace and decision making
Calderon- undecided, possibly too slow
Greer- good enough
Dunk- good enough
El-Abd- probably up to it as CB, not as a fullback
Taricco- is quality but his body may be too slow for his mind now
Sparrow- not up to it
Navarro- good as back up for Bridcutt, as a starter not good enough
Bridcutt- good enough
Harley- is good enough but only if he gets his head screwed on and works harder
Dicker- probably a little too slow and indecisive, is class on his day though
Vincelot- great as cover for a range of positions but not as a starter
Noone- good enough
LuaLua- good enough
Buckley- good enough
Vicente- too good, but won't be fit
Barnes- not up to it
Paynter- f*** off
Mackail-Smith- needs to work on finishing and he will be class

Navarro deserves a new contract. Dicker's quality has been apparent since he got injured and we were left with Harley. I agree with Painter and Brez.

I honestly think that we only need maybe 3 players: a pacy fullback, a crearive midfielder and a more physical foil for CMS.

Other than that we do have some quality players. Just need to fill in the blanks.
