Would love gary hooper at the toon. What do you think ed {Ed001's Note - I am not a fan of his. Yes he will always score goals, but he will provide nothing else in a match. A little like Negredo tonight, if he doesn't score he is wasting space on the pitch. I don't see how he would be anywhere near improving on Cisse or Ba.}

Hooper has done it in SPL and look what one of the most prolific scorers in SPL did ( Boyd) at championship level down here. NOWT. No lets improve on Leon Best when he leaves not downgrade.

The SPL's hard to judge.. Yes Boyd flopped at Boro but Jelavic has been immense to say the least

I cant really see what CB we are going after now. Toby Alderweireld is not coming this season. Serdar Tasci is know also followed really close by FC Barcelona.
Who are we goind after now?

Agree with Ed on Hooper. Better players than him and wouldn't improve on what we have.

Looking at players released and German league could have few gems Mario mandzukic is free and at 26 fits into our age limit a few others are breno cb bayern Munich pranjic( 30 but free ) also bayern Munich barnetta leverkusen

Mandzuckic has gone to bayern
Agree1

Is it confirmed that Mandzukic has gone to Bayern? i assumed they were just looking at him as a cheaper alternatvie to Deko?
Pranjic is far too old for us, agree on Barnetta though.
Agree1

I would take barnetta and maybe breno but they say he is worse than ballottelli outside the pitch. He was arrested and he was banned for playing for bayern last year.

What are everyone's feelings regarding raiding Rangers for some of their players - now I know that the SPL is pants, but imo if we could perhaps get Steven Davis, Jamie Ness and Steven Naismith on frees or nominal fees it would add a bit of depth and potential to our squad. All of them have rejected the approaches of the 'Newco' and would be available.

I'd take Naismith and Davis. As long as they were cheap really, but even as back-up players, they're probably not quite as good as what we need to progress. I can see them going to QPR, West Ham or West Brom, or somewhere like that to be in with a better chance of first XI to be honest.

I would sign:
2 strikers:-Guidtelli on loan & De Jong £10m
1 winger:- Elia £4m
1 right back:- Debuchy £6m
1 centre back:-Alderwield £5m

The problem for you would be that you would have to pay more for all those players.
Agree1

Not at poundstretcher but realisticly if those players were available for those fees ye might have queue longer than a poundstretcher sale to get them
Agree0
Disagree0
The only people who are likely to come from that list is probobly: de Jong and Debuchy

Surely we should look at fabrizio miccoli proven goal scorer and leaving palermo also wouldn't cost to much
