What do EPL teams NEED?

As a more important and immediate 'need'...

Premiership teams NEED, for the sake of football as a whole (in this country) to remain in the least bit healthy, to stop being so damn greedy and give the lower leagues some of their undeserved billions. The myopia shown here by the powers that be, is disgusting.

That's what they need to do.
Not what you were looking for, but still true nonetheless - and I was in small rant mode.

They can all implode under the weight of their suffocating sense of self-importance as far as I'm concerned.

 

Spurs - A new manager. Hoddle is a twat. He couldn't tactically outwit a carrier bag and he has the man-management skills of a baboon.

 

WOW!
QPHa nutter on a rant and he didn't once mention us or the 6....good show fella.

 

Oh...and by the way

CHELSEA.

midfielders (2)
Defensive/ball winner
Left sided

Full back.
Right side.

 

NEWCASTLE

Please lord let us stop buying midfielders and buy a couple of good full backs.

ALL ABOARD THE DON'T SELL SOLANO TRAIN WHOO WHOO

 

EVERTON - 2 or 3 midfielders and a left back.
Also, we need to get rid of small part players with big salaries, Ferguson and Alexanderson for example.

 

Well...

Don't know if this counts, but what about more Prem clubs using American stars on part-time basis??? McBride was great for Everton, in fact, he scored in his 1st match...against Tottenham @ White Hart Lane.

Arsenal...younger GK was long overdue.

Liverpool...a true striking partner for Owens, NOT scoring occassionally by committee.

 

Re: Well...

I'm not sure the EPL needs another lot of foreigners. If the yanks are good enough (and cheap enough!) they'll be signed.

 

the epl needs more south americans and less crap scandinavians who got no technical skills whatsoever.

maybe then the epl will be able to challenge la liga as the top league in the world but til then la liga has the most skilled players.

 

For the last time - you simply cannot shoehorn players that don't suit the style/temperature/whatever, into sides. It doesn't work like that.
Scandinavian players come here for a number of reasons - players from other parts of the world with different playing styles go elswhere by and large. As hot temperatures adversely affect players used to colder temperatures - the same can be said the other way round.
If the whole pf the Brazilian and Argentinian football playing talent was brought over here, there's absolutely no evidence to suggest that anything would be improved. We'd just have a load of freezing cold Brazilians playing on semi frozen pitches on New Years Day. I don't care how supposedly God like they are, if you're not used to it - you won't play well.
English teams buy the players they think will do them good - you do see that don't you? If they truly considered that shipping in numerous Brazilians would help - don't you think they'd do it?

 

Bolton: Striker and central defender.

 

Spurs:

A clue...

 

Man U: New, top class GK (preferably under 28yrs old), backup CB, Ronaldinho, Right mid (bye bye Beckham, we'll enjoy the 30mn we get for your overrated ass)

 

Blackburn=A tough central defender, right sided midfielder and possibly a striker and cover for right back.

 

I wonder if Tim Howard might be just that.

 

Would any of them swap Rio for Wolverhampton?

 

WOLVES: A defender, a midfielder, and a striker all with experience in the Prem and who can add to our depth. A healthy Kenny Miller and Joleon Lescott in time for Blackburn would also help.

 

Absolutely not! Thornton is better than Howard. Perhaps the only reason Zach is not in France is because Beasley, Bocanegra, and Armas are there for the Fire already.

 

I'd say Leicester City could use a second keeper, a few defenders with speed and strength, a hard-tackling defensive midfielder, a couple of good wings, and two forwards who can put the ball in the net. Leicester can also use the 50 million pounds it would take to buy all of these players.

 

So a new squad then. Ciccio Grabbi Craig Hignett and Alan Mahon are available, and Keith Gillespie's on a free, possibly to Man Citeh though.

You're getting Hasan Sas though, aren't you ?.

 

Riiiiiiiiight.

 

I honestly have no clue why that even became a rumor.

 

Uh, no. I like Thornton, too, but he is not nearly as good on low shots, and doesn't have anything close to the agility he once had.

But Thornton could kick the crap out of Howard in a fight, I'll grant you that.
