I'd not let Joe Hart go permanently!
I think we need LB and RB strengthening.
I think we'll probably get some more midfielders and another striker or perhaps 2.
Players in:
Chiellini
Maicon
Would LOVE Torres to come, if not Aguero (ideally both LOL) if had to choose i'd pick Torres. Although the magic would be that i would swap Robinho for Aguero and maybe some cash. Remembering how badly Real treated him Robbie would be well up for it and hop on the next plane.
I reckon we need more attacking midfielders so i'd have a look at somebody like Marek Hamsik, Cesc Fabregas or probably Mikel Arteta. I'd be more inclined for Arteta as he is awesome when at his best (and i doubt we'd ever get Fabregas). Could do alot worst than Clint Dempsey from Fulham. Swap him for Benjani and Bojinov.
Players out: Jo, Bojinov, Benjani, Petrov, Sylvinho (keep on as a coach) Garrido and thats about it.
Players that WONT be leaving = Shaun Wright Phillips, Steven Ireland, Patrick Vieira and Roque Santa Cruz.
Why? - SWP and RSC have not been fully fit this season. SWP has 2 good games and then goes missing for one.For me though he is worth keeping for when he does play well he is unstoppable and he will teach Johnson so much. Lets be fair Johnson and SWP on form on thesame day = set wing play to KILL. Santa Cruz WILL score goals if fully fit so id give him a chance. Vieira i think will be a good player to have for those mid-week games against Wigan at Eastlands etc Although i might say im not sure if hed get into our Derby dayteam if everybody is fit! Ireland is still young and will come good again.
My team would be
Given
Chiellini/Bridge
Maicon/Richards/Zabaleta
Lescott
Kompany/Toure
DeJong/Vieira
Arteta or Hamsik/Ireland
Shaun Wright Phillips/Adam Johnson
Bellamy/Dempsey
Torres/Aguero
Tevez/Adebayor
