Fez of Mahrez Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 I wonder if we've got an outside chance of someone like Gignac, who's available on a free. His wages would be big but we're going to have to consider expanding the wage structure a bit. Seems to be linked with teams like West Ham and West Brom and, if we stay up, that's the kind of level we should be aspiring to reach through consistent results next season. We certainly monitor out-of-contract players across Europe so, if not him, wouldn't be surprised if we pick up someone else fairly high-profile on a free.
Bettsj2 Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 Would not want Chester. Our defence is looking better because of its physical dominance as much as anything else. Chester is just too small.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 Nobody from QPR, no way. And probably nobody from Burnley, would take them months to get used to playing for a club with running water in the dressing rooms.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 Has anyone mentioned Ricky Lambert? Hopefully not.
LCFC FOX Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 Chester Huddlestone If hull go down If Newcastle go down get Colocini and Sissoko instead

We certainly monitor out-of-contract players across Europe so, if not him, wouldn't be surprised if we pick up someone else fairly high-profile on a free. Gignac is someone I've been wondering about for a few years, seems comfortable in France. He's pushing 30 now though although has a proven track record. Not seen to much of him, is he more than just your bog standard target man? If we're only going to bring one more striker in I'd rather it be someone a bit younger and more mobile, hence Hernandez or Nolito. Gignac would be a good second choice on a free though.
The Horse's Mouth Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 I'm not sure why we've got all these strikers shouts, we're a little overcrowded in that department and I suspect Kram will be featured a lot more next season with him having settled in by that time, so in a sense he'll basically be our new signing.

I think it's just some people looking for an upgrade and a few more goals with Ulloa as our only real goalscorer this season. It looks like we'll be playing with 3 across the front so seeing a top striker come in to supplement or even replace someone like Nuge would be handy. Personally I think we should be looking at: Huth CB (Jonny Evans) LWB (Digne) RWB (Trippier) Cambiasso (another year) CM (Sissoko) ATT (Possibly. Hernandez/Gignac/Nolito) They would replace... Upson Konchesky Simpson Wood Taylor-Fletcher Knockaert Hammond or Nugent (possibly)
casablancas Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 Take Austin all day and night. Would love Pritchard, Patrick Roberts and trippier. That's taking into consideration that Huths done and dusted (not IDK just praying)

Haydos Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 Take Austin all day and night. Would love Pritchard, Patrick Roberts and trippier. That's taking into consideration that Huths done and dusted (not IDK just praying) Still not featuring fully for a poor Fulham team. One to keep an eye on though.
Bryn Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 You can't beat top flight experience, as evidence by the impact of Huth, Cambiasso and Albrighton. I think we need more of it in every single position. For me, no-one is safe. We are financially sound and can spend as much money as we need to within reason. I think most important would be at least one centre-back, certainly two if we can't lure Huth (he will get offers from other clubs). I'd have a full-back in one both sides. A DM, maybe a young one that could learn from Esteban who I think will sign for another year. Another centre-mid with a bit of craft. Another winger or two and one more attacker. Yeah. Probably in descending order of importance. I'd like to see an academy grad or two step up as well. Cain and Chilwell seem the most likely somehow.
Haydos Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 What do people think of Jonny Evans? Pos Experience in Prem + Champs League Decent Surplus requirements Utd Pedigree Transfer fee should be affordable (£7.5m?) Neg May want European football Wages could be too high
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 Would definitely take Evans. Don't think he'd come here though.
theessexfox Posted 10 May 2015 Posted 10 May 2015 I'd be happy with Huth, a LB like Mings (preferably one who isn't such a self-worshipping bell), a RB, and a central midfielder. Possibly a Knocky-type player if Knocky goes.

Scotch Posted 11 May 2015 Posted 11 May 2015 SSN are reporting that 3 PL teams are set to move for Nedum Onuoha. Could we be one of the? Would you want him? I reckon he's worth a shout. Can play anywhere Long the back. Would play well in a back three. At 29,isn't the oldest. Wouldn't coat the world to get. Thoughts?

lgfualol Posted 11 May 2015 Posted 11 May 2015 No qpr players please (other than Austin). Danny Simpson was enough.
Stevosevic Posted 11 May 2015 Posted 11 May 2015 How is that Argentinian lad doing at Villareal? Is it possible he would be back on our radar or has he moved on to better things?
Foxymcoxy Posted 11 May 2015 Posted 11 May 2015 Not Sissoko....showed last week that he hasn't got the 'bottle for a battle' that we need..Can't see Collocini leaving SJP for another English club! We know Nigel rates Chester, but his progress seems to have stalled in the last year or so. Huddlestone's a difficult one. Gets a real 'Marmite' reaction from the Hull fans, an asset when things are going well, but a liability when thet aren't !! Sissoko is ****ing class. Alright he wasn't at his best but he was just coming back into the team wasn't he? Either way I don't think you can hold individuals accountable for that shit show. He will have many many options next year if Newcastle are selling, can't see us having a chance but if we did we should obviously take it!
lgfualol Posted 11 May 2015 Posted 11 May 2015 How is that Argentinian lad doing at Villareal? Is it possible he would be back on our radar or has he moved on to better things? Vietto? Last I heard he was signing for a bigger Spanish team. I think it was Valencia or atletico
