Max Johnstone isn’t giving up champions league football to sit on our bench.

More or less agree with you Bluerunner. Big rebuild job needed.

If Dowell could stay fit then i'd be tempted to keep him for back up to be honest.

Also bring in Watson and maybe also Armstrong from Killie.

And not bothered with Sima, I don't rate him and think he will be too expensive.

Few interesting names mate, but we have a ready made tav replacement already- Sterling. Clement has shown he doesn’t see him as a Cm as he prefers players better on the ball.

Blue and how do u intend to fund this.

Good question John. The rumoured £25m won't go that far so many of these guys are out of contract. I know costs still involved but with selling a good few and reduction in wages I would hope we have it covered. also a good few others only have 1 year left so hoping savings involved there.

Out of contract - Liam Kelly, Ben Johnson/ Jaydon Bogle, Jefte, Scott McKenna, Paddy McNair, Andrian Kraev, Callum O'Hare, Misehuoy, Anis Hadj Moussa, Chris Wood, Oli McBurnie.
Owen Beck is a loan.
1 year left - Leopold Querfeld/ Riechedly Bazoer/ Jonathon Panxzo, Lennon Miller, Kajetan Szmyt, koki Saito.

Wishy - I would agree that Sterling is a great player for us. I suppose it comes down to where Clement sees him.
Ally - IF Dowell can stay fit - I believe there is a type of player who is comfortable stepping away at the slightest niggle. Dowell falls into this category for me. Alongside a good few others.
If Johnstone not an options I would like to see Anis Jasic brought in.

Where do the funds come from?, we have also started upgrading the stadium!, which will cost a bit.
As for Devine, King, Lowry, sorry but if they have not broken into first team by now, I would let them go and continue their career elsewhere, just my opinion.

And what about euro squad quotas not many Scottish or home grown players left.

Bluerunners Sales would bring in £15million (without Butland) . I am sure the Club could add a few Million to this thereby giving us a Healthy Transfer Budget.

John27, with the 12/ 13 he would sell the 5/ 6 being released 25 million you said we have to spend would be a start. The guy knows he's we ain't gona get all them, but put a lot of thought into his post. Good post blue.

John it is very much fantasy football. I wouldn't expect all to happen but just sharing for sake of conversation.
I work in banking so can't say I have any experience with football management or negotiations.

This sounds like football manager to me.

Interesting someone rates dowell who has done next to nothing in rangers strip but doesn’t rate sima strange bunch our fans.

John of course it is, but as I said I'm sure he's not thinking it's going to happen, just what he would like to happen.
