Lads, we won't be signing Bale, Johnson or VDV. Rivals won't sell to us.

I think we need to look at the likes of Mata, Defour etc.
[/quote]

And even if they did, and we could afford it, why would Bale, Johnson or VDV want to leave their clubs for Liverpool?
They've got better squads, superior managers and will finish above us in the league.

Most poster's 3 selections weren't based on realistic expectations as Bunny's original post suggested the budget was £75m which is not realistic. It's just a bit of a harmless wish-list, realistically we'll sign Brunt, Zat Knight, C. Cole and offer Lucas a new 10 year contract.

Luis Suarez (20m) ST
Van Der Vaart (20m) CF/AM
Bastian Schweinsteiger (30m) LW



[/quote]

Still sticking by this, I think that's us sorted. Not sure how feasible they all are at those prices (or any price), but anyway..
[/quote]

Schweinsteiger's really not a LW though, is he?

I'd also have Suarez down for the no10 role, which is where he plays for Uruguay.
 
Affellay 4 mill in January or free next summer

Hazard 18 mill

Llorente 17 mill

39 mill £ for a brand new attack. Pacey wingers and a 6"5 target man with decent pace and goal return.

Mouthwatering.
 
Shouldn't the 6CM standard comprise of 3 of the following?

Alonso
Arbeloa
Crouch
Bellamy
Mascherano
Riise
Hyypia


No doubt once Fernando leaves, after 3 months all these twats who wanted him gone will be desperate to have him back.

I've never been an advocate of "buying British" as a priority but as i've seen very little European football recently my 3 are all British.

Gareth Bale £30m
Andy Carroll £15m
Adam Johnson £20m (City will struggle to keep him happy as Milner & Silva seem to be the wide men of choice).

The formation below would allow us to attack on so many fronts, with the wide men able to swing in crosses for Carroll or cut in themselves as they like to and shoot or feed Torres. All the while Gerrard and Meireles are beavering down the middle, linking up with nando.

Llorente
[/quote]

I really really really want us to sign Llorente, surely he would be availible for £15mill ish. Him, a free/cheap Diarra and I'd be happy. We need a proper DM, not Pucas or Poulson.

Matta, Young or Hernandez chucked in would be great, but I think that's pushing it.
[/quote]

I like Llorente and think he has what it takes in the prem ie he is a big fucker

regards
 
Ha ha quality thread.


Neil I thought for a second you may surpass me.

Maybe next time.

As for the original debate.

Young
VDV
Ageuro.
 
Dzeko
Hazard
Afellay

That will entirely change our team, but we would probably need 60 million to get that.

If we can offload Maxi, Kuyt and Poulsen, (oldies but high earners) and get Toulalan (i doubt he would cost more than 15 to 18 million, which is a realistic target for those three players), it will be awesome. We can then find a LB like Davide Santon for 15 million pounds. So for a combined total of 75 million we can entirely transform our team in to a winning combination.

We should look to get two players in the Jan and three in the summer.

Now, how do i send this vital information to NESV?

Name another 19 year old who has had more than that...

He'll be an England international within a year and will play for a top 4 team (Chelsea have been linked with him a few times).
 
Not that it matters like and you can all laugh but this is the truth in terms of value and promise:

Bendtner > Caroll & Llorente

Bendtner = Dzeko

Bendtner < Torres

What does that tell us then? Keep Torres and spunk the cash on Bendtner.

The likes of Suarez and Aguero are interesting shouts but they'll struggle to play as lone strikers so unless we're reverting to a say 4-4-2 we'd be better of going for someone big and strong like Dzeko or Bendtner. Or Llorente if those two are not available.

PS Don't laugh.

Bendtner = very ordinary player.

That is the truth. It won't be long before Wenger ships him out. If Wenger can't make something out of him, there is very little chance that he will do elsewhere.

Only a Dan can be excited about him.

I read your posts with interest and often find them a good read too but why do you try so hard when ever you are addressing me directly? Doesn't it bore you to be proved wrong?

Anyways back to topic.

Bendtner is so mediocre that he's at an age of 22 has only scored 52 goals in England. (14 with Birmingham).

And there's no-way Wenger is letting him go without a big compensation - probably out of our league big - but this thread is about 'dreams' right?

Btw my name is not Dan, please remember that Jerry.

Dzeko = bendtner

Lol

You can harp on about how good niklas is but I don't buy it. At best he's an extremely average forward

Andy carroll >bendtner. Least carroll tries harder

Apologies, if i came across in an aggressive manner.

But to be very honest, your post i responded to was very odd. Everybody rates a particular player and have their own preferences, but no one else on this forum accuses others of not believing the truth when the opinions differed.

I was merely expressing my disagreement with your opinion, and called you out on your very evident danish bias. Blind patriotism is endearing to a point, but i just get the feeling you crossed that line long long time ago.

I don't remember arguing with you before to be honest. I remember supporting your point of view in an Agger thread....so i do want to ask, with all due respect ..what the heck are you talking about?

Don't apologies mate. A few weeks back you popped into a thread saying that every player I had ever rated had turned out shite. Perhaps with the exception of Agger but the verdict was still out on that one. Or something along those lines. Remember now?

Anwyays I made this post tongue in cheek which I thought was obvious but of course it amuzes me to prove so many posters wrong as is the case with regards to Bendtner.

For the record it's not 'the truth' of course but merely my pont of view. Those two often coincide mind but not always.

That was also tongue in cheek as was it when I called you Jerry.

Ok?

*sigh*
