Hayden 0 Posted February 3, 2004 I have seen the post about who can cut it in the prem league from our current squad and I have read it with interest. I also agree thaty to stay up we need to keep the team spirit as that is worth a lot more than foreign mercenaries. However, say we go up and Nige is given £5M to strengthen....who should we go for?Personally I think that both Matt Dawson and Andy Reid from Forest (who may be relegated) are good signings, as would Sheff Utd''s Micheal Tonge. up front maybe Crouchy. Just a few for starters but team strengthening rather than volume buying is the way ahead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bryan Gunn 0 Posted February 3, 2004 Although I don''t agree with players/managers having second stints @ their old clubs, I think Chris Sutton would b ideal if the money was right. We also need another defender, not sure whos available but they''d have to be a lot better than Malky + Flem to justify bringing them in! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DumbleDelia is Magic 0 Posted February 3, 2004 I too am a big fan of the Forset duo but I''ve got a feeling that some bigger clubs would be just as interested and we would struggle to get either of them. Someone like Mark Kennedy from Wolves would be a good edition if Wolves go down. Robert Huth from Chelsea would be a good centre back and we could have a look at any Leeds bargains though they will probably be out of our wage price range Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Archie 0 Posted February 3, 2004 i think it is vital that we bring in a couple of players who have proved themselves in the premiership.some sort of experience is needed,although if nottm forest were to go down reid and dawson for about 4mil would be good business, we could quite easily sell them on for about 7mil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
a1canary 0 Posted February 3, 2004 you''re dreaming if you think we can get Dawson. He is on a long term contract at Forest and it will take almost all of that 5 mil to prize him away.Not sure of Reid''s contractual situation... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mook 0 Posted February 3, 2004 I know there''s no chance, but I''d love to see Smithy here from Leeds. I think Sutton is another brilliant idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadDan 0 Posted February 3, 2004 I''d buy all the ipswich squadNot sure what I''d do with the other £4.95m, but at least we''d have enough ball boys even if they did need a yellow and green zimmer frame each Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hayden 0 Posted February 3, 2004 this is the beauty of being in the Premiership, who would have thought Birmingham would now have David Dunn, Dugarry, Savage and even Nicky Butt?????? Bolton have Djorkaef and Jay Jay etc. We have a fantastic opportunity to see real class at the Road. I like the Sutton idea, we could even resign Danny the Destroyer Mills!!

no1canary 0 Posted February 3, 2004 You would need a bit of young blood in aswell as the experienced players. Some 4 example would be Barmby, Wilcox?, Batty? But one thing is for sure we will have to spend big if we want to stay in the prem if we get there next year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MasterNagus 0 Posted February 3, 2004 If we''re talking fantasy football here, this is what I would loved to have happened...A certain Mr R Ferdinard from Man Utd getting his nine month ban, but it applying only to Prem, Euro and Internationals.Mr Fergusson, in wanting to keep his player fit, playing and involved in a first team, sends him off to the First Division leaders, somewhere in Norfolk.If only.I assume our Nige would have noticed such a loophole...?

Christopher Woodcock 0 Posted February 3, 2004 Hmmm. Good Ideas for you.When I be play a Norwich City Club Manager. I was look for Right Midfielder. As I was take Lionel Scaloni from Deportivo La Coruna on loan until end of the season. As he is so Super play. And I has sign Heiho Herrlich from Borussia Dortmund for 750k, But he is play for Attacker. When I be make him in line-up starter squad. As he has goal 23 in 42 game.So If Nigel has £5million, As he would sign Attacker Heiho Herrlich and Take Lionel Scaloni on loan until end of the season. So why he would add up new centre Midfielder as them would sign Giviliano Giannichedda from Lazio for £1million And can sign Goalkeeper Ronald Graadfland from Feyenoord for £100kAs take Clint Easton and Mark Rivers in Transfer-list at start of new season when he bought more new player Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
