With Postegluglu on board and a pre-season under his belt, we’ll run our opponents ragged! Hojbjerg will unleash his deep lying playmaking skills and will be worth £100m come start of the season. Dier will finally fulfill his full potential and will be in the same bracket with Maldini and Nesta by the end of the winter. Don’t get me started on Davies, Sanchez and Tanganga. Solid, solid backups material, any top 4 club would dream of. And I’m not even counting our brightest hope coming back from his successful loan in Italy. Up top, we are secured. The pigeon dancer will unload goal after goal and Haaland will go back farming in Norway. Extremely exciting times. Can’t wait for the new season!

After reading your post Haaland went straight back to Bryne, Norway, to continue farming...

If our beloved Board's objective for next season genuinely is to get back into the Top 4, considering where we're at right now and the crazy competition we'll be facing...the below is what must happen transfer/squad-wise.

I know, I know..."get real", "won't happen within one window", "our current squad ain't that bad & would do much better with a proper HC" (lolz) and all that. Come at me with anything, always happy to debate ofc...but I'm pretty strong-minded about this one. Desperate situation = drastic solutions kind of thing.

**Where I'm coming from**

- Frase is an able deputy, no more​
​
- I trust Emerson to do a solid job if his main focus is defending...he's showed us that already​
​
- I'd only trust Porro & Udogie together in a back 4 if we have 3 solid CM to cover for them​
​
- None of our current CB options are top 4 material...yes, even your beloved Romero, man is a walking red card/pen to the opposition. Dier is...well...Dier. Big Ben is a decent backup, no more. Rest are shite​
​
- When it comes to CM, the only dude who's elite is Roddy. I don't care what the stats say, PEH ain't a top 10-20 CM in the league. Bissouma, if he gets back to his Brighton level, is a sure starter...but as of now, he's miles away from that. Skippy is a 4th or 5th option. Sarr needs a loan, Devine too​
​
- I'm not sure I'm signing Kulu for 30ish mil seen as he's been way average the whole season, and even if I did, I'm bringing a more exciting & quicker CAM/RW combo guy in​
​
- Bar Harry & Sonny, we got nobody reliable up front. Yeah yeah yeah we got Brazil's No 9, he's gonna justify his huge price tag next season blah blah blah...hummm not betting on that. Young Bryan G deserves a proper shot and some decent minutes whenever we play 3 up front. But apart from that we're shit light. So need a proper back up ST and a lively winger who's got goals & assists in him​

It’s a fair point, but I doubt there a queue round the block for this guy at £27m. Presume we’d have a chance to bag him for less if the new manager really feels he’d be a good addition.

For £27M if we were serious about him he surely would have got more minutes. Think he started one game. Don’t think he git any minutes on Sunday. Such a shit show alround with this deal including letting Gil go. We all know who was responsible!
