Whilst we would all love to believe, and now 'arry is in charge it seems more of a possibility, we still need to remember the relegation is a likely outcome for us this season. So having said that what do you think our approach should be this January? 'Spend, spend spend' or trim the wage bill down and a few low profile signings?
In my opinion these players should go out in January:
- Bosingwa (no explanation needed)
- Granero (good player but is probably on big wages and we could get decent money for him, plus we have Faurlin, Diakite and Mbia who can all play in his position)
- Park (just not been impressed at all, injured too often)
- 'Don't like football' (if anyone would have him)
- Cesar(?) (same reason as Granero - purely financial and Green has done more than enough in the past few games to merit keeping his place in the starting XI. Are we really in a postion to have two world class keepers?)
- SWP(?) (dissapointing for us since he joined, though some slight improvement under Redknapp)
- Ferdinand (assuming we get a new CB in)
Players in:
- DJ Campbell (surely this is a no-brainer)
- A Lambert/Holt type of player from the lower leagues - both have scored many goals for their respected clubs and would do a lot better job than some of the prima donna, high wage demanding players we've been linked with so far.
- A CB who's an aeriel threat defensively and offensively, the Nelsen/Hill partnership is working well at the moment, but whenever we have a corner for or against I never expect a good outcome.
Just to reiterate, these are the players who I would try to sell/buy to ensure if we do get relegated we don't end up like Portsmouth, whilst retaining enough in our squad to have a chance of staying up - we'de all like to believe but sometimes its best to prepare for the worst.
What do you guys think?
