Hamer, got to be done. Tell him he can come home if he commits to sorting his lifestyle out. Pay for a personal chef even, peanuts in the grand scheme of things.

He clearly has the talent but not the discipline but with the right support that sorted. His numbers in the Prem were decent a shite side

Scenes when the personal chef we offer to fund turns out to be the bossman from Istanbul and Gus has 3 rotating spits in his kitchen.

From Leicester, Ipswich and Southampton, the players I’d be interested from each club are the following players I feel could help our team or fill gaps where we have under performers who couldn’t step up

Leicester
Fatawu obviously
Monga
Jordan James but he’s a loan

Southampton
Shea Charles
Leo Scienza
Taylor Harwood-Bellis

Ipswich
Leif Davies
Anis Mehmeti

Scienza best LW I have seen us play
Hamer class player with CCFC and Premier league experience.

Not sure there are any more I would realistically buy.

I think we will sign a few loan players from decent European clubs and be paying a chunk of their salaries,the rules for loans from other Premier League teams is very restrictive.
Probably sign a couple of seasoned premier League players as well who are out of contract in the summer.
I've no doubt our salary cap will increase too, but doubt we be paying ridiculous amounts per week.

Plenty of talent in the Scandinavian, Dutch and Belgian leagues and we've had success with that route up to now so I think that's largely how we will continue, with possibly the odd older, proven prem player thrown in.

Shape Hamer is in the pace of the PL would absolutely destroy him. Can't have someone with that unprofessional an attitude towards their diet and fitness in the PL, let alone at a club that will likely be struggling and chasing the ball a lot.

Some of the players mentioned on here are beyond us, even if we go up. Summerville for example will be on silly mpney, plus will have suitors from established PL clubs. I would consider Watford have a handful of promising players. Azeex at Millwall looks decent. Value for money is probably in Europe though.

From Sheff Utd I would look at Brooks Peck and Burrows.
Ipswich if the don’t go up I’d look at Clarke Davis and Philogene.
Leicester only consider Farawu.
Southampton don’t think I would consider anyone.
Whether I would buy any of those though would depend on getting a bargain.
The only player in the Championship I would actively go after is Imran Louza.

I would have thought Doug would have been all over Sydie (Ciddie) Peck

I wouldn’t be shopping in the championship, Ipswich and Luton have shown that isn’t the way to go.

Peck's passing isn't great at this level, never mind for the Premier League. And Burroughs has been poor for much of this season with him only finding a bit of form recently.

They both went down the full "championship all stars" route, which definitely isn't the way to do it. There could still be a player or 2 to look at.

So thinking about us building for next season in the premiership fingers crossed.
is there any players in the parachute teams this season ie Leicester, Southampton, Ipswich, Shef Utd who would be worth us looking at or are we better avoiding ?

I can't belive the OP is looking to take advantage of his brethren in this way.

Rushworth and MVE are the only ones I’d be confident could make the step up. Thomas Rudoni EMC and Haji have the potential too, Id worry about grimes in the prem.

Don’t get this thread. Signing anyone from parachute clubs is a mistake- by definition they have bags of money anyway so the players are likely to be overpaid and overpriced.

Maybe there are others in the championship worth a look- Hackney if Boro didn’t go up etc. but parachute clubs specifically I’d steer clear of.

I'd like the second coming of Didier Drogba upfront, an Argentine destroyer with great passing and a sexy Brazilian wonderkid who can play AM/F/RLC. Sort it out Doug, that's won me every major league in CM01/02
