Hamer, Morrison, Dervite, Wood, Poyet, Sordell + 1 x LM, 2 x RM, 2 x CM, 1 x CB and 2 x ST (Obika + 1) + Hughesy (player coaching role)
These added to Solly, Wilson, Wiggins, Fox, Cousins, Jackson, Harriott, Reza, Piotr, Church will see us OK next season. Back was pretty solid, focus on attacking and creating options IMHO.
Mathieu Baudry Astrit Alex Pritchard Chris Burke Tom Cairney Stefan Scougall Callum Wilson Kieran Agard Lukas Jutkiewicz
No thanks
Who were you expecting Messi?
Everyone on that list would be an improvement on what we have.
A few of them yes.
But not players who are on decent salaries and may be losing their hunger soon I.e Chris Burke and jutzizihdhem
Burke is one of the best midfielders in this league imo, and Jutkiewicz has done very well at Bolton on loan this year and will probably be available on the cheap from Boro, he's still only 25 as well so no reason for him to be losing his hunger.
Definitely agree with Brit Assombalonga, seems to be in the right place right time?! Shouldn't cost to much, I would think he would relish the chance to play for CAFC, if that goes pear shaped he can always move to our feeder club and play in the 'champions league'!!! Come on Roland you know it makes sense! COYR
anyone think sam winell can score goals at this level?? worth a punt I reckon. also Stuart nelson the pikes gk seen him play a couple time this season and he looks incredible! I think he could easly replace hamer as num 1 if not sub

I'd like him aswell but apparently paid close to a million last summer so probably quite doubtful.
I'd love to see one Scott Parker back at The Valley. He would be magnificent.
He'll be there when we beat Fulham.
Prefer poyet Instead of Parker.
Really don't want Parker back. Left like a brat. Ruined our best ever season. Wouldn't want him coming back to end his career like some sort of charlton hero.

Can we afford him? Will they expect the same sort of money they received for Dwight Gayle?
do we really think Roland is going to put his hands in his pocket,i have mixed feelings about that,prove me wrong please
I guess actions speak louder than words but RD was rumoured to be more than willing to spend a bit of money on reinforcements this season, just wasn't able to agree terms with players.
We'll see but I'm confident that next season will at least be an improvement on the one that has just passed, quietly confident that if we get the right bodies in we could surprise a few teams as well.

Seriously, what did we see from him this season, nothing IMO looked great last season, but poor since he has been back not surprised it never worked out for him at Brighton and in all honesty I dont want to see him back, apart from his song he wont be missed.
I wouldn't bother with Obika again. I wouldn't mind keeping Sordell if he were to keep his latter end to the season form and was really cheap. But we lose Obika and Sordell now and that leaves Church, Reza, Piggott and PP. Unless Reza and PP come back next season ready for this league we are in trouble again. I honestly don't know who we could afford to bring in and may have to bow to our European links for scouting unknown talent unless RD has a decent transfer kitty available.
And as much as i like AA as his passing and creativity are excellent, his poor stamina worries me for someone who is only 24. People were saying he is not match fit, but he played more games than a pre-season and still couldn't get fit. thats a worry. If he could last 90 minutes i'd sign him up in a heartbeat.
Defensively we are fine (and i class Cousins and Poyet in that area). We just need attacking players. Maybe one more CB to replace Wood and Cort (as much as i like him he has injuries and we need a long term replacement).
Lets get a manager then let him and the owners (as they have to pay the fees) decide who to bring in.

Glenn Murray can fook right off. Palace Scum
Bramble, Llera, Doherty, Seaborne
Green, McOxo, Racon, Reid
Heskey, Church
Premier League here we come!
That Sako from wolves looks a bit handy.
