Players too good for The Championship?

[tringo99]

Now that Birmingham, West Brom, and Sunderland have been relegated; which players do you think will be snapped up by the premiership clubs?

One player I think of is Pennant, and West Brom have Ellington. I can't think of anymore.

[etmoe]

heskey
forssell
upson
kanu
kamara
quashie

there are many

[narduch]

Nobody on Sunderland. They couldn't even beat the Vancouver Whitecaps.

[zaffo]

Cutis Davies and Gera from West Brom

LOL, nice one mate

Pennant is definitely the best of the bunch. He should "jump ship"

[eraser2224]

brum's dunne.

[seoulwolves]

Curtis Davies and Pennent. - Thats all

Even Heskey and Forsell IMO are not good enough for the Premiership these days. If they were then they would have kept Birmingham up.

As a Wolves fan I am delighted to see the Tesco bags (West Brom) and Birmingham go down, it means a guarenteed 12 points for Wolves next season. Your back where you belong Albion....

P.S For any non Brits who are wondering, West Brom and Wolves are local rivals. Both founder members of the first football league in the world, so I guess its one of the oldest derby's in world football...

[slipperydave]

but hasn't Forsell been injured a lot this season? And i remember reading somewhere (probably BBC) that Pennant will stay with Birmingham and repay the faith shown in him from Bruce. However, if a decent Premiership club come knocking, i can't see why he'd want to stay. He's definitely too good for the Championship.

And Heskey's definitely doesn't deserve to be in the Championship, League One's where he belongs!

Andy Johnson, I always thought he made a blunder chosing to play in championship this season and now he must regret it as their is a WC place up for grabs.

[godoffrauds]

It has to be Pennant.

Cutis Davies and Gera from West Brom

Absolutely!...I watched the whole West Brom Arsenal game and Davies was hugely impressive. I even saw him outpace Henry and perfectly take the ball away. He looks a great prospect.

Maybe Wenger will finally add an Englishman to the squad and buy him.:rolleyes:

That MAYBE is so unfortunate to be associated with arsenal.

[kuuze]

Jermaine Pennant...
Mika Forssell

[safcmark]

Julio Arca, George McCartney, Dean Whitehead, Liam Lawerence and Stephen Elliott are the only ones from Sunderland...think 2 or even 3 will be probably signed up by Premiership clubs in the Summer...hopefully not though

[bruce.cz]

Henderson, M.King, Ashley Young - from Watford, Johnson and Kiraly - from Crystal, Dave Nugent - from Preston, TYSON - from Nottingam Forest!!!, ..........and Paul Ince, Daren Anderton - from Wolves and Les Ferdinand..:-))

[harithfakhrudin]

pennant and curtis davies

No offence; but, your kidding right!?!?!

I think most Premiership reserve teams would not have room for those players.:o

Whitehead and Arca are quality players.
heskey
forssell
upson
kanu
kamara
quashie
there are many
Heskey no - he can't score; Forssell unsure - never fully fit; Upson yes; Kanu no - not as good as he was; Kamara no - flatters to deceive, fast and skillful but zero composure; Quashie NO! - NO!

[beergod]

if david dunn could stay fit he is too good for the championship in my opinion.

no...

Elliott and McCartney have been injured for alot of the season but have shown in the games they have played that they are good enough to play in the Premier League. Arca, hasn't been his best this season due to niggling injurys keeping him out for 2-3 weeks at a time, but due to our squad size we needed to rush the lad back. more than good enough to play in the Premiership....

Whitehead and Lawerence have been our only constant performers this season...the best out of a bad bunch; but easily would fit into another Premiership side....

obviousally not into the Top 4's side, so does this not count?

[Real JamesO]

I agree with safcmark, I think the best of Sunderland would fit into at LEAST bench players with mid-table teams.
