Please don't talk in text speak, people will start moaning at you if you do.
Anyway, have you tried James Beattie? He was immense for me last year, but I doubt he will be this year.
I think you should look at Dave Kitson and Leroy Lita of Reading, and Lescott from Everton. liam Ridgewell is also worth a shout in defense in the future, as is Curtis Davis. If you can now bring players out of retirement, what about Paul Scholes? I don't personally think Pennant is good enough to play for England. Ameobi, a future star? He's not going to play at Newcastle, so he won't develop.

SWP definatly needs to be in the first team squad... and id definatly have alan smith in my team
take out kieren richardson for a start... and id consider taking wes brown out for woodgate or steven taylor....
i wouldnt play becks at rm now either... quite possibly as a one half wonder or maybe even as backup for cm position... i just think with the likes of swp, lennon and bentley or even gerrard .... he's redundant... especially with this game giving more imputous towards speedy players..
also , good shout on michael johnson... big big star to be
