They'll probably sell Benjani, Vassell, and possibly Jo too, and Sturridge has one foot out the door already.
As for Santa Cruz, Blackburn have got a good deal - he's a good striker but he'll never become a great one.

And on the back of only having one good goalscoring season in his whole life.

If they bring in more players of his ilk, they'll still not touch the top 5 in the prem.
They are totally neglecting their shower of cunt defence and it's not as if it's even for galactico's, it's for over-priced,over-rated average players. .

They still have plenty of time to bring in new additions and if Hughes has any influence at all on who they buy then I'm sure they will sign a decent defender.

Man City to be warned off Lescott
By Phil McNulty
Joleon Lescott
Everton's Joleon Lescott is a target for Manchester City
Everton are bracing themselves to fight off a £15m bid from Manchester City for England defender Joleon Lescott.
Lescott, 26, has been strongly linked with City and reports suggest an offer from manager Mark Hughes is imminent.
BBC Sport understands Everton have had no contact and any offer will be instantly rejected.
Toffees boss David Moyes insists his stars are not for sale and it may be up to Lescott to force the issue if he wishes to quit Goodison Park.
Lescott has had three successful seasons at Everton after moving from Wolves in a £5m deal but City are homing in on him as their next big-money buy after landing midfielder Gareth Barry from Aston Villa and Blackburn Rovers striker Roque Santa Cruz.

Moyes, backed by chairman Bill Kenwright, is ready to block any offer and the crucial move may lie with Lescott and whether he prefers the greater riches on offer at Eastlands.
Moyes will also be reluctant to weaken further in central defence, with Lescott's fellow England international Phil Jagielka not expected to return until November after knee surgery.

18m for cruz is a ridiculous fee. He is worth 12m at the very most imo.
