We know the positions we need in but who are players?

Would like to know who people would try and sign at LB,CM and the wings.

fabregas, thiago or that other guy we failed to sign.

Thanks to the inflated market and the glazers we'll never sign the players we should.

Baines and Herrara/Fabregas. I think the players at the club are enough for the wings tbh, I said in pre season sorting the midfield out and having a CM who operates mainly in the opposition half and has good distribution would see a massive improvement in the wingers and I still stand by that.


Should be in for Pirlo if he becomes available.

Honestly, I'd give 2 of smalling/jones/evans a go if vidic is out. Before we know it jones/smalling will be overly tall, shit fullbacks who don't have a clue about playing cd

Aye were in the perfect position to phase out Rio and phase in one of them 3 with a view to do similar with Vidic down the line Raf at right back and a bit of luck as it is a long shot Fabio at left back meaning our back 4 was sorted for the next ten years.

If we aren't gonna win owt just stick them in and let em learn on the job. Finishing 5th or 10th is equally £#%&! so if and it is a big if tbh we are gonna £#%&! this season up badly we may as well get a positive out of it.

Edgar Davids, Marcelo Salas, Roberto Carlos.

This.

Smalling/Jones/Evans have a great shot at being our centre backs for the next 10 years.

If we're going to accept top 4 as our aims for the next couple of years we should be building these lads up now.

Same for Welbeck, Cleverley, Zaha - we need that core British/Irish in the team.

coentrao, garay, herrerra

Bale, Ronaldo and a young van Bommel.

Jones is halfway to becoming the new o'shea.

The guy is a freak of nature/natural talent but playing him at fullback is like playing rooney in midfield.

I still think we should pay whatever it takes for Marco Reus.

New number 7

Would be wasted on Moyes.

Put in another thread but gutted we missed out on Coentrao. Could have made the difference on a day like today.

Welcome Nani, any other Portuguese lads worth having a look at?

I once bumped into SAF and told him to sign a guy called Bebe. He trusted me that much he said he would sign him with out even checking him out.
