A bigger problem is who to replace Aurier as first choice RB?

Lamptey has had injury problems and only experience as a RWB. Aarons is being looked at by Bayern Munich and £30M fee will be beyond our budget.
Maybe Levy will have to dip into my slightly batshit idea a few weeks ago of Lucas Vasquez on a free who is currently Real Madrid RB.
Steven Berwijn? :ledleylick:



I meant if we are entertaining the idea of Lucas Vasquez, a makeshift full back, then may as well utilize what we already have.
 
Idk. He wasn’t like this at wolves. He legit looks like a league one player

£0 net spend can work if we are ruthless this summer and ship the deadwood out. This is what I hope happens (realistically):

Players Out
Eric Dier - Simply not needed anymore

Ben Davies - Sess as the cover LB

Matt Doherty - Get him out

Sissoko or Winks - One to go (realistically Sissoko)

Dele - Sadly his time is probably up

Vinicius - I like him but we are not gonna pay 40m


Davies, Doherty, Winks, Dele are all home grown player. Will Bale's loan ending and Hart being rather old, that's 6 home grown players to replace.

Good luck signing 6 British players, of a quality higher than Davies, Dele, Winks and Bale on a budget....
 
In this market, do you think we would get much for player sales?
According to my calculations, Lloris + Davies + Dier + Sanchez + Foyth + Sissoko would get ~£75M.
Assuming Sessegnon & Skipp replace Davies & Sissoko, we'd still need: GK, 2 CBs, back up CF. CM if we can sell Alli, but who would buy him?
Appreciate I’m jumping in late here but no chance would we even get anywhere near 75M for them players you have listed.
Lloris would be around 5-10M, Davies 5M, Dier 10M, Sanchez 10M, Foyth 2.5-5M, Sissoko free.
 
Don't agree mate. You're saying that because of one game. First, he didn't get Son sent off, Sonny did that on his own. R might have overreacted but so does everyone, all of ours included.

Then there's the monkeying/booing thing. In all probability he made a mistake, he misheard, but it's something that's unfortunately uppermost in all black players minds. There was a similar case when Rahim Sterling (?) thought a Chelsea fan had called him a "black cunt" when it (apparently) turned out that the chav in question had said "Manc cunt". I wouldn't blame either Sterling or Rudiger, maybe they should have accepted that they may have misheard, but hey ho, I don't think it makes either of them "cunts".

Of course, it doesn't make that part of the Park Lane end or the chav racist, but like I say, unfortunately, these are the times we live in. What I am saying is that I don't think either were malicious in their accusations.

As a player, I'm not saying we should sign him (I'd rather not sign anyone from Arsen@l or Chelsea really). I do think he's a very decent right back and streets ahead of what we have though.
Amazed this got so many agrees and likes.
If anyone is going to make such a strong accusation as racism then you need to be 100% fucking sure.
This type of shit can ruin someone’s life.
Lose your job etc.

Bullshit
 
Sadly I think everyone is broke.
It's hard to say. The big clubs seem intent on making big signings, so maybe that could get things moving.
Which concerns me if our policy is to sell players and buy
I think our policy (under the current ownership and with all of this stadium debt) should always be geared towards selling to buy, to be honest with you.
Well who is gonna have the money to buy our players ?
To buy our best players? Or to buy the players we don't want?

If Sonny doesn't sign that contract extension, for example, what are we gonna do?

He's a CB though?
