TheWearing · by **TheWearing** » 18 Feb 2012 18:24

redmond will go to a top four club, or even a chelsea or arsenal...

reading's strikers are not up to it at premiership level. roberts would be ok off the bench, hunt isn't nearly consistent enough, and you can forget about simon church too. we would need two very good strikers at the least, and have le fondre and roberts as bench warmers.

matt connolly
ryan bertrand
nathaniel clyne
creative midfielder
x2 strikers

Bit early to be counting chickens, but Bertrand, Sigurdsson & Long would be a superb bit of business.

.....................Federici
...Cummings, Gorkss, Pearce, Bertrand
..............Karacan, Leigertwood
Kebe..............Sigurdsson.........McAnuff
.......................Long

Think that would be good enough fo frustrate a lot of teams, and play some decent football doing damage on the break.

Personally I wouldn't want Long back.
The arrival of Roberts has meant that we are at last starting to be a passing side rather than a "chase it and see what happens side" and whether Roberts is good enough to still play Premier League or not I would like to see us play with that sort of striker.
As the promoted sides have shown the manager would need to be ruthless and not just stand by the players that get the club promoted.
The 106 side was different because it was a 106 side,i.e the highest points scorers EVER for a promoted team so major changes weren''t necessary.

What will be interesting is if we don't go up.
Will the new money mean that we can build a team that would be ready for Premier League football?

Drogba + Heskey on frees and Walcott for £4m should do.

Royalz96 · by **Royalz96** » 18 Feb 2012 20:41

i would get:
Rhodes or Rodriguez
Definatly get the Sig back
and Bertrand

Possibly Long

Wizard · by **Wizard** » 18 Feb 2012 20:46

Sidwell, Sigurdsson, Bertrand and Rhodes.

Royalz96 · by **Royalz96** » 18 Feb 2012 20:51

Why Sidwell? And Rhodes isnt even proven at Championship evel

urz13 · by **urz13** » 18 Feb 2012 23:14

I wouldn't mind the sig back, but not other old players. Rather see some new faces tbh. Not Rhodes either though, I'd rather sign another proven prem striker.

urz13 · by **urz13** » 18 Feb 2012 23:43

Actually - I'd quite like Zaha, although I can't see us getting him

RoyalJames101 · by **RoyalJames101** » 19 Feb 2012 11:19

Matt MilLOLOLs.

Then loan him to Accrington.

Might even go as far as to emulate the treble that Man Utd did in '99.

TheWearing · by **TheWearing** » 19 Feb 2012 16:03

winchester_royal Might even go as far as to emulate the treble that Man Utd did in '99.

No! We will win the following: Carling Cup, Premiership, Champions League and the FA Cup!

Then get relegated the following season
