Keane is a good player and goalscorer so would be a good addition to any team but I would personally rather keep Crouch. Voronin can go unless he can play like he did before he got injured last season and I am not sure where Stewart Downing would fit in if he signed for the club, unless they got rid of Pennant and who would you rather have, Pennant or Downing? They are both England internations and there is little to choose between either of them really. I can't see us signing that many people because we don't always tend to spend a lot of money over the summer, which is a shame as its nice to see new faces at the club, especially if the gel with the team and make us a better outfit in general. I think as long as we can kill games off we should be ok. We need that killer instinct and last year we drew far too many games.

Due to my Dad being a Wolves fan I've followed Robbie Keane's career since his first professional game and he's always been amongst my favourite non-LFC players. Funnily enough so is Gareth Barry. Of course that's a million miles away from them being the best signings for us. I think Barry will offer a bit more spark than Alonso, but my big concern is for the quality of pass coming out of the midfield area. If Barry can measure up to Alonso in this regard - sign him, but it's a big ask to equal our best passer of a ball since Molby. I'm pretty sure now we're keeping Voronin. So it looks like Barry, a cheapish winger, and a back-up striker are our remaining buys. All in all not the most inspiring summer, but then are we really that far away? IF Ronaldo leaves United that's 40 goals they need to find next season. Chelsea are in flux - great signings coming in, but again potential a big loss if Drogba heads for Milan. Arsenal are yet to move, and you'd assume Villa will be weaker without their captain. Excellent.
