Premier league

the team i'd like to see if we reach the premier league:    

(4-3-3)

 

Kasper

 

de laet/trippier    morgan     moore     cresswell

 

drinkwater/james     Cork     cleverly/good cm from relegated team

 

Knockaert/mahrez     nugent/ings/mccormack     vardy (jay rod role)     

 

(a few players like ings and mccormack could play on the wings just like vardy could play upfront)

 

with this team i think we'd stay up and it'd cost from 10-15 million which i think is reasonable with the money we supposedly have. although i'm sure pearson will probably look abroad for a few signings instead of the championship like the french league and pick up another bargain  :thumbup:

Too many signings can de-stabalise and fail to gel and I think we have the basis of a good pacy team that could just do with a few thoughtful additions.

 

GK - If Caspar stays we need a good back-up

LB - Konchesky may well just be found out but great back-up. Cresswell is the name many put forward but I don't pretend to know too much about him. Though pacy, just don't think Schlupp is a left back.

CB - I believe Liam will rise to the challenge in the Championship alongside an experienced CB to his left. Although fairly solid in the Championship, I think Morgan will struggle in the Premiership (will perhaps get slated for even suggesting this). Against Man City, (and many teams now have pacy midfields and strikers), he looked cumbersome, slow and out of his depth. Good back-up. Whilst there is no chance he'd come here and although quite aged now, if John Terry was discarded by Chelsea he'd fit the bill nicely despite his off field persona.

M - One nasty holding midfielder to compliment our excellent midfield on the few games we need one.

S - Its goals that keep teams up and even in the Championship we seem to need 10 chances to put 1 away. There's no such luxury in the Premiership. Vardy will create havoc and be a pest still, Wood has an eye for goal and is worth a place on the bench as something different. Nugent perhaps a 1 year contract but can't personally see him making any impact and would be on the bench for me. We need a Yakubu or Philips box type player but doesn't everyone!

Seb Larsson or Chris Brunt would be decent

It'd be nice to have someone that can actually score free kicks.

My signing recommendations in my forum were woeful so here's who I'd take:

Ings

Crouch

Joel/ Al habsi (if kasper leaves)

Ben foster if wb go down

James Milner (big money mive)

Possibly micah richards on loan

Knocky is decent to be fair. Besides we only get penalties lol

Not consistent enough, he's only scored the one, I think?

With somebody like Larsson you'd know there's a good chance it's going to be banged in the top corner.

Yeah only the Derby one in the cup from memory. We don't tend to get many atound the box though.

Apart from James Milner and possibly Micah Richards, what names have been mentioned that are unrealistic?

Rickie Lambert is unrealistic.

It's not that unrealistic. Southampton will spend money on a striker again this summer, lambert is getting on and won't be a regular there and we will have money to spend.

Didn't he get one last season when we lost to Burton Albion?

I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't a couple of additions from Ligue 1. No idea who but it seems a market that Nige & co are interested in exploiting as it represents far better value than the English market.

If Burnley don't go up then Ings is a must.

 

That is providing we manage to go up...

I'm sure they'll be pretty stiff competition for him if Burnley don't go up.

Hope we would actually try to sign him though. You can just tell he is going to go on and be a really good Premiership striker. Can't see him staying if Burnley don't go up (I hope they do go up though)

Cleverly (loan) I think he'd be open to a return.

Cresswell

Left winger

Quality striker

Experienced CB

Posted

Would need a few signings but not too many.

 

I'd hate us to go down the QPR/Palace route in pretty much signing a whole new squad.

I don't think it would come to that. Pearson's set up is different to other managers in that his young squad will look to make the step up, we'd just need to add to this squad, not overhaul it.
