wouldn't say we are in desperate need for either 2 or 3 personally
Jurgen the German
Willie Hall
Cavani
Krul/Hugo Lloris/Vorm (don't mind which one)
Vertonghen
Moses
Plus decent cover for Ekotto and Bale.

If money were no object, then Falcao

I'm not sold on Remy tbh. Has a pretty average goalscoring record. Could be another Chamakh.

Chamakh has been broken by Wenger who haven't played to his strenght.
Fallen through yes, but not given much of a chance neither.
Remy for me is much better though, no surprise he's become a regular France international.
1 in 2 isn't that average, some score more in a "lesser league", but it's still decent if he has the qualities and attributes we need in our team. It's his versatility to play both up front alone or in a duo and being able to play out wide that makes him interesting for me. Buying a pure 9 I would also look elsewhere.
Suitable to our play, covers more than one position, and could be part financed by a Defoe sale.
It's a no brainer for me.

176 games 66 goals, I don't think that's too impressive considering it's the French League. I might be wrong about him.
goal stats don't tell half the story - what was Berbatovs record in Germany ? bet it wasn't more than 1 in 2 - what about Kezman, had nearly a 1 in 1 record in Holland but couldn't score in a brothel over here

yes because winning that accolade in a micky mouse league is definately going to prove that you got it all .
please......have you seen him play? say something substantial about him

if thats what you call solid ( i saw the same game) then i think we can do better.

Adebayor
Samba or Vertonghen
Moses
Leandro (even though i've only seen him once or twice).

He looked clumsy as fudge in that game to me. Tbh i'd say i've seen him maximum 3 times and he looked good in 1 of those games but i've bought into the hype.

you see this is the problem i have with this vertonghen thing
most of what you mention there is a by-product of good marketing, promotion, advertising, agent work and european league exposure
i will say one thing though...the reliability of what you hear and what you read is probably the most important thing out there. what have you heard and read and where or who was it from? i.e is your source someone that you think knows their stuff?
playing for his national side? how good are they? is he good enough to oust vermalen or kompany from the CB position? have they shoe horned him into the side somewhere?
another thing, in that united game he looked sluggish..i take it he hasnt really got pace? is he a reader of the game? if so why that many noticeable errors in the united game?
he looked a good ball player but thats not what we are primarily looking for is it?
i'm yet to hear or get pointed to anything concrete about this guy that says he's worth losing sleep over
right now i would have prefered BOTH samba and cahill to him. plus i bet both those players walk into the dutch national side
a ball playing CB is exactly what we're looking for ?

my thoughts exactly. it was like when people said we were missing out on Kuyt (i actually think he was very overrated and now he is very UNDER rated)...after seeing him with my own eyes i could have told you he wouldnt set the planet on fire..
i havent seen nearly enough of this vertonghen guy but practically no one here has either and people are going insane over him and it sounds a bit ...i hate to patronise the views of grown men cause its an opinion and its as valid as the next person...but this whole hooplah sounds like the kind of buzz you get from good movie trailers and other celebrities telling you to go out and watch a particular movie. its always best to get the review from someone you trust

Terry Yorath
Of course not. Modric covers that position.

why? why not just play thudd there then?
i thought we were looking for a vidic, a terry (prime), a kompany.
rocks that position themselves expertly and know how to marshal zones completely...and fudging own ariel balls from corners and set pieces and long kicks.
i want a guy that makes the back line seem like a wall.
i was under the impression thats what we were looking for..a leader or at the very least a beast
my guess is Kaboul is safe in his position and we are looking for a more Ledley esque partner for him
