Apparently Soton are willing to let fonte go if yhd price is right. Refused to sign a new contract. 33 and probably want big wages/longish contract. Would love to see him and dann playing together. Worth a punt?

Originally posted by Beanyboysmd I have been trying to work out what the squad needs in the transfer window. This is what i think we need... Replacement for Remy, Wickham and Soure Alternatives for off form players: Townsend, Puncheon, Flamini, Ward, Ledley, Kelly and possibly Cabaye Possibly extra depth given our constant injury problems. So I think we need a winger, 2 strikers, an attacking midfielder, at least 2 central midfielders and a left back... I hope those Americans have deep pockets!!! As others have said We won't buy that many players. The side has a number of weakness at moment some due to injury and lack of cover. We are shipping goals so we need to bolster our defence. We are weak on left hand side and need both a left back and a left sided midfielder. These two are the priority. The fact is there are very few quality left backs around who are not first choice for their club. West Ham lost their first choice during transfer window and his replacement was poor to say the least We have not replaced Bolasie and when he was sold there must have been an assumption that Zaha or Townsend could play there. This has not worked. The combined loss of Soure and Bolasie are the root of our problem. Remy was always a gamble and it hasn't worked. So we need a striker. Some players will leave in January, we know that. I am not saying I want Zaha to go but if he did and we got more than �30 million. We lose him to AFCON anyway and could buy 2-3 players, We have replacements for him in Townsend and Kaikai. On the fringe players, We may sell Lee (he is too lightweight for EPL),Mutch Sako Appaiah and possibly Campbell. I hope Remy goes back to Chelsea I suspect some of the players coming in will be loans with a right to buy. Left Back - Davies or Ivanovitch (Hull won't sell Robertson) Left Winger Brady or Reach from Sheff Wed Striker rumours of Gestede for Mutch (not keen but he would be cover for Benteke) I wonder if Ayew would be a better swap option

We need to spend big on a LB, and we need a striker. Having Campbell as our backup for Big Ben is bonkers. If he picks up a knock we'd probably see Zaha up top, like Pards tried with Bolasie when Wickham/Adebeyor were out. I don't fancy that at all. If we lose Zaha to spurs, then we better get spending, Townsend has been inadequate to replace Bolasie, let alone Zaha too. Kaikai isn't exactly lighting it up at Brentford, so I'm not counting on him. We need to bolster the squad with some young players with potential. Our midfield is aging (Punch, MacArthur, Ledley and Cabaye are all 29-30). And no one in the squad if looking to push them out of their starting roles.

I can't think of anyone we might get to replace Zaha - even if we could write the required cheques you also have the problem of getting top players to come to a rekegation candidate club with a thinnish squad and a s***e manager. ============ The Ferret ============

What about our young players - at, I think, the Manchester United game, two of the potential substitutes named were totally unknown to me?
