Alright then, let's see what happened at Reading over the last couple of sessions :cool:
Transfers In
Didier Zokora (Tottenham) p/ex
Emil Hallfreosson (Tottenham) p/ex
Eddie Johnson (Kansas) £950k
Manuel Almunia (Arsenal) £1m
Marek Suchy (Slavia Prague) £275k
Antony Gardner (Tottenham) £1m
Daniel Kolar (Slavia Prague) £625k
Leandro Lima (Sao Caetano) £3.4m
Chris Eagles (Man Utd) - Loan
Total: £7.25m
Transfers Out
Steve Sidwell - Tottenham - p/ex
Ulises de la Cruz - Cruz Azul - £450k
Graeme Murty - West Brom - £675k
Simon Cox - Crewe - £1.3m
Ibrahima Sonko - Lens - £2.4m
Stephen Hunt - Watford - £1.5m
Glenn Little - Portsmouth - £2.5m
Total: £8.75m
Not a bad bunch of transfer activity I don't think. I wasn't actively looking to sell Sidwell, but with Tottenham sniffing around I tempted them into releasing two of their players to me whom I was interested in. A goalkeeper was my priority, and luckily the Arsenal boss let me have Almunia for a cut-price.
Only started out with £1.3m to spend, then the chairman requested I get a top class player, so I splashed out on Leandro Lima. Hopefully he'll do the business for me. Eddie Johnson is my ideal cheap target man, while Gardner takes the place of sold Sonko. A couple of scout-recommended Czechs polished off the spending, with a little left over from sales for later.
The lineup should be looking something like this;
GK: Almunia
DR: Halford
DL: Shorey
DC: Gardner
DC: Ingimarsson
MC: Zokora
MR: Kolar
ML: Seol
AM: Lima
FC: Johnson
SC: Doyle
Bring on the next session :cool:
