This is a list of players I believe will be good signings for saints.
Adam Johnson- kind of player we are lacking to play on the right after Puncheon left, on his day can bag you a few goals plus he isn't afraid to shoot which sometimes I feel some of oyr players are afraid todo
Hooper - Norwich, I have watched him closely this season and ill be the first to admit that I didn't want him at saints but watch him I can see that he has that eye for goal that we need plus isn't afraid to try for tight areas. Or just go for goal from distance. That relys on norwich going down tho, which I think they will if fulham win next weekend.
Caulker - Cardiff, again been impressed with him since he has been playing in a team leaks goals, but he has been a stand out player for me.
and finally a goalkeeper.
Ter stegen, or forster. either would do but I do believe we lack quality in goal if boruc can't play.
Have a good one and up the saints
For me:
Samuel Umtiti - Lyon
He's been their strongest defender this season and is still under 20. He's fast, strong and has a good understanding with Lovren.
Ayoze Pérez - Tenerife
A young & talented forward who has scored 16 goals in 28 games in the Spanish Segunda division. He is also very skillful and plays like Jay Rodriguez.
I agree with most, not 100% sure about Hooper, as he is on a hell of a goal drought at the moment, but obviously he can score goals and would have better service here then he'll get at Norwich, I agree that Adam Johnson would be a great signing, as we have few wide attacking player without Lallana and Jay, we could then rotate more too, for me as we have a lot of AM's playing well in the under 21's we could see a lot more academy players step up than we expect next season, for example Isgrove has been in and around the subs all season, and McQueen has been brought on against Sunderland in the cup, not to mention Omar Rowe and Jake Sinclair who have played very well and are highly regarded young players, so I'm not sure we need wingers. I think if we did we should go for someone like Xerdran Shaqrie (maybe to ambitious) and for CB Caulker would be a good signing but Mateo Mussachio would take us to the next level! A goalkeeper is key, I agree Forster would be a good solid addition although I still really like Jack Butland!
Forster - solid
Shawcross - solid
Hunt - free
Hernandez - proven
On the sad side I reckon that Spider and Clyne will go. Hope not but that transfer dealing will be cost neutral.
If we then manage to sell Dani then Cresswell as LB back up and and Byram at RB back up. McCormack would be a chance to take also.
Caulker
Richards (as center half)
Hernandez
Plus any cover that we need if key players leave.
