Bosmans for next season

[Maldini]

So it looks like we'll have to shop in the bargain bin again next summer, but are there many good players we can pick up for free?

 

The only ones I know of are Goran Pandev, Milan Jovanovic and Adam Johnson.

 

Pandev has been linked with Inter and Jovanovic with AC. Both would be a pretty good option for when Torres isn't in the team and both can play in the Gerrard role too.

 

I really rate Johnson, he may not be a world beater, but he'd be a good squad member, a kind of left sided Milner. He has an eye for goal too. We could let Riera go for a decent fee and use the money for something else.

[Stevie H]

could see pandev staying in serie a if inter are in for him, since the exchange rate and income tax are going to affect how easy it is to attract bosmans to england.

 

i've really liked the look of johnson every time i've seen him, seems to have a brain about him as well.

[carrafan]

Think Boro might sell Johnson in Jan if he doesnt sign a new deal which might mean that we'll probably have to make a bid to get the player. There'll be plenty of suitors who'd be ready to pay 5 million +, i reckon.

 

We can talk to Pandev in Jan itself which is good, but if he's made up his mind to join Inter, there's little anyone can do about it.

Think Boro might sell Johnson in Jan

An absolute definite. Decent player and would do as cover.

[Andy @ Allerton]

David Beckham, Michael Owen, Rio Ferdinand..

[Rich Gobey]

Strachen might look to raise a few quid if he wants to re-shape his team.

Poor NYR, shame on you maldini, you stole one of his annual threads

Slim pickings this year also. Dammit, dammit. I love a good Bosman, me.

tell you what... just post this yourself and pretend you didnt see it!

[Maldini]

Dunno about that NYR, the three mentioned above are better than anything available last summer. There must be more too.

[New York Red]

Time to start digging for them Maldini! I'll get to work.

[Raj]

Joe Cole's contract is still up for renewal, although I would expect that he will sign another with Chelsea

probably holding out for the result of Chelseas appeal against their transfer ban, if that gets upheld he can ask for a f***ing fortune. and get it too.

[The Hitman]

Cole would never leave Chelsea.

Not a chance in hell.

[Hieronymus Bosch]

The only ones I know of are Goran Pandev, Milan Jovanovic and Adam Johnson.

She's gorgeous - well worth getting on a free.

[john_lfc]

Adam Johnson would be a good signing

 

Impressed me this season
