And davek I'm going to choose to ignore the crack against American ale house teams.

1. Sell all the deadwood for reasonable prices. (Yakubu, Bily, Vaughan, Anichebe, Yobo, Turner, Mucha? Heitinga?)
2. Keep Fellaini and Baines and get them on new contracts.
3. Sign a goalscorer who isn't crippled with the money from the above.
4. Raid the relegated clubs for a pacy winger to play in front of Coleman/Hibbon/Nev.
5. Bring some of the youngsters into the first team and give them some game time (Silva, Gueye, Baxter, Duffy, Barkley, Mustafi? Dier if we get him permanently)
6. Some challenging pre-season games.
7. Start the season in August.
Oh and sack our surfer dude fitness coaches if haven't already, and replace them with some real coaches including at least one attacking coach.

Keep Fellaini and Baines. Sign atleast two new attacking players ready to go straight into the side.
I'm not as keen as the rest to sell Heitinga. If we can get his head in the game he can be an assett. He was one of our best players when he got going last year.
Yak, Yobo and Vaughan already feel like they've left, and it's for the best in each case. Bilyaletdinov should go as well. Would be nice if a russian bidding war kicked off to drive his price up to something close to what we paid for him. Any offers above £5m should be considered though. I'd let Anichebe go if anyone wants him. We should only sell Rodwell if we're offered silly money. £17m~'s the approximate tipping point, for me.
Apart from the attack the rest of the side doesn't need much improvement, so with our resources in mind I'd have a look round the loan market for a pair of full backs. One to hopefully challenge for a first team spot at right back and another to give us some back-up if Baines goes down with an injury (which he's well overdue when you look at how many games he plays).
Obviously if Mucha goes we'll need a back-up keeper for atleast a year. Kieren Westwood sounds a good option, would be nice if we could get him in with the minimum fuss and expense.
Yakubu, Yobo and Pienaar must have been on about £120k a week between them, at least? I'm sure Bily isn't on peanuts either. Hopefully shedding a few high earners gives Moyes some room for manouevre.
It all sounds so simple when you write it down like that...

Kyle Naughton's been named at right back in the PFA Championship Team of the Year. Just like he was the year we went in for him. Wonder if he'd be available cheaper now than he was then.
Just saying, like.

Hahahahahaha...
What a moron.
I mean really. Really?
What an assclown.
Let me guess. Ajax, Anderlecht, or Galatasaray? Cause THOSE teams will really give us "proper" preparation. Let me guess. You saw an MLS game once?
Your lack of football knowledge is coming close to Halewood Blue's and that's saying something.

Bless you. I was trying to stay away cause I was only going to get mad. Oh, and by the way, the "good" teams that we're supposed to play against? Guess who they are playing? Oh yeah - those ale house teams too.
For a guy who is after his board due to finances you'd think he'd want the money from an American tour. But you know, there's always teams in Thailand.
