Would be excellent if we got Hulk and Moutinho, since it's almost 100% done with Cahill. I would gladly skip the right back signing untill the summer if it turns out to be true.

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Anelka and Malouda Out------> Hazard in

Gotze/Lucas In

Bosingwa out--------> New RB in

Villas-Boas will then target a midfielder, a right-back and a striker

Sounds too good to be true, therefore it is.

Anelka and Malouda Out------> Hazard in

Gotze/Lucas In

Bosingwa out--------> New RB in

I would rather say;

OUT: Anelka, Malouda and Alex - IN: Hazard/Götze, Moutinho, Cahill and a right back.

I do realise that all those signings can't happen in January, so I would save Hazard/Götze or a right back for the summer.

Why Moutinho? Essien will be back very soon so I don't see any real need for a CM. A RW/LW, CAM and RB is Crucial in order to get better IMO.

Also it's important that we should be going for the Bigger name targets Like Hazard, Gotze, but if we miss out on them there are still other options

a Winger: Hulk, Gaitan, Lavezzi, Krasic, Lucas

CAM: Lucas, Kagawa, Honda, Eriksen, Sneijder, Modric

So there are Plenty of options, we need to get at least one of them. If not we really sould be using Josh more

[Cosmin 2,484]

Right Back

Creative Midfielder

Left Wing

[Sheva. 5,373]

AVB again said today, there will probably be just 1 signing after Cahill.

If this is true i really hope it's a midfielder, think we can do without a RB, left winger and whatever till at least the summer.

Isn't VDV their CAM? Thought Modric was more of an deeplying playmaker, but I could have been mistaken. We can't be sure that Essien will walk into our squad like nothing has changed, I don't think he will be as good as before tbh, but sure, I do have hope for him. If we get Hazard or Götze I would deffinetely give Mata the place as an CAM. Furthermore, it's not necessary to buy one of the bigger names. Look at Mourinho, he didn't build a team out of big stars. He built a team out of the style the players will contribute with and their hunger of being a big team. But I do agree, it would be an hell of a signing if we could get Götze or Hazard.

Really good post! I think you're right in the sense that it doesn't take a world class signing to change the situation of the team... it would of course make us look stronger on paper though, but as I said in my article a couple of days ago, if you can match AVB's philosophy with these players, you can get the team playing like champions... but do I think this can happen overnight... absolutely not!

Agreed. Look at Inter's treble winning side with Mourinho, they did not have a single player that was playing out-of-this-world football, but what they did have is the understanding of the coach's vision and the tactical discipline to bring it to life. That's why, imo, consistency in the managerial staff is vital to a teams success. It takes time to get players to play like the manager wants them to.

[Sheva. 5,373]

^ Sneijder

[CHOULO19 24,332]

^ Sneijder

Sneijder was putting in world-class performances because he is a world-class player. Put Inter were by no means a one man show like Milan and Kaka when they won the CL in 2007 or like Real Madrid and Ronaldo are now.

Well, André has said we would make only one purchase bar Cahill. It better be a brillant playmaker.

[Madmax 9,219]

Rodwell lmao

[J.F. 1,484]

Pique, Xavi, Iniesta, Messi.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Higuain

Messi - Ronaldo

Xavi - Iniesta

Alonso

Cole - Terry - Luiz - Ramos

Casillas

That should just about do it.

[Peace. 4,352]

Now we will be raped with the players' price tag. The whole world knows we are desperatly in need to get new players.
