Notice how all these are jocks and none of them are exactly old.

Oh, I'd keep Samaras too and bring in at 1 or 2 centre halfs.
I would agree about the pair of feltchers. Darren would be worth anything up to a 4-5 million punt (think thats our max anyway) but the EPL is terrible value for money and I can see some lowly EPL team offering double that.

Stevie I think looks a great prospect but will most fans except spending loads on a young player who we wont see the best of till his 2nd season? The attitude to Scott Brown (which I think is unreasonable) suggests not Personally I am all for buying young for thinking of the future rather than immediate return so If we are really in the money with say 20 million to spend (e.g if Artur goes) then yeah I would splash broon type money for him.

In reality I dont think we will be buying either. I think we will be looking mainly at eastern Europe, the best value market within the EU and without visa problems. Talking of visas, wonder if we will have another crack at that American goalie who is meant to be something special.
