The only ones I think he'd be interested in and try for are Gallas, Dawson, Huddlestone, Naughton and Assou-Ekotto. Quite likely to get a couple of them too.

I can't see us selling Defoe in January unless we sign another striker (or two). Leaving us with just Ade would be an act of gross stupidity.

Which means it might actually happen ;)

I can see Dawson going but that's it.

Can only see Dawson going there to be honest.

I am fairly certain Harry will turn them around to be fair as well. Good luck to him, just not too much luck. I think he will be in his element as he will have the money to do the deals he wants. Should the chairman back him, I do think that he will turn them into a decent team.

Rather depends if Harry's succeeded in turning things around by then, doesn't it? No-one's going to sign for an outfit headed for the nether regions.

Surely there is no way we will sell Parker. One of our best players last year. Would be so stupid. Hopefully just daws and maybe Defoe.

It also works the other way round. Harry win be twitching to sell some of their players.

Who would we buy from them?

2 most realistic ones i think are Dawson and Livermore. Would be good signings for QPR too.

More importantly, I think we should all have a sweepstake on how many times over the course of the seaon H reminds us that QPR had 4 points from 12 games when he took over. I'm going for 36 which is quite conservative I think, given that he's already started and he's not even their manager yet....

Harry might consider making bids for Dawson(anything above 7M we should accept) Defoe(is an interesting one depends who we can get if not should stay) aswell as Parker(we should keep) Naughton/Rose.

Hudds, Defoe, Dempsey, Jenas, Bentley, Rose, Dawson, Gallas, Freidel and Cudd's, he is welcome to them all really.

That should give us plenty to add to any kitty we have.

But then Levy always gives our manager a kitty, but it just never gets used.

Really? AVB has shown a hell of a lot of faith in Defoe so far (whether by choice or not is another question though) and he was firmly a second choice striker under Redknapp's reign. I reckon he must be pretty happy here at the moment.

AVB had no other option initially, then it is really hard to drop a striker that is scoring, especially Defoe, who his whole career has always scored in spouts and then been dry for a while afterwards.

Defoe has value at the moment and for someone like QPR he could be worth £10m+ which is the last time we'll ever be able to get anything close to that for him.
