Who else do you want us to sign to complete our squad?

Fri Jul 08, 2011 9:47 pm

The remaining players I would love us to sign are:

Danny Wilson - I still feel we need to strengthen the defence that cost us last season. I have no confidence in Keinan anymore, I feel he started showing his limitations towards the end of the season. So if Hudson or Gerrard (my preferred pairing) get injured, I feel we will struggle down the middle.

Emmanuel Frimpong - I know we have signed Gunnarsson, but I still think we could do with a high energy, pacey, tough tackling midfielder. I think Frimpong would fit the bill.

Alexei Eremenko - I am so excited we are linked with him. He seems similar to Koumas in his prime, picking the ball up, running at players and has the quality to produce moments of magic to unlock defences.

Wayne Routledge - I still think we need another winger to give Whittingham and Conway competition and Routledge is obviously quality at this level.

Leon Best or Jason Roberts - we only have Parkin as a genuine target man so I think we need another one. I have seen Carew mentioned, but he was on huge wages at Villa and apparantly, he was seen drinking in a club the night before a Premiership game.

Craig Bellamy - for obvious reasons.

What players would you like us to see us bring in to complete our squad?

Ive said it a few times before on here but i really think Lornegan would be a greta free signing and would give us a definite numer 1 keeper.

For me Marshall is terrible at dealing with set pieces and takes too long to distribute the ball out from the back.
Heaton doesnt command his box enough and doesnt make enough saves close to his body.

Yeh we seem to be going for frees, so probably won't happen

Totally agree with Kebe, would be a fantastic signing but Reading would probably want millions for him sadly.

Drop Best, Routledge and Roberts and I believe your there realistically.

bring to the Club? :lol: :lol:


When he's fit we all know what he can do! Was he given enough of a chance last year considering he came to us unfit and had not played for a while? It was always going to take a while for him to get match fit because we didn't have a reserve team (hopefully we will this year, and I'd only bring him here if we did) and the only chance he did have to get match fit was being started in a proper league match, and by only being started 5 times, he was never going to be match fit!! So I'd definitely give him another chance, if we have a reserve team next season.

Goodwillie and Bellers.

I'd be really gutted if we didn't sign them.
