If you could add any three players to our team who would they be?

    In January our wealthy Chinese backer decides that we can add three players from any other Premier League club (maximum of one from any side in order not demoralise any team too much) who would you pick? Obviously every player would dream of playing for Southampton FC and jump at the chance immediately, especially after being smooth talked by Kruger.

    A leader at the Back, Gary Cahill.
    A decent RB/WB, Seamas Colemon.
    A tall strong CF, Marko Anoutavic

    1 Cahill would be available.
    2 Clynne is in need of regular football and we need a right back
    3 Mitrovic, strengthen our attack and deplete a rival.

    If we could get a fourth, would go for that Huddersfield chap, Mooy

    Cahill and Clyne (the latter probably on loan only - I doubt we could get him on a permanent deal) are both clear suggestions. And I'd go for Antonio for my third.

    (If I was allowed to break both rules, a go for a second player from the same club, and a fourth in total, it would be Hernandez. All four I'd suggest would be realistic.)

    I read it as the OakWizard expecting more fantasy...

    I’ll have Van dijk, De Bruyne and Kane please.

    Likewise! I thought the previous suggestions were a bit mediocre!

    I'd settle for any 3 lucky players because we have none at the moment.

    I suppose I’d settle for Gomez, Jorginho and Aguero if Fats’ picks were unavailable.

    To make it realistic, you should have added the proviso, max £10M each.

    As we are talking in the realms of magic, I'd like to visit three other positions.
    Owner, Chair, Manager.
