Unforseen circumstances. - We have no players at all for the new season

[Sirius]

OK Folks, I appreciate that this IS a non starter. Bide with me,, I have no idea, not having seen our Blades for too long.

If we had to start from scratch, with no players signed. Having regard to our projected budget and the skills of Nige and his staff, just who would you sign up for next season for a top finish?

Remember that we have no players to start with, that includes our own.

If this sounds like football manager, please understand I am looking for a squad to take us up..UTB

Long nights over there in NZ are they Sirius ?

 

[Bladepicker]

I'd probably go with Wolves' team.

They seem to have done ok.

 

[SotonBlade]

Best way to do this is create a modified FM database with no players...

 

[Damski]

Messi, Ronaldo and Ibrahimovich up front.

Unless you want to put a spending limit on this, in which case I'm not playing.

 

[sitwell]

Don't pick Jordan Stewart or Willie Falconer.

Don't pick Jordan Stewart or Willie Falconer.

Give Jordan Stewart a break - the guy brings unpredictability to the side.

And by unpredictability I mean you never know whether he's going to register a 9 or a 10 on the wankometer. There's no way of guessing.

Callum Wilson (Coventry) & Conor Wickham (various). If we had to start from scratch, the £5m we would surely get for 'arry would cover those 2.

 

[Woodwardfan]

I think the way to look at this would be to study which players have contracts beyond next summer and are not wanted.

Of those, I'd say Brandy, Taylor?, McGinn, Porter, McGinty, .Miller?, should leave.

ATT
Porter

Starting from scratch and you're picking Chris Porter? I assume you're Danny Wilson.

Or Chris Porter.

Or Chris Porter.

We're also talking realistically. You can't just sign messi

Well from what has happened so far where every player NC has brought in with the one exception of Paynter has appeared to be better than the ones we have, I'm prepared to sit back and just watch.......

Over to you Nigel .....
