Here's my wish list:

2 strikers - Keep Chamakh, Gayle, Murray.

1 / 2 wingers - Try and sign Ince, plus to keep Bolasie and JP on their toes.

1 left back - Probably our weakest position in the team - sign up Parr as cover & move Ward back to RB with Mariappa / Hunt as cover.

1 Centre half - Let Gabbidon and Paddy leave, bring in a hungry talented youngster that will challenge Delaney & Dann. Mariappa also the 4th choice CB.

1 - Another centre mid who is a decent distributor and passer. Keep KG, SOK, Bannan & Williams. These will provide decent competition for Jedi, Ledley.

Discuss.

here is my list and this assumes that we keep gayle, Punch, chamakh, bolasie, Speroni and let murrary, ince, parr and moxey go.

- a thug possession type striker in the mold of Lukaku or Jozy Alidore

- another holding/posseion defensive midfielder;

- at least 2 fullbacks with pace who can complement Adrian

- another central defender for depth

Think that all sounds pretty sensible ten2follow.

Caulker is supposed to have a relegation release clause from Cardiff, wonder how much that would be? He's a good player, and still young. May be off to a bigger club though.

Don't think we'll keep all of the midfielders mentioned, and can see Guedioura departing too. Hope we keep Joniesta though. Next season could be make or break for his future with us.

Altidore? Hell no!

Another winger - hopefully Wilf. Another striker (maybe a better Jerome-type player), a left-back and a central midfielder.

Think we need another CB to take Delaney's place. a LB, a CM, another winger as I don't think we will sign Ince and a Striker. Remember Johnny Williams can play on the sides also.

IN:

CB - Caulker
LB - Bertrand/Richardson
CM - N'Zonzi
Winger - Wilf/Redmond
Striker - Wickham

OUT:

McCarthy
Ramage
Hunt
Moxey
Adlene
Bannan - Really don't think he will stay
J.Thomas
Wilbra
Jimmy Kebe

More out than In, so I would start breeding in some youngsters. Hiram Boateng needs some game time also.

MY TEAM NEXT SEASON:

--------------Speroni--------------
Ward-----Dann-----Caulker----Bertrand/Richardson
--------Jedi---N'Zonzi/Ledley----------
--Puncheon/Wilf--Chamakh--Bolasie--
----------Wickham/Gayle---------

I think there is a mass clear out to be had what with the number of players we had on loan to other clubs.
Thus I think we could easily expect the following to all depart, Price, Moxey, Garvan, Campana, Dobbie, Wilbraham.
I also think that Williams and Bannan are perhaps in trouble due to their size which is a shame. Paddy and Gabbidon are two others that I could see depart and then there must be questions over Thomas, Guedirola. And then we have to be realistic in that Ince will no doubt go elsewhere and Jerome returns to Stoke alongside whether we keep Chamakh, personally I hope we do.
Therefore we certainly need a left back, centre back, centre mid and sort the attacking options maybe another winger as mentioned above, should be interesting. Hope Jules stays to - tremendous this season and well deserved award.

Give Williams a full season out on loan somewhere, but definitely not sell him.

 

Just when I thought that I was out...........they pull me back in

Steven N'Zonzi is a fantastic player. Would love to see him in our midfield.

Could only see him come to us if:
1) Desperate to work with Pulis again/doesn't like Hughes
2) Wants to be in London

 

I ain't got nuthin' funny to say. Sorry.

Sign Jerome and/or one other

One new winger. Keep Thomas perhaps?

1 left back - Probably our weakest position in the team - sign up Parr as cover & move Ward back to RB with Mariappa / Hunt as cover.

1 good left back. Let Parr go. Keep Deano as squad player.

1 Centre half - Let Gabbidon and Paddy leave, bring in a hungry talented youngster that will challenge Delaney & Dann. Mariappa also the 4th choice CB.

Keep Gabs, let Paddy Mac go and sign one more to challenge the current two..

1 - Another centre mid who is a decent distributor and passer. Keep KG, SOK, Bannan & Williams. These will provide decent competition for Jedi, Ledley.

Can't see both Bannan and Williams staying.. Try to upgrade KG to someone better..

Discuss.
