YankeeinMadrid Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Michael Bradley please. And Kevin Prince Boateng. Two solid young players for maybe 10m total. They could start as squad players and work their way into the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beasley14 Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 KP Boateng has impressed me in this tournament, hes got very good feet. A touch selfish sometimes but hes got the ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich_D Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Michael Bradley has been mentioned before. First time i have sen him properly. Looks to have good vision, good touch, good passing and a great engine. Natural replacement for Petrov 11/12, bled into the side 10/11, i think so. I would rather Ireland than KPB but still a very good player that looks to have enthusiasm to play unlike some other money grabbing youngsters, great feet, pacey and looks to have bags of potential. Bradley, Ireland, KPB, Richards are on my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewavfc Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Yeah KPB has been impressive so far this tournament and by all accounts was the brightest thing about Pompeys very poor season. Annan will surely be moving to a bigger club than Rosenborg, this summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Hierro Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Prince Boateng yes, please. Good game tonight, developing into a great player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasevilla Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Thank christ your not in charge! 80 premier league goals or something like that, if we sign a better striker than him, I'll be amazed I see you were listening to Harry Redknapp last night Its 78 by the way. Anyway, seeing as you are such a big Yakubu fan you will no doubt know how many goals he has scored in the last two seasons. Now not being a fan myself I had no idea I just knew it wasn't many, so I checked. What I found really wasn't very impressive; 2008-2009 17 games 5 goals 2009-2010 31 games 5 goals Not the sort of scoring recorded that gets me excited or hoping that Martin gets the cheque book out for personally. In fact, I believe Heskey managed 5 goals last season as well. So I'm struggling to see any basis at all why Yakubu would be a good signing unless its on the basis of form from 2007-2008 which I would hate to see us sign someone on. And its still more than Heskey No thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olof'sAcorn Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I think if we wanted Prince Boateng we should have bought him before the WC, surely his price would have doubled after his performances so far. Looks a very promising player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion-heart Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I must admit KPB imressed me tonight. Good athelete, good size, good distribution. Maybe our answer for Central Mid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could start as squad players and work their way into the side. If you think we're getting Michael Bradley that cheap you're nucking futs my friend. Contracted until the end of July 2012 and pretty much essential to 'Gladbach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sir_gary_cahill Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 We all know about your opinions. you think his general play is good enough? I certainly don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Yep, he's got a great engine and does all the dirty work. He's a true box to box midfielder, his passing can be a bit suspect but give him a role where he doesn't need to try such passes and he'd shine. I'd bring him in as a replacement for Sidwell and NRC, and a long term partner for Delph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GypsyKing Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Boateng has impressed me aswell. Portsmouth need any money they can get, his value won't increase despite his contribution to Ghana's qualifiction. For 6-8 million we could probably get the player Sidwell should have been.
