RLC looks done which is great. The Sakho transfer will go long into the window whilst prices are haggled - when you see Liverpool sign a significant CB, that's when I think there will be positive movement. I think we will get him for circa £26m with £4-5m paid in add-ons should he get back into the French team, assist to keep X amount of clean sheets in first season etc. We need a decent keeper. Not sure if Wayne is good enough to be number one and I would like to see an upgrade, whether or not that's Cillessen, I don't know really. Heard mixed views on him as a stop stopper! Finally, I'd like us to sign another experienced head to help sit and see out games. I thought Flamini was right at the time but it didn't work out the way I thought it would but I'd still do it again with someone similar. Any Makelele type players out there with one or two years left in them?

You're forgetting a striker or possibly 2 strikers. We only have Benteke. Sadly I'd bet money that Wickham will be back for a maximum of 6 games before picking up another injury so we desperately need some back up and competition for Benteke.
Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!! |

I'd be surprised if we spent £20 mil on a keeper this year and managed to get £4.5 mil for Sako. Yeah you know what I'd be surprised with the keeper as well actually. But if FdB really fancies him and Barcelona are up for selling rather than loaning then potentially we could afford him. But agreed in hindsight it'd be a suprise to spend that much.

Both untrue and unfair on Wickham...he copped a bad injury. It happens. Hardly makes him Jonny WIlliams. He'll be back and firing this season and will push Benteke hard I reckon. We're lucky to have two top quality strikers. All we need now is a 3rd different option (smaller, pacey, runs behind etc).

He's been at the club just shy of 2 years now in which time he's made 34 appearances. I'm happy to be proved wrong but in that time I can't remember him having a real good run of games without either an injury or suspension getting in the way. We shall see.

I'd be more than happy with his out come... Cillessen (loan - option to buy) Jimmy Mac sell - £9m Net spend: £40m

This is all well and good but what about a right back. This has got to be a priority. Hopefully some one better than Ward. We also need a keeper -Hart? That will be a reasonable summer I reckon.

Will get Munir, he will have 2 decent seasons at us and then Barca will activate the buy back clause.

Ya ya ya Sakho not coming. Once we've signed a decent first choice CB or he's signed for someone else is when I'll believe that one. No fat lady sung yet.
