Provided they grow a collective pair, Amavi and Grealish should combine well on the left next season.

Time and again yesterday, Grealish drew two defenders to him playing Cissokho in down the left where the chances were wasted.

Amavi in that position should be able to create plenty of goals.

new keeper for sure, leader at centre half to organise defence, new right back, new captain in midfield, new striker,

looks like we will be competing with the two if not three clubs in the north east for players

id sell Gana to be honest, a fair weather player not one for a scrap and not a character we need next season

They've done us over a couple of times with centre halves (Curtis Davies and Lescott), but I wonder how much mileage Jonas Olsson has left in him.  By all accounts he will be leaving Albion at the end of the season and if he has anything left, he might not be a bad signing for the Championship.  Leader, nasty side to him - just what we need.  Have to bad careful though, and we don't need another Lescott.

And while we're on the subject of those idiots, James Morrison would be a very good signing as well.

Olsson and Morrison would be good shouts for sure, Morrison will surely get top division offers though

It would really depend on how much he has got left in the tank.  We really don't need another Lescott, but if he has got a season or two he could be exactly the type of defender we need.

That big bugger with the beard at Leicester is ideal at the back. I would even be tempted despite his age to have Distin for a season

I think Jedinak at Palace would be a decent asset. Put a player like that next to Westwood and the latter might look salvageable.

Another who would be a decent signing, but probably will have top flight offers.  A leader and would give us the physical edge we have been missing.  Unfortunately, I don't think Westwood is salvageable in any situation.

Please not another season, I'm begging you.

Jedinak is crap. And I like Westwood. I think he'll be fine next season.

Watching Westwood play football is like watching old people f##k (I presume).

Next season's Lescott, but with less ability to start with.

Plus he's an odious, cheating, shit and I might just puke a kidney up if we signed him.

The only one I'd take off them that we might stand a chance with is Lambert if we get rid of Gestede and/or Kozak.

Yeah I agree. Cheating fucker who gave it the larg'un when getting Herd (?) sent-off. I'd hate him to come.

Christ, imagine a team with Olsson as the bedrock at the back and coached by Pearson.

You think we've got a squad full of odious wankers now?

If so we should tempt Barton out of "retirement" to complete the set.

I don't like Barton and I don't want him but as has said many times before our midfield could do with a nasty fucker in there, last genuine combative midfielder was Boateng. NRC liked a tackle too but none of the current crop get involved enough for me.

But that's the thing, they don't need to be nasty f##kers, just competent.

The best midfields we've turned out in recent years have been Petrov and Barry followed by Petrov and Milner.

Not so much nasty bastards, just good footballers. The rest of it is macho bollocks.
