Surely buying lots of their squad makes sense this transfer window...they are usually quick, strong, skilful...all the traits that the Premier League requires! With the African Nations not getting in the way anymore this season, surely this is the way to keep Stoke up.
Harewood would also do fine.
Ledley...$7 Million is ridiculous money. $3M plus add on's based on staying up is as far as i'd go. Remember that if we go down he'll want to leave us too.

if we went down & Ledley was sold what we get for him?
assuming he'd made an impact we would prob get our money back
if he does fuck all then we wont

Sorry lads, I live in America and this is the only curency they let us use!
We get most games on TV or Broadband here so I get to keep up on how they play....although thankfully yesterdays wasn't!
Sidibe: who'd have thought he'd be the key player in the Prem?!
For me, here's Stoke's team:
Sorenson
Need right back if possible and if Davies isn't the man
Abdoulaye
Shawcross
Higgo
Lawrenson + quicker right winger
Salif
Amdy + better player (quicker and stronger with skill) than Whelan as attacking sub
Delap + quicker left winger
Sidibe
Fuller + quick goalscorer to sub for one of Riccy or Mama

We need to start purchasing more players from directly abroad, not simply foreigners already in England. No doubt there'd be better deals to be had rather than £7 million Ledley. Africa being the ideal place.

From that list it looks like a few at French clubs who would easily want to come here and show there stuff in the Prem. Even if we are 3rd bottom at the mo, a word from Abdy and Salif would go a long way.
I have found our salvation...one that is hopefully cheaper than British-based players and one that fit's TP's mould of player!

we need a right back not a left back, griff is better on the left than right and has improved drasticly this season. higgy to centre with big abdy.

Fair point...but Higgy has done well as left back (attacking and defending) and with AB and Ryan forming a decent center back partnership, for me it's a right back...again only if Davies proves not to be the man.
BTW, to clarify, Sonko is the only Senegalese I don't want!
Also, with Camara being mooted as coming to Stoke (and hopefully Wigan recalling King from Hull!), there's another one!
