Royalwaster Whittingham from Cardiff after they lose in the play-offs again.


I was thinking whilst watching today how he'll probably be in the premier league next year with Cardiff or a newly promoted club.

Happily see him sitting behind a striker for us. He's got a good scoring record, good feet, composure and vision.

My Ideal transfer list would be...

Defence

Bertrand
Konchesky
Connolly

Midfield

M.Phillips (Blackpool)
Whittingham
Lallana
Prado
Zaha


Strikers

Lambert
Rhodes

Now I know some of those are probally out of our reach and also there is no way we could afford them all so I would happily see only a couple of them.
As far as i'm concerned this team is not good enough for the prem and the main area we need strengthing is attack hence why so many attacking mids and the other main area for me would be Lb, I've put Bertrand but I can't see Chelsea letting him go espically as Cole looks to be on his way out in the summer.

As also said I dont think we will be able to get him, and also Prado has been one off Southamptons top players this year.

Brian has scouted all over the world and I'm sure he would be well informed about players from Europe and further afield. In the past Scandanavia and Eastern Europe have always proved a fertile ground for, respectively, rock solid defenders/goalkeepers and creative midfielders. It always amazes me after the World Cup how Prem clubs suddenly go out and start expressing an interest in players from teams from Scandanavia and the Czech Republic etc. I mean these countries aren't exactly a million miles from the UK. You would think in this day and age you don't need a once every four years competition to be alerted to the talent abroad - including Africa for that matter. Globalization innit?

But we would never be able to get him as he is comfortably settled into the west brom side so why would they sell. For Konchesky I assuming they wont go up and so we would be a attractive side to him
