If Forster goes in the Summer who do you think Lennon will bring in? Fabianski (28) and Westwood (29) are out of contract in a couple of months. Fabianski has rejected Arsenal's offer and has some Champions League and Premier League experience. Do you think Alex McCarthy would be a possibility if Reading don't get promoted?
We also need another CB and a top ST. I would like to see Tony Watt back for next season and depending on the fee and likelihood, a bid for Danny Ings (if not Finnbogason).
1.) If, and it's a big if, Forster does go, I'd like to see an attempt made to bring back David Marshall; especially if Cardiff go down as expected.
2.) #1 target for me would be Kasper Schmeichel, although I feel he'll want another crack of the whip at the EPL with Leicester since he barely managed a string of games for City as a youngster. All we can offer him that they can't is the "possibility" of Champions League football. I would be too dissapointed if we signed Philipp Tschauner as FF's replacement either - 6ft 5in, managed about 10 clean sheets for St Pauli in 30 games this season. Plays like a sweeper keeper, always first out to any loose balls, corners, etc.
3.) David Marshall I would have. Said it on here before. Admittedly it may be a step sideways, or even backwards because I rate Forster that highly. Still, but not as much as Fabianski or Westwood would be. Ideally I'd like us to go for Maxym Koval (young keeper caught my eye for Dinamo Kiev), Handanovic (Inter reportedly ready to off-load), Ali Ahamada (Toulouse). Maybe even Pantillimon or Butland? A friend of mine who stays in Cologne through work raves about a keeper they have called Timo Horn. Supposedly considered the next star to come from between the sticks in Germany. There's no reason we shouldn't get a good fee for Fraser. Just hope it's reinvested properly. He could be a massive miss for quite some time if it isn't.
4.) @JimTim Timo Horn's a great young GK. He's been outstanding for Koln this season, they've got the best goals against record in Bundesliga 2 but they're on the verge of winning the league and promotion to the Bundesliga, so I reckon he'd fancy a crack at (in my opinion) the best + most competitive league in the world.
5.) Was there not talk about signing a GK from Argentina?
6.) Hamilton it's certainly my favourite leagur to watch (mostly just the highlights). It may not be so competetive at the very top but there's usually plenty of cracking scorelines. I still feel we should and can go for that calibre of young player though.

I'd like to see Schmeichel also, but can't see him coming to Scotland unfortunately. Wouldn't mind David Marshall.
8.) I could watch Bundesliga football all day long. Aye, Bayern have stretched away from the rest but below the Big Two the position's are anyones. Quality style, amazing pitches, cracking stadia's, cheap, standing, alcohol on sale, 50+1 rule. The reasons go on. In the last 11 years Bayern, Dortmund, Wolfsburg, Stuttgart + Werder Bremen have all won the top division. Teams like Kaiserslautern + HSV have went from European regulars to relegation battlers. It's a crazy league! Even the 2nd league is of great standard. I was over for the St Pauli v Greuther Furth game 2 wks ago, boring 2-2 draw lol. Then watched them away to Sandhausen last weekend, came from behind twice to win 3-2. Unreal.
HamiltonBhoy
9.) Wes Foderingham at Swindon
10.) Don't think FF will leave this year but if he does it will be David Forde coming in, short term solution.

Your brother may be getting confused with the fact that we have two qualifiers being played at Murrayfield. If we make it to the third then it's back at CP, if I'm not mistaken.
A replacement for Forster from Portugal or England.
