Happy Fox Posted 21 July 2014 Share Posted 21 July 2014 We don't need him imo, Nugent, Vardy, Ulloa and Campbell would suffice as striking options splash the £7m on a decent central midfielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin JD Popley Posted 21 July 2014 Share Posted 21 July 2014 We don't need him imo, Nugent, Vardy, Ulloa and Campbell would suffice as striking options splash the £7m on a decent central midfielder. That's my view Happy Fox - as barmy as it sounds I think we probably wouldn't need all that if we wanted to shell out on an experienced CM. Know, again, it may underwhelm people but Darren Fletcher at Man Utd is priced at approximately £3.5m (source: Market Value). Scott Parker for a season as well may be worth looking at. Would prefer the former for longevity though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stomach condition could easily reappear again, I'd only take him on a pay as you play basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayfox26 Posted 21 July 2014 Share Posted 21 July 2014 I can see where you're coming from, and looking at it the way you've put it has slightly changed my opinion, but... We may well have four centre backs but there is a distinct lack of pace at the centre of the defence even though there is a lot of Premier League experience I'd be worried when we come up against a team with pace that we'd struggle big time. I'd rather we got another quick(er) centre back than two strikers first. Left back, however, is the position we need to strengthen before anything else at the minute. Schlupp may well be one for the future, and I believe he will become a very good left back, but just look at Reading away from last season. He was torn a new one, by a good Championship winger imagine what a decent Premier League winger will do to him let alone players like Sanchez etc. Konchesky isn't good enough for me, way too many times last season he seriously struggled to tell me that he could do a job in the Premier League still, his pace has gone and that was one of the saving assets for him in the past. As well as that, the key to being successful next year will be keeping the ball for good periods of time, Konchesky's punts up the line will hurt us next year as it's just giving the ball away to the opposition for free. £14million for two strikers before strengthening Left back, at the very least, would worry me. I realise that we need to strengthen in the striking department but I believe that Vardy is good enough to succeed along with Nugent and Ulloa. Someone like Campbell would do as another striker signing, especially for £800,000 rather than another £7million signing. A line-up of... Ulloa Campbell Vardy Nugent would be good enough for me, especially as we know Campbell can give you about 10 goals in the Premier League, who knows what Slimani could give you? people keep talking about a lack of pace at the back, but Moore is pretty quick and we have 2 rapid full backs in De Laet and Schlupp.I agree we should look for a lb but I'm not concerned about cb. Many of the best centre backs over the past 5 years haven't been quick, Mertesacker and Hangeland to name a couple. Pace isn't essential as long as you're good in the air and can read the game which Upson and Wes both excel at. If we got a cb, I'd maybe look at a young talent who will eventually replace was/upson and send them out on loan for a season. That's providing we don't have some youngsters in the development squad who may be good enough in a season or 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babylon Posted 21 July 2014 Share Posted 21 July 2014 I love Nige, but I'd have to question Nige in the transfer market if he signs Ulloa and Slimani for £14million (combined) before strengthening at left-back and centre-back first. Especially when both of the strikers in question are unproven at Premier League level.Why does it matter what order the signings come in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
