Dawson Linked with Southampton

[LBLOCK]

So, all things being equal, you'd drop out Derry, Dyer or Hogan, yet you'd leave Andy Johnson in your 25?

In reality I think we have 5 spots in the 25
Dyer simply has to go
AJ obviously (to most)
Hogan very unlikely
Green will also likely toddle off
And finally.... A strange one but for me it's either Clint or Desza and I be gutted for either / both

Should be Onuha in my book

[QPR Richard]

Well, we need another LB, so that's Ephraim's place gone. We need to replace AJ. We also need a fourth striker so that's Dyer's place gone. Our squad would then be much better balanced.

At some stage soon we're going to have to look at replacing Hill and Nelsen, maybe even Onouha and Ferdinand. Dawson would be a good fit for us and I'd like to see him alongside M'bia. Out of our current five CBs, which one would lose his place? One thing I think most of us agree on is that our defence still needs some work on it and would welcome Dawson to the ranks.

Jesus completely forgot about aj ! Agree about the clint/Derry sentiments but were overly sentimental at times and lets be frank they no longer cut th mustard at this level . It's a bloody cruel league and if you stand still you get left behind . Harsh but true I'm afraid

Cant see us signing any more than 3 players in january, if that.

[Jeems]

Mike Rigg said it fell through due to wage demands. Will he have lowered them in 5 months?

[DouDou_87]

We need 1 CB and a supporting striker in the 25 at the end of January, nothing more.

I think the CB will either Dawson, Kjaer, Samba or the youngster from France that Riggs been to watch recently.

We should include DJ in the 25 as the supporting striker IMO.

The last think we want is another window with loads of signings.

[Del]

He didn't want to join us a few months ago so why do we want him in Jan... move on and let him rot in Spurs reserves on his silly wages.

Surely must dispel some of the myths about how massive the wages are we're paying if the amount we offerd an England CB, who we were prepared to pay £9m for wasn't enough to lure him away from a reseve spot at Spurs..... and to think some people want Redknapp as boss when most Spurs squad players will be on ridiculous money.

AS for the 25, if we get another CB then it will have to be Hill who drops out imo.... he's said himself he's not good enough at LB, and lets be honest, if we did sign another CB he'd be about 5th choice, therefore curplus moreso than others in other positions. If he signs a striker they'll replace AJ, midfielder either Derry or Ephraim. It will be like for like.
