Compo for Ings.

From the side picked today by Sherwood, I would like to see upgrades signed for Vlaar (as we think he's offski), Westwood, N'Zogbia and Given. I honestly think we could be up in the top 8 next season if we can bring in three or four players of quality. I also wouldn't necessarily get rid of those named, all useful squad players.

Vlaar is on a bowman so there's no way we're getting a player in exchange

File under bull shit

Well i'm all of a quiver.

I have have no quarrel with that.

Agree, though I would also add a better left back to the list as well.  If Sinclair can find form then he would be the upgrade on N'Zogbia.  Not even on the bench today though.

Don`t shoot the messenger on this one - i spoke with a coach who works for the FA at St Georges Park - he tells me Vlaar was at Old Trafford on Thursday and is possibly going to Newtown Heath in the summer.
In return we get Nani on loan for a season

Benteke is looking to do a an extension on his contract and will review in January if Villa stay up - he will look to stay if we are top 6
Sherwood is looking to bring in Livermore (from Hull?)
Sherwood hoping for two experienced marquee signings plus a few young players with potential (including a lad from Swindon whose name I have forgotten but I am sure he was at Tottenham with Sherwood.
Might all be bollocks but its great to be looking forward again !!!
Not having a go VCTM, but that bit defies logic. Why would that lot need to throw us anything in return when Vlaar is a free agent in the summer?
He might well up at Carrington*, but independently of anything else.

*Definitely make it to the training ground, but match days?

Both can happen independently. Sporting can't afford Nani's wages so it's likely he could go out on loan again. I'd be surprised if it happened but not because Vlaar will be out of contract.

Following yesterdays game my revised list is:

Given - I'd be inclined to give Guzan another season but would would make a cheeky enquiry about Petr Cech.  Mourinho does not want to sell to an English Club (I assume he means a title challenger like Arse/Liverpool) and Cech may want to stay in the UK which would give us a chance.

Richardson - thought he was okay yesterday but... - Andrew Robertson at Hull looks good going forward (see his goal v eng) but I have no idea if he can defend.  Davies at Spurs or Taylor at Swansea may be alternatives which I have heard about.

Striker/Inside forward - Sinclair and Gabby are options here but I think this position needs to be our marquee signing (assuming the cech thing is unrealistic).

This assumes that no first team will leave.  A few squad fillers and youngsters too.

I am good with all of that except Nani coming here.

What exactly does Livermore do? Never been particularly impressed with him. Mind you, that's what I said about Cleverley.

Cech must be on daft wages. Interesting idea though.

He is a mirror image of Cleverley so maybe the latter isnt going to join us and Livermore is the replacement. I guess TS has to have options

Livermore is one of those that the media hype a little as a good young prospect but doesnt appear to have the form to back it up. That said he maybe worth taking a gamble on if the terms are ok

The fella Brady at Hull always catches the eye on MOTD as he hits a good set piece, what is his all round game like?

Ben Davies is a very good shout.
