I was thinking after many convo's who and where do we need to strengthen if we are to be in the higher division and suceed, below is my list with who they will replace.
Some of the players mentioned will require Big wages but no fee involved might make it possible.
If the style of football we play is going to work in the championship, were going to need that higher calibre player as far as im concerned and the slow players and dodgy ones will get punished alot more by the higher class attackers.
1. Joe Lewes GK - 1 million (Peterborough) Rave reviews for the ex England U21 lad, who attracted attention from a host of prem clubs, any lack of promotion from the borough this season and surely he will be on his way- Ankergren - shaky in league one, no way any higher thank you.
2. Ian Harte LB - £500k (Reading) former leeds man looks quality still, offers pace and steady football brain - Painter looks slow and methodical, will get caught too much higher up the pitch and be punished. Bench for Painter.
3. Lua Lua - Winger - Free (Newcastle) Poyet's made no secret about his feelings for the lad and will slot in on either wing or in a role behind the front 2 - Noone will bench warm if Lua Lua's back, but a great bench warmer to have.
4. Lee Bowyer - CM - Free (Birmingham) The tough tackling nutter Lee is soon to be available on a free with no doubt most of the championship on high alert for his services, will offer expiereince and grit that were currently missing - Sparrow - Not quite happened for him, looks good when fit, but ow many games has he been fit? Bench for the Sparrow..hopefully fit though.
5. Craig Mackael Smith - £1.5 Million - ST - (Peterborough) Skillful, fast, works and chases lost causes for 90 minutes and is proven at a higher level....15 last time out for Peterborough in the championship. Would partner Mr Murray up front -Ashley Barnes - is coming on leaps and bounds but for me the step up would be too much too soon.
6. Chris Wood - 300k - ST ( West Brom) Woods had to work hard at his game and the tough steam roller type target man is so much more than what we currently have, a fully fit wood is a player we will need.
