Song is a good shout, is he available though? I hadn't heard he was.

I really want to see us start getting some players on the cusp and making them stars. Sickens me to say, but like united did with Ronaldo.

Either Lewandowski or Falcao would be great additions but can we get them ?

Plan B
Benteke
Michu

Both young and have proven themselves in the PL.

Add to that Fellaini and Song.

I don't care who stays or who moves out. That's up to Bob.

Bale will go abroad if spuds don't make CL.
I have a feeling we will miss out on the likes of Cavani and Falcou. I hope I'm wrong and with the new chief executive well mastered in the transfer business, I could be.
I think the big players already know where they are going. PSG will throw a lot of money about again. Both Madrid and Barca will spend big after their disappointing 1st leg and what could be the end of their CL run. The three of them are probably going to be our main rivals this coming transfer window and I guess some players will be on all four teams transfer lists.

Basically our rivals have started to plan ahead, yet we're still waiting around like last summer.

If the guys at Barca have an ounce of intelligence, I am sure they will focus on reinforcing their back-line and then replacing the donut between the goals. I don't see them going after too many forwards and midfielders(where we need to strengthen).

PSG is pissing me off. We are hindered by the ffp scare while they are splashing the cash and will overtake us if they go like this. And surely they will survive ffp somehow.

Edit: What Mase said is true. Bayern have already struck.

The Barca Boys have been through Campaigns at Barca, where player purchases will secure a term extra for a president or a win. I do not think Bayern, PSG, Barca and Madrid plus the Russians teams are gonna sit on there hands. Bayern have started the Buying season, Pep wants them in for his arrival. early bird and all that. No point now hanging around for our targets, get them in get them done. Gives the whole club a lift Get one in nad the others will follow.

Even the rags too mate. They've signed that Zaha kid, and although he might not be a world beater he's got potential.
