The average age of players bought this summer for us rounds up to 24.7

What a difference a friedel can make, eh?

Diarra, Ade and Vucinic + Samba/Cahill would be a top, top summer.
If we get Rossi or Aguero then we'll be PL challenger

Nothing more regarding Arturo Vidal?

Expect another Striker on top of Coulibaly!
Pav, Defoe and Crouch will all be here come september 1st unless we get a ridiculous offer...
Bassong rejected Wolves...
Will move for Samba if Bassong goes
Adebayor willing to take a pay cut and join us...This should happen if Real get Neymar

Cheers CM, so this striker is Adebayor, or is there another on top of him?

As someone who predicted that there was no way we would sign Coulibaly I just like to say that there is absolutely no chance of us signing Falcao, Aguerro or Vidal :pray:.

That makes no sense. Why would hold onto 5 forwards (if we consider VDV as one) especially as we have too many players, as is. Are we just going to drop one or two from the 25 man roster?

If Pav, Defoe, and Crouch are all expected to be here come September 1st surely we're expecting just 1 incoming striker, which would appear to be a choice between Vucinic and Adebayor

You spelt Aguero wrong. Now we're signing Aguerro. :bang:

I mean if we are waiting on real before going for Ade then it looks like a last minute thing, so I take it he isn't the 'by Friday' striker?

Sound depressingly plausible. Though if we can get either of those I'll be happy.

I like this news but say if we get either Vucinic/Adebayor and one of them gets injured we could potentially be back to looking toothless up front again.

Just like that we could potentially go from really looking like a top 4 team to a top 6 team which is pretty bad really, that losing one player could possibly have that affect.
