Joe MattockHalf of them wouldn’t come near the club,But Sure!
1 June 2012 at 8:21 pm #88553Of the realistic ones, I’d say Cuellar would be a decent acquisition as back up – but I doubt he’d sign on that basis. I also think Ricardo Fuller could do a decent job, but again, I doubt he’d play second fiddle to Di Santo.
Don’t know what sort of salaries they’d be looking for either, and looking down that list there’s some big earner on there.
On another note, there’s a closing down sale at Ibrox. Stevie Naismith would be a decent replacement for Hugo and Steven Whittaker is a good rightback/ wingback.

Beausejour
– (1) JA Riise (Fulham) – not on your list (possibly, McFadden)Caldwell / Alcaraz
– (1) Scharner (i.e. the ‘old’ Paul Scharner(UNLIKELY !)) or equivalentDi Santo
– (1) Fuller+ 1/2 ‘star’ signings (excl. GK)

I don’t think we’d be able to afford Riise’s wages.
Scharner now regards himself as a midfielder and wouldn’t consider lowering himself to come back to lowly Wigan.
1 June 2012 at 11:10 pm #88577wouldnt have sharner back another knob thought he was bigger than the club and went to that massive club of clubs west brom(does sound like liverpool,arsenal)
1 June 2012 at 11:22 pm #88578I’ve always thought Danny Guthrie was a decent player.
1 June 2012 at 11:51 pm #88583Craig Gordan – back-up for Ali (pay as play deal with his injuries)
Carlos Cuellar – back-up for Boyce. Plus can play centre half seen as Gohouri is being released.
Michael Owen – same as point 1 really (about the injury thing!) but still probably a bit ambitious for us
Keith Andrews – again to add a bit more competition.
The rest for me, are either not good enough or wouldn’t sign for us in a month of sundays.
1 June 2012 at 11:52 pm #88584I’ve always thought Danny Guthrie was a decent player.You beat me to it HB. he must only be in his mid twenties now and looked a great prospect at Liverpool.
I always thought he was a quicker, more workman like Jason Koumas. :woohoo:
From Matlock to ManU
What a journey! -
