Which player not on the radar of the big clubs (Ribery, Tevez, Aguero....) would you like to see signed.

Based on nothing but the 90 minutes he played against the scum, I'd be interested in that Hulk lad from Porto. Only 22, strong as an Ox, great skill and work-rate, I think he'd be a fantastic understudy to Torres. Not sure how much, but presumably much less than Tevez and the rest.
 
I think Hulk would be extremely frustrating. He doesn't look up at all, gets his head down and just runs (usually into a defender), he doesn't strike me as the smartest of players.

He had a good game in the first leg, but as we saw in the second leg it didn't take much to keep him quiet.

I think there's a huge difference between him and Tevez, which would of course be reflected in their prices.

Bit like Lavezzi based on the YouTube clips posted - although he does it at lightning speed.

You see, I didn't see the second leg, so I'm going to dismiss your observations, and stick to my knowledge gleaned from 90 minutes (minus the opening 10 mins, and two toilet breaks- I was on the sauce).

I wouldn't mind it if we could sign Hleb on the cheap.
[/quote]

I quite like him, apart from the fact that he scores no goals, isn't suited to playing on the flank, and is yet another of those "creative link" players that don't actually do that much creating or linking.
 
Aqui-fucking-lani.
And i'll keep saying it every year untill we sign him.

Kyle Naughton, right back at Sheffield United. I've seen him 6 times this season (3 times at RB and 3 times filling in at LB) and he was excellent on each occasion. I have no doubt he will be in the Premier league next season.

He looked decent yesterday. Im glad Sheff Utd didn't go up though. I can't stand that pisshead cunt Howard in midfield.

From what i've seen so far Doc he looks quite similar in style to Gael Clichy - he is very composed in possession, incredibly quick and loves to get forward - strong in the tackle too.

Not a great day for young Jamie Ward getting sent off at Wembley - I still have high hopes for him but he needs a regular starting berth at Sheffield United before he can adjust properly to the Championship.

Podolski, for the few games I have watched him play for Germany
[/quote]

He's already signed for Cologne.
 
I would love to see Luis Suarez from Ajax, only worry would be is if he struggled like Babel.

I wouldn't mind Givanildo Vieira de Souza (hulk lol) , I dont think he just gets his head down and runs into defenders, i think he is very quick and reads games well has a cracking shot, plus his obvious body strength.

I like the look of Mata of Valencia, skilfull, quick and very versitile.

Gourcouff would be fan- bloody tastic, he is a serious talent, only prob is his desire to stay in France and his contract situ with Milan.

Always wanted to see a player like Kerlon in our league, again like Suarez, he would either be amazing or plain shite so big risk.

Cristian Rodriguez/Lucho Gonzalez of Porto are both fantastic, Rodriguez was immense against Man Utd & plays lw and rw and Lucho, although getting on, has been fantastic for Porto.

Dani Guiza of Fenerbache as we have seen is a good good option, brilliant positioning and causes defenders nightmares. Dunno if he has what it takes to be on the left though.

Any of them would be good options for us.

Fryatt will never be a Premier League player IMO but Kightly could become a star next season at this level.

Naughton and McCormack at Cardiff City look to me to be capable of playing at the top level.

I'll be surprised if he get more than 15 league goals next season at the higher level.

Haha.

He's still only 23 so maybe he can handle the Championship defences better than 2 seasons ago when he managed just 3 goals despite playing in most of Leicester's games.

I read on another site that he is one of a number of players that we have scouted recently.
I think the source was a bit dubious though so don't get you hopes up.
