I'd be going all out for a top striker, Falcao or Huntelaar. Not huge funds needed really all round. De Jong or Martinez would be great buys too, worth a gamble and it sounds like people think LS will be played wider.

If the clubs were to do a straight swap who would be getting the better deal?

And which club would find it harder to replace the departing player?


Skrtel had the better season in terms of contribution to team and performances. We would find it far harder to replace Skrtel than they would to replace someone who barely played.

If we have a budget of 60 after sails and all, surely we could get a group like:

Elm for 10 mil or Strootman for 15 mil or Sissoko for 14 mil.
Sigurdsson for 7mil or Ramerez for 15 mil or Michu for 15.
Johnson for 12 mil or Krasnic for 12 mil.
Luuk de Jong for 15 mil.

I'm just guessing, but these are the types we need to be going for, not break the bank players but players with a low risk and with high potential.

I have never heard of Man City ever interested in Skrtel, why would they anyway if they can attract top defenders like T. Silva, Cheillini etc with the money they're offering. Funnily enough, I have never heard of any genuine rumour that Liverpool are interested in AJ either.

I would rather keep a player that has forged a good defensive record when his partner (agger) was fit. As someone already mentioned, AJ could pretty much turn into another failed british player and surely we don't want that after the transfer debacle of last summer.

Also read that they fancy Agger too , we should nip that in the bud. Take Adam Johnson over Skittles every day of the week , could be the missing link for us.

I hear that barce are interested in agger, but sturidge, Johnson and huntelaar are the player I want in. But also jermain defoe is waiting in the wings.

am I reading these posts right, are people talking about the same Falcao who plays for Athletico Madrid and is valued at over 30 million pounds, surely people are having a winde up thinking he would come to a Club like ours when he could most probably have the pick of almost any.

sell Skrtel and start Coates

Coates is good on the ball and would fit well in Buck's system, it will be a learning season next years so might as well use more youngsters
