What signings do we want to see?

Seeing how we seem to have more money than we first thought, what players do we REALLY want to see next season?

Drogba for starters, followed up by Bale as back up to Johnny Jackson , and Darren Purse perhaps...0

Sam Baldock
Liam Lawrence
Jonjo Shelvey (loan)
Anthony Wordsworth0 -
Owen? Oh wait's he's too good for the championship (self-professed)0

Le fondre proved for reading given half a chance he can score goals at this level0

Hesky is on a free. Could do worse?0

RVP0

Antonio...Just to pizz off the Wendies0

So roughly how much money do we have then?
Putting aside the obvious jokes like RVP and Bale, some of the names listed are surely WAY out of our league.
Rhodes, Austin, Rodriguez...none of these would even consider coming to us.0 -
Matt Kilgallon
Antonio/Kebe
Wordsworth
Austin (although highly doubt it would happen)0 -

i do agree that they seem unlikely. but imho our defence was strong this season and someone like wordsworth would bring balance to our midfield. so attack is where we need to spend almost our entire budget. with this in mind it might be better to spend a large amount (1 mil+) on a single extraordinary striker rather than split over the likes of baldock, schlupp or the others being mentioned.

a striker like rhodes, austin or rodriguez coupled with yann bwp and haynes would be a great strike force and enable us to play 433 or 442. added to a strong defence a signing like this would mean we have a shot at playoffs rather than just consolidation.
as someone mentioned on another thread a couple of players have heard the rodriguez rumour in training so it seems likely that powell is thinking along the same lines. a marquee signing would also give a lift to the entire squad...and tbh none of us knows how much money the mysterons are really willing to spend0 -
Rodreguez will go for about 5 million won't he? You're dreaming if you think we have a chance0
-
Cover for Solly, 1 additional central midfielder, 1 additional forward. Not sure who though, I'll leave that up to CP.0
-
Wordsworth is one of the few League One players who has caught my attention. Would be a good addition i think.0

Baldock or maynard
And peter withingham. Great great players0 -
A little surprised we havn't had any substantiated rumours yet.0
-
Gk to replace hamer
Cb to replace Taylor
Cm to replace Stephens
Rm to replace green
Quality striker
Pacy left midfielder
Job done
Would keep all the above players in the squad btw but time to be ruthless
Build the squad around Solly, Morrison, wiggins, jacko, yann and hollands0 -
PNE have got a few signings in already, 5 I think. Reckon they'll make playoff's at least next season.0

Like I said they're unlikely signings but beckford moved for about 2.5 mil last year so i don't think its impossible to land one of the above for 2-3 mil. Seeing as we spent close to 2 mil on transfers in league 1 and don't need a squad overhaul this year, it might be possible to spend big money on a single signing that could significantly improve our chances of success. Convincing them to come and play for us would be the harded part I'd imagine...0 -
Preston are clearly trying to emulate us - it's no secret Westley didn't think much of most of his squad. But what made Powell's achievement so special, is that it isn't easy to make massive changes and get success. It is key to do it as early as possible giving the players as much time to gel as possible. Which I assume is what they are trying to do.0

Mackail-Smith/Rhodes/Baldock
Wordsworth
An experienced RB for cover
An extra CB for cover0 -
Not Emile Hesky. I gather he may have been sen at the training ground this week.He is not one for the future should be looking at players who have a chance of cutting it the premiership.0
-
I was given to believe well before end of season that 7 new players were on SCPs radar including a player from Oldham - bit random I know.
Assuming that he still wants Russell and/or N'Guessan he could also release/transfer one or three out like Hayes/Hughes/Clarke.
So best guess we are looking for RB understudy;CH;Winger ;Centre Mid;Left Mid; Strikers.0 -
they rejected a bid for 5million last summer, so its unlikely we are going to swoop in for 2million and be successful for Rodreguez.Rodreguez will go for about 5 million won't he? You're dreaming if you think we have a chance
