john carew no thanks
carew is a big lump and he would have played with vicente at valencia. Also a move to brighton could be right up his street, or so it's been rumoured.
It has been suhggested that the spectaular signing will bea £5m rasted player and all the old namers posted would have been in their prime but other than Berbatov none would fetch that kind of fee now. It would need to be a name that is well known who is still playing at high level. Somebody in the Shane Long, Berbatov, Nichpolas Bendtner mould but a different type of player to CMS unlike Rhodes
Well with the arrival of Kuszak, Saltor, Bridge and now Vicente looking like that's all sorted. I don't believe we will be signing Darius Henderson or Simon Church any time soon, that would be somewhat of an anti climax to say the least...Going on the assumption that this "gem" signing will be a striker I will throw a couple of names in the hat.
Bobby Zamora,
Louis Saha,
Simon Cox,
John Carew,
Emile Heskey.
Craig Bellamy,
and the way things are going at the moment Del Piero.....now I know that sounds insane, but what constitutes a "gem"..."spectacular"....signing?...Anything is possible atm.
I still think Owen has legs
for me the only gem in this list is BZ - would be the icing on the cake
Hundreds
Lampard

Please tell me you just snook that one in? Or is it because he has a house in Ferring he must be signing?
Dame Judy Dench, she's to be our midfield general. You may scoff but it's as believable as any of the other names being bandied about on here
Yep, I can see that one happening Rowley - good shout.
The dream strike partnership up front?
Cannon and ball.
My sauces say Gus spent a lot of time at the panto last Christmas and liked what he saw.
