Im in my third season atm with sunderland.
Sell as much dead weight as will go, oshea e.t.c
look to scotland, rb paterson is good from hearts, mcginn from hibs is a half decent mc, i would say douglas(brazil under 21s) on loan aswell as everton(brazil under 21s) on loan are really good fillers to then buy at end of season.
the only bigish money move i made was getting polli from ac milan for 5.5m on transfer list.
I also bought David Kownacki from Lech who comes good as backup for defoe.
Season One is really hard but as long as you stay in the premier league you will come good in season two, lots of dead weights on hefty contracts run out which clears out a lot of room.[FONT=arial, sans-serif-light, sans-serif] [/FONT]
