I am worried that we are even looking there. As much as these players are good for lower placed teams it would not be a good idea to sign a load of them up.

I have thought Fletcher would be a good signing and Jarvis is another good one but something tells me that we would be mid table again with too many players of this kind. This is because they will have developed a losing culture and winning is hard to maintain with these players even if they do get a taste of it.

Totally agree with the Crouch/Pennant/Adam comparisons. We paid too much for all of them at the time of signing them although we got our money back on Crouch.

Would be better off taking a punt on a young goal machine from a lower division like Jordan Rhodes.

If the above was true then no one would have signed Scotty Parker.


Here we go again.

1) Scott Parker has played for Chelsea, Newcastle and Charlton and has always been a top professional. He never was given a fair crack at Chelsea, because at the time money was being thrown a bout at the club.

2) Tottenham were the only club that made a genuine move for the player. Arsenal also sniffed around the player but never made a move, because they didn't think he was technically gifted enough (and I agree...but he isn't that player)

3) I'm sure some Liverpool fans called for his signing, over somebody like Adam and Henderson, but it didn't happen, for whatever reason.

4) Scott Parker was not average at a relegated West Ham either.

5) He's played for England internationally.

So finally, I think a player like this, who goes down with a team, will always be plucked by somebody else in the league. But I'll think you'll find that these sort of players end up being at a lower team in the league, if they are taken. It's very rare that a top team will take these players. Some of you are letting it be known, we should be making moves for 3 or 4 of these relegated players.....yet are moaning about the last signings not coming of, Kenny spending big, all from mid-table clubs.


So once again heggy you have made a false accusation, it is not flawed logic at all. Scott Parker has proved his worth at Tottenham AND I'M SURE there are some players worth taking from a relegated club.

Notice how you've only provided one successful option out of a load of players that have been given the chance to step up from a relegated team. Name me another 10-15 players who've done it at a top 5 club and I may admit my logic was flawed.

I would love a player like adam llalana.

striking wise jay rodriguez of Burnley seems a talent at that level, might be worth taking chance at 5m or so

nzonzi would be very good cover for lucas. 10 times better than spearing. he is very big and strong and quite quick which is never a bad thing and we could possibly send coady on loan to b'burn as part of the deal. i'd deffo get him in, depending on price obviously.

hoilett on a free would be good. we need a couple of players like him in our squad, the only problem with free signings is the signing on fee and wages.

heard a lot about him but not really seen him as yet

the kid mason at cardiff did not look too bad against us.

Also the kid nick powell from crewe, everyone is raving about him.

Exactly, so why try to replace those with players of even lesser quality??

So heggy on this thread alone you have suggested 8 players we should buy. This is not FIFA 12, we can't buy everyone.

We need to add quality not quantity
