**How many players will we sign? Prediction time**

[Kinky Dribbler]

About 6, and none more expensive than 20m.

 

[Cityisland]

between 8 and 12.

 

[Bowers]

9 new players, 2 of them will be youth players.

 

[TheMightyQuinn]

I'm hoping we sign at least 7 first team players and of those it'd be nice if at least 2 of them weren't has beens and journeymen but genuine superstars.

 

[riley347]

major whinging from most people i think......can,t see any more than 4 "top"* players....(*= players that most people have heard of)coming in...............

 

[blue.w-l.ctid]

Depends purely on how many players leave, but would expect at least 6 players capable of playing in the first team/challenging for places (in varying degrees of quality), and maybe another couple of youngsters.

But anything could happen.

Our chairman said < 22 (" ....We all know we are not going to splash money around, because that model, that formula, doesn't work. You're not going to buy 22 new players and then the next year you win the Premier League.").

7 or so as long as we keep the good and get rid of the bad

 

[Bombo]

given, Nielsen (hart out on loan, kasper sold)
Richards zabaletta rb
Bridge +1 lb
Kompany,onuoha +2 cb think dunne will go
Swp +1 rm weiss could feature as well
2 left mid to be signed think petrov will leave
De jong, Johnson+1 centre mid
Ireland+1 attacking mid
Robinho, bojinov, bellamy + 2 forwards

So I make that a potential 10 signings maybe 7 if dunne, elano and petrov are still in Hughes plans
