Re: do you want us to sign David Bentley?

I don't want Bentley - he's not fast enough and his goal tally isn't high enough for a position where we need more goals. If we're going to sign more forwards, they have to be of the Gerrard/Torres match winner calibre, rather than the Pennant/Kuyt/Benayoun/Babel "can do a job" variety.

I think money will be tight this summer and so I'd spend, in order of priority, on a left back and right back first. After that I'd fill the right midfield/attack slot, but then we also could use a top player in the Babel position too, as well as another top striker. We haven't got anything like that sort of cash so it's two full backs for me - and Bentley can stay at Blackburn or go to Everton or Newcastle, which are about his level.
