We have been linked to bjorn siguardson from lilestrom and aparently we have made a 3million pound bid. he scored ten goals in ten games and has a handful of assists aswell. personally i think this would be a great buy adn he would either play CAM role like cahill. I was also wondering if he could play on the right, if so i would play:
......................Howard........................
Coleman......Jagielka......Heitinga....Baines
................Gibson.........Rodwell.............
Siguardson...........Fellani............Pienaar
.....................Jelavic..........................

I would also like to see Barkley eased into the CAM role and fellani + gibson to partner each othe in CM. Then i would like duffy and rodwell to get some aperances at CB and also garbutt at left back. Garbutt is gonna play at wembly in the play offs soon so it would be intresting to see how he does.

Blue kaz {Ed025's Note - good stuff that kaz..

Good team mate, although Coleman isnt good enough as a right back yet, I reckon he needs a season on loan in the position.

Still would like to see Kyle Naughton given a go, looks like he is getting better each season, I am sure he would be available for a couple of million

Siguardson is a striker mate, I'd rather see Barkley out on the right myself, or Osman...

I'd rather not see Barkley on the pitch at all {Ed025's Note - the kids going to be awesome mate!..wait and see..

Any hews on a Takeover

Closer than people think. {Ed025's Note - further away than you think..

John ahaha! :D

Unless Ive misunderstood (quite possible) then unless we get the investment in the next year or 2 a rich owner wouldnt help the playing squad as you will only be able to spend what you earn with clubs unable to use their rich owners to add to the playing squad. Unfortunately that means the big 3 (mufc,arsenal,RS sorry)will have a big advantage over the so called smaller clubs. Oh and by big three i mean turnover not playing squad RS no where near the blues in that department but I think we have to accept they do have a global presence which will bring them the funds but clubs like chelsea and Man city will struggle in my opinion as they dont have the setup they need due to buying their success. As i said at the start of this I could have totally misunderstood and this post will be pointless hope not :)

ToffeeAl {Ed025's Note - its all a bit confusing to me al...so i will take your word for it mate..

You are right, clubs will only be able to spend what they generate in revenue and won't be able to make a loss.

The process is being staggered in over several years, so it won't be an immediate hit, otherwise teams like Man City wouldn't be able to comply but you will start noticing teams spend less on wages, transfers over the next few years.

Having said that a rich benefactor, as far as I'm aware can finance a new stadium out of their own money, they just can't buy the players, pay wages.
