    Here are a few names I have come up with:
    Bernard Mendy-Free
    Attacking right back.3 caps for France.Out of contract in the summer.Age-26

    Alexander Frei-4m
    Experienced Swiss striker.Has a record of almost a goal every other game in Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga.Record goalscorer for his country with 32 goals in 56 games.Age-28

    John Pantsil-500K
    Right back.29 caps for Ghana.He's not had the best time of it at West Ham but I think he could definitley do a job for us.Age-26

    Christian Wilhelmsson-1m
    Ex-Andelecht and Roma winger.His career seems to have tailed off at Nantes and now Bolton.Will be available on the cheap if Bolton don't keep him.46 caps for Sweden.Pacy and tricky,he would add some nuch needed competition and cover on the wings.Age-27

    Young Pyo Lee-2-3m
    Proven full back at CL level.Heads and shoulders above Naylor.Juande Ramos might not fancy him at Spurs.Quality player with 93 caps for South Korea.Age-30

    Moustapha Riga-1.5m
    A tricky,pacy direct winger who can also play through the middle.He is by far Levante's best player.We could definitley get him as Levante are pretty much dead certs to get relegated this year.
    One problem is that there are Premiership clubs sniffing around and he has already stated his desire to play in that League.
    He'd be a quality addition IMO.Age-26

    Olof Mellberg-Free
    Has yet to sign a new contract and will be free in the summer if he decides not to.Experienced head with 77 caps for Sweden.There are rumours of Juventus sniffing about.Age-30

    Paul Konchesky-2m
    Could well leave Fulham if they get relegated.Good left foot and has 2 caps for England.Good,solid player.Fulham would have to get relegated for him to leave though.Age-26

    Moritz Volz-1m
    Nippy little right back who can also play on the right wing or in central midfield.Was a key part of Chris Colemans Fulham side but has been frozen out by Lawrie Sanchez.He is a cult hero at Fulham but has never been capped at international level for Germany.Age-24


    What do youse think?

    We were linked with Volz, Willhelmson and Konchesky last summer mate.

    What has happened to Willhelmson? Every time i saw him play for Sweden he was amazing.

    I'd take McFadden over Frei for the same price

    That's not to say i don't think Frei is a good player. Tbh, i've not seen a lot of him, but i think Faddy would be a great signing.

    We have been linked with every 1 of those players bar Lee at Spurs, strongly as well not just a wee column in the top hand corner of a tabloid chip wrapper.

    Well we definitely need to sign a full back and Moritz Volz could be a good fit. I always though he did quite well for Fulham under Coleman and now he has been frozen out of the first team since the 6 county hun Sanchez took over.

    I dont think celtic should sign McFadden. He does well in national matches but should we really pay an inflated price for someone who actually has failed to hold a regular place in a mid-table english club. I mean put any English team outside top 4 in a champions league group and they would drown faster than a kid. I think experience is needed... Although he is pretty hopeless when pressley came in last year i think it made a difference as that was what was needed for the spl.. maybe similiar situation will arise this year too... although if we progress in europe i would like to see a striker come in as killen is not good enough for me..

    my first choice would be toulouse striker johan elmander... he is establishing himself in the national team and i think his game would suit our style.
