Official League Released List

[Nobbys Belly]

Cruise and Randall were supposed to be two of Arsenals more promising youngsters were they not? Possibly Coyle type players.
John Spector looked a good player when moved in to midfield still only 25 maybe a more financially viable option than Reo-Coker.

Eidur!

Take Kevin Phillips on a short term loan- say about a week- and bury the fecker under 50 feet of concrete so he can never ever score against us again

i suspect he'd still pop up and scuff one in off his knee...

[Nobbys Belly]

Lets just hope its a championship club that pick him up and not one of the prem new boys or he may yet come back to haunt us

[Lord Kangana]

Reo Coker is one of the real stand outs on that list. But (allegedly) he wants squillions.

Of the others that interest, you'd be looking at inserting all sorts of clauses based on appearances or input. I can't see us realistically taking any of them. But in an ideal world it'd be Woodgate and Hargreaves.

[bristolwanderer]

defo Gera and Kamara.

Randall is 22, I believe, and is average in League 2.
Cruise is 20 and couldn't get a game for Carlisle. Definitely no better than Connolly.

Kamara
Gera
Reo Coker
Barnes

Be a good bench

[Lord Kangana]

Who would you put on it though?

[hisroyalgingerness]

It's like this

Kamara has had injury probs, and is an inconsistent scorer. But he's the type of striker we've not had for ages, quick, runs the channels, and not frightened to shoot.
Gera, should have come when he went to Fulham. Never held a place down there and a good versatile option.
Reo Coker is a bit of an enigma. Was borderlnie England contention at one point. Now borderline League 1 contention. But good opportunity to play his way into a team with a weak centre midfield
Barnes, again struggled with injury but if fulfils potential is a very capable midfielder. Remember him running the game against us for Derby.

[Lord Kangana]

I think I epically failed with the joke there.

Anyhoo, am I right in saying that Barnes bossed a midfield that was selected by Megson?

[CAPSLOCK]

Chelseas Magnay won that SKY search for a star thing

[mullayo]

Spector - great bench player covers the back half of the field
Coker - can spell Holden and is improvement over Muamba
Gera - can midfield or right wing
Carew - was a great striker for years, can be again

If we get these four we only need another CB for Cahill or keep him and a fast striker.

[Bruce Rioja]

Tom Cruise from Arsenal, cos he's got a great name

He'll be suffering from a crisis of confidence. Anyone know a pretty girl?

[ohjimmyjimmy]

You'd think he'd know a good agent, wouldnt you !

[Eire_Trotter]

Would love Seb Larsson or James McFadden. Two very good wingers/strikers.

They would be decent back up. Agree about Spector and Reo-coker to.

[ohjimmyjimmy]

Danny Philliskirk has signed for Sheff Utd.

[TKIZ!]

Would love Seb Larsson or James McFadden. Two very good wingers/strikers.

Larsson having a medical at Soonderland

[Lofthouse Lower]

Big Sam confirms Hitzelsperger has left West Ham - worth a punt?
