Who would you sign if we went up?

Thank you, I'm here till the end of the season.

Buying loads of good quality premier players is a way to succeed in the premier.

I don't believe we have 8 players at the club who will be capable of playing PL football week in, week out, I certainly don't believe that we have the majority of the bench who are capable of the same. That is basically what those who I quoted were saying.

It's all about opinions but apparently mine are bollocks.

But you have stated for quite a while that you didn't believe Nigel had built a squad even capable of challenging for promotion this year so might have to take it on the chin that people think you are talking bollocks.

The way you talk it's like you think our target would be 6th not 17th. If Palace can make a fight of it this season with their squad we would be able to.

Kasper 

 

Kyle Naughton. - I'm actually an admirer of RDL, however his weaker defensive ability would unfortunately show in the Prem, he'd be great backup for Naughton.

Morgan.

Moore.

Fryers. - Young, Fast and a player who is improving all the time. Konchesky as second choice.

 

Knockaert

Drinkwater

James

Scott Sinclair - Almost a forgotten player, still think he would be a great player and could get him on the cheap from Man City.

 

Vardy

Guidetti - Always been an admirer and think if we get in the Prem he'd maybe want to come to us on a permanent.

 

 

Think we'd need a Big and Strong Centre-Mid in aswell to add that physicality thats a must in the premiership nowadays.

And a Second choice keeper aswell - Marco Bizot as mentioned in the transfer rumours, 6'5, U21 and Dutch, not bad.

Also, Thorgan Hazard as an attacking midfielder, creative and runs at the defences, maybe on loan?

We'd need 6 quality players coming in, i'd go for

 

RB - One of Byram/Trippier

 

CB - Caulker (If Cardiff go down)

 

LB - Aaron Cresswell OR Neil Taylor (Not really featured for Swansea since his injury, good player though)

 

CM - One of Darron Gibson/Cleverely/James Morrison from WBA

 

LM - Routledge

 

ST - Gayle

imo i would like to see a team similar to this:

 

                                   Kasper (doesn't look likely atm)

 

de laet     moore     morgan    cresswell

 

drinkwater         cork

 

knockaert cleverley mahrez

 

Vardy 

 

note: cleverley is very unlikely i know, but hull got huddlestone; so really why not?

and also mahrez is only included on the basis he turns out to be supposedly a 

cross between dyer and knockaert  lol

As much as Vardy has improved I don't think he'd be able to do it against prem defences.

I think you could be wrong. Seems to get better every game. And with he possibility Kevin Phillips joining the coaching staff at the end of the season, he could become even better with the right coaching.

i think his work rate alone will help us dearly in the prem and having Vardy up front is more realistic than somehow finding a player for relatively

cheap who is going to score us 15 goals. hopefully the players around him can help carry the load to

Really? I think he'd be a real handful for most premiership defences.

 

A year ago I could never have seen myself saying that, so I could be wrong again, mind.

My team would be:

 

                                                                            Schmeichel

               

                                                  Naughton/Trippier    Morgan   Moore   Taylor/Rodriguez

 

                                                      Knockaert  Drinkwater L.Bridcutt    Mahrez

 

                                                                        Vardy    Guidetti

 

 

Ricardo Rodriguez would be a big ask and a big buy, but would be a quality signing if we would put the money there!

             James Briddcutt Drinkwater

Have I said that?

I think my doubts have been about the manager and a couple of individuals rather than the team as a whole.

I've also mentioned that I'm changing my opinion about the manager and individuals as the season progresses.

 

I believe our owners would be hoping for something above 17th, well above, that's why I think we need more than 3 players.

Personally I'd be ecstatic with 17th.

Dont forget that any signings we made would need to be 'Pearson type signings' ie. Good professionals, team players, good attitudes etc.

I doubt he'd go for anyone who thought they were bigger than Nigel and/or the club.

Thats why I thought he might go in for Danny Graham. A player with talent, yet currently underachieving... its probable Nige would get the best out of him and he may well be available? Just a thought..
