    I could probably win the EPL League 2 with the surplus from that lot ballcock. We are certainly going to have to shift a few that's for sure.

    How huge is huge ? Spurs paid 35 million for Van De Ven after he'd played just 30 odd games for Wolfsburg. On that basis I wouldn't even be talking to them for less than 40 million.

    I've counted up at least 17 players who need offloading, there just not going to make it in the EPL.

    But that is not adding into the mix that were still woefully short up top. Foster is useless, Barnes is finished, and Flemming has done well but isn't really a striker. I still haven't changed my mind that we need 2 strikers or we have no chance of staying up. You have to ask the question, where are the goals coming from?

    I'd also be a little concerned about the middle of park, we need a replacement for Brownhill. Also, can't see Laurent cutting it in the Prem.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not too disappointed with the business we have done so far. But the key word is ''So Far'. Make no mistake about it, We're still very light of what we need IMO

    Like SD often said C.C. We are currently a work in progress.
