I have severe reservations about Reguilon's defending. The guy could get eaten alive in the PL. Yes, he could give us something going forward, but only if we have a midfield that could find him in space. And our midfield is a creative vacuum.

We have already gone and signed a right-back that looks like he can't defend. I don't want a left-back in the same mould.
We already have a left back that can't defend so at least Reguilon offers something in an attacking sense.
 
There's risks like Bergwijn

And there's risks like Sorloth, 1 good season in a sub standard league after 4 consecutive shit seasons. 2 in our league. 2 in a league that has provided good and shit strikers to england in the past. Whats the strike rate of turkish league players being a success in england like?

I've never been so negative about a signing since Janssen who like Sorloth had 1 good season and many crap ones prior.

Janssen: Which "many crap" seasons are they?

He was 22 when we bought him:

2013–2015 Almere City
69(LgApp) > (29G)
2015–2016 AZ
34(LgApp) > (27G)
 
Andrea is a girl's name:mourfacepalm:
Striker partner for Alex?

For argument's sake let's say we do have 50 mill to splurge on Belotti, surely the club would first offer that for someone like Ings and Southampton would most likely take it

Don't see why Ings would wanna come.... Just had a career best season at his boyhood club and is banging on the door for a Euro's spot... Why bin that in favour of our bench?

If he was leverage-able, I could totally see Utd or City seducing him with a fat wage to help the HG stats.

Spend the thick end of 100m on Grealish cos "at least he's better than Sissoko" and Reguillon cos even though he's shit at defending he might whack a few crosses in.... Then assume there's still 300kpw knocking about for Bales wages.

#Fan-DOFs FTW :freundgoal:
 
Harry Kane had 15 appearances, 585 minutes with 2 goals for Leicester. They thought he was shit.
Alexander Sørloth had 16 appearances, 533 with 0 goals for Crystal Palace. Unlucky not to score against us. They think him are shit. Confidence shot. Goes on and does incredible in Turkey (albeit a shit league, still not that less shit than the Austrian League where Haaland were banging in goals).
We desperatly need a striker to play in Europa and the cups. To be honest, I'll take back in Jansen in a second.
?
Were they 16 EPL apperances ? Asking for a freind

3-5-2 as Nabil Bentaleb Nabil Bentaleb suggests perhaps? Somethings got to change with this god awful system. Play Doherty and Regulion with sess and aurier as back ups.

Hojberg actually sitting with locelso/Ndombele ahead and Kane with Son/new striker up top?

If Jose is staying he has to try something different surely, absolutely ZERO of our midfielders can operate in a pivot successfully.
