Martin Waghorn and/or Anthony Knockaert could be a decent shout.

Didn't they star in the German remake of The Sweeney?

Konckaert looks a super prospect, but has been a silly boy.  I hope he learns by his mistake.  Oh, & he's French.

A signing like Solano would be good. That sort of player that has a touch of magic and is a bit older so can be someone the kids look to to help them out.

And a beast next to Westwood I agree, Frimpong is the man for me, I would pay the 3-4 million Arsenal would want and have him tomorrow, but we were linked with a big Danish lad a few weeks back that might be on the radar.

Agree as well and Anderson from Man Utd would fit that bill for me, but I think he can be filed away in the 'unrealistic' category.  I still think James McCarthy from Wigan would be a great signing and we could maybe offer up N'Zogbia in a swap deal.

He'd love to come to us.  The trouble is, I think he's decidedly average and no better than what we have.  Makes loads of crucial mistakes too.

I think he's decent and would rather him in the squad than Dunne, but I'm a fan of Baker and I think he needs a run in the side.

Williams is big, strong and robust. But, we lack a bit of pace at the back and would rather we looked at a younger option that can cover better.

Who are the latest viking lunatics who would rather cough up their own ribcages than let goals in? Find us one of these gentlemen.

We do lack a good viking don't we.. A bearded one would be my preference.

I'm pretty sure you are looking for Pontus Jansson (Malmö FF). 21 years old (I think?) CB, tall, strong and has a bit of Martin Laursen about him. Made his debut in the full national side in the Zlatan vs England game. He played something like the last 10 mins or so. Wont probably come cheap, but not overly expensive either. My guess around 2,5-3 m£.

Ashley Williams is terrible.. Loses concentration and makes so many mistakes it's embarrassing. Two or Three weeks in a row he passed the ball backwards to an opposition striker. Liability.
