One/two more player(s)

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

We have the following who could all start (excludes fringe players)

Dzeko, Aguero, Negredo
Jovetic, Nasri, Silva, Navas
Yaya, Fern, Gaz Baz, Javi, Rodwell
Clichy, Kolarov
Zabaleta, Richards
Kompany
Lescott, Nastasic

Hart

We need another CB, maybe a winger and maybe another striker. But we will only get two (maybe only one.)

Yer beginning to sound like 'Arry 'Triffic!

 

[dancinonfergiescoffin.]

salvio...benfica winger could be one of them..............

 

[micky_blue]

IMO Leighton Baines would be a good shout - bid the 18M that the rags won't and rub their noses in it again..........

We could possibly offer a player exchange or let Everton have a loan player for the season.......perhaps Guidetti, would be able to see if he can do it in the PM

think he would be too good to be back up. and I'm not totally convinced he is good enough defensively to be the regular starter

 

[Cajun4689]

maybe another striker

I don't think we need another striker.

 

[citytill1die84]

Back up Right Sided CB although we have Micah but we can't trust him to stay fit. Other than that I just can't see what needs replacing unless Kolarov is sold. Midfield and Attack we're now flourished with amazing talent and balance. Although I do see Dzeko being sold.

 

[Sleeping_Easy]

A CB with experience in europe (rumours of pepe), a young LW who would be happy with a squad role and a young LB as back up to clichy. Its a shame luke shaw signed a new deal at southampton as he would have been perfect for the back up role.

Positions we're set in and don't need to buy (as things stand) are Strikers,RM, CAM, CM/DM, RB and goalkeeper.

Good evening all, it might not be the appropriate thread, so apologies.

Is the purchase of Jovetic essentially the replacement for what would have been Isco, or a completely different scenario?

 

[daxman]

No more signings please. We have enough as is. The only business left should be trying to sell Kolarov.

goalie: Hart, Panti, Wright

CD: Kompany, Nastasic, Lescott, Garcia, Richards, Rodwell
LB: Clichy Zabaleta, Lescott, Nastasic, Barry
RB: Zabaleta, Richard Clichy, Milner
CM: Yaya, Barry, Rodwell, Garcia, Milner Nasri, Silva, Kompany Zabaleta
WING: Navas, Milner Nasri, Silva
AM: Silva, Nasri, Jovetic Yaya, Milner, Aguero
STR: Dzeko. Negredo, Aguero, Jovetic


I thin we are more than set.

Imho they would both take the left position in a 4-3-3 formation, or in a 4-2-3-1. But as the boss has said he wants to players for every position, we might very well have been after both of them.
Jojo is the only player we currently have capable of playing convincingly in that position, unless Pellegrini will use Kun there as well.
Nasri could do a fairly good job there, but is so much better played centrally.

So I wouldn't be overly surprised if we see yet another wide man come in before the t-window shuts.
