Bolton boss Gary Megson is prepared to play a waiting game and will not rush into making any 'stupid' summer signings.Megson is planning to bring in the players that will ensure the Trotters are not involved in a relegation battle next season.

Toulouse striker Johan Elmander, out-of-favour Sporting Lisbon frontman Simon Vukcevic, Inter's Luis Jimenez and Hertha Berlin's Marko Pantelic are all names that have been linked with Bolton

Megson told the Evening News: "We've got our targets we would like to bring in over the course of the summer.

"But initially you will find the really huge clubs will get their business done, because finance isn't an issue for them. They just get what they want.

"Then it goes quiet throughout June, before it starts to pick up a little bit with players who might not be available now becoming available in two months' time.

"It's not a case of it being tough, you just want to get in the best players you possibly can.

"But we are a football club that doesn't do stupid things. It's not just a case of getting them in at any cost, because then it doesn't become a good deal."
