It's not all doom and gloom...

Johnson managed just under 60 appearances last season, Torres with a decent big bruising strike partner will suffer less I'm sure. Being isolated like his is in this formation means he's alone and being kicked all over the place. Give him a partner like Carew and I'm sure he'd improve.

Agger, well, yes, can't disagree there.

heskey?

heskey?

Saying that, I think Torres and Heskey could actually work

Heskey's ****. Carew, on the other hand, i rate. Didnt rafa have him at Valencia too?

Yes he did. I rate him highly and think he'd be perfect for Fernando.

I think we neither will nor should sell the bulk of the squad. But apart from the 7 mentioned by PTP plus Pacheco and Kelly, I wouldn't be especially arsed if any of the others were moved on.

Maybe MON can bring him with him.......bring Milner and Young to

I'd rather he just dropped them off, and then left.

You mean Real Madrid that sit at the top of their league?!

My post was extreme but my point is that we have a serious amount of cash locked up in our squad - so to say we couldn't make a few drastic changes because of a lack of money is wide of the mark in my humble opinion.

And re: Johnson. I admit I don't particularly rate him, he's flash going forward but makes far too many mistakes in defence for me.

yes that Madrid

They spend some 250m this year to get the CL and they went out in the second round...

Also they are still playing wobbly footy and if it wasn't for the spanish league they would be quite behind there as well.
