We need 3/4 top foreign players lined up

[Jeffro]

As many have eluded to on here, time is running out.

I am getting tired of clubs playing hardball with their players who clearly want to leave.

We have Blackburn who keep saying Samba isnt going, yet he is prepared to go on strike if he isnt allowed, also Hoilett who is out of contract at end of year, yet Blackburn are happy for him to play out his contract...
All this whilst openly skint

Chelsea who wont let Alex go unless we up bids and they get Cahill etc.

Man City who want a bidding war between us , Sunderland, Bolton and Blackburn for onouah

Foolham who want 10 million for a 30 year old


I say we make substantial final bids and if by Weds this week they still want to mess around, we have scouts out now and look to bring in a quality brazillian forward, couple of decent eyetie defenders, known names not has beens like before.

If the UK clubs want to lose money by not dealing with us, we need plan B..

Remember Hughes has bought absolute quality from abroad previously...Samba, Pederson, etc.

but without a scouting network and a complete absence of time that is a v dangerous stab in the dark. also the world is a small place these days - ten minutes on the internet will tell foreign clubs how desperate we are.

Foreign countries already know we are looking for players. I've seen reports here in the US about who we want. There have also been reports in Asia, S. America, Continental Europe.

How did Santa Crus play for Betis last night?

Firstly you cant blame Blackburn for trying to keep there best players, there in deep doo doo as well..
Alex being sold has nothing to do with Cahill's arrival, he has virtually had his contract terminated from last November and believe me Chelsea want him out..
And this is whats wrong with this window and why its soooo hard to get bodies in, only the desperate buy and clubs know that, it will all go mental with 24 hours left..

[BennyBoyRs]

Cahill has already signed for the s.cum.

Scored a great goal by all acounts.

Edge of the area, curled it into the corner. But some on here apparently not excited by the prospect of his coming...

Mad isnt it.

He would be a great great signing for us. Much rather him than Zamora or AJ.

You see that's the problem with all this transfer rumor thats gone on, people believe it and get very down when a name like Santa Cruz is banded about, when in reality he would be a fantastic addition, and has worked well with Hughes before.

Pienaar
Santa Cruz in to give us an 11 of:

Kenny
Young Ferdinand Alex Bridge

Sounds half realistic & good enough to me.

I'd like us to sign 2 strikers if i'm honest.
