CHO is better at what we need, he takes players on and makes them commit, would be good for Ange ball because our wingers are always isolated with the full back.
Werner on the other hand isn't the best at doing that, his wing play is average in comparison.
It's a madness how much work there is to do for IN and OUT in this squad.
5th, the season after losing Kane wasn't great but it really wasn't terrible considering.
How much can one team of staff actually get done in one summer? 12-13 OUT and 5-6 IN?
He probably is!Better to go somewhere where he has more chance of being permanently first choice. (Hope he’s reading.)
Fuck it, just buy Palace at this point.

Mr Lange can you do something for me...
I think he’d be a big mistake and we’d be looking to offload him in a couple of years.

We’ll need a bigger squad for the europa though. I’d be surprised if half of those go. The turnover of players we need is just too high. Then you’ve got to get them gelling and learning the system. All in a tournament summer. If we make that many changes we’ll have to be patient again next season. I can’t face another transitional year.
How expensive would CHO be? As long as it's less than like 30m, would be a good hgn backup who can also potentially push for starting spots. Still need another really good winger.
Werner is right there, and he's available for 15M if we want to go down the cheap route. In my opinion this CHO transfer makes 0 sense.
CHO is 5x as good as Werner and homegrown
We need to buy aiming for better than CHO...
I would take Philogene and Whittaker from the championship for less than that combined.
I would imagine they are who Palace will go for when Eze and Olise are sold.
We need 6 forwards to play this way and Kulusevski is maybe on top of the 6.
Son
Johnson
Richy is he staying?
That’s 3
We need to sign 3 more if Richy stays, 2 depending on how you see Kulusevski.
We seriously need to get our act together wrt HG or we'll be left trying to flog a small squad to death playing 2+ games per week (fingers crossed on some cup runs).
And by get our act together I mean filling our squad out with some HG players that will actually play, not just having a 3rd choice keeper that is HG.
It's an issue that we've been talking about for ages now and each passing season it becomes more pressing, last season seemed to be a promising start to the window on that front with Maddison signing, and an apparent move for Raya who counts as HG, but then we swerved Raya and also sold Kane so stood still on the whole.
Bergvall all being well will become CT, KWP would be a wise move as can cover both sides, suits the inverted fullback role, and is also CT. Eze would be ideal as in an improvement to the first team squad and HG status, whilst CHO would aid HG and hopefully be a useful squad filler, but the price would have to be reasonable for it to make sense.
I really hope we significantly strengthen our HG numbers this summer, as opposed to just doing the bare minimum and then having the same issue again next summer. There's plenty of players out there that can both improve the squad and put us in a strong position regarding HG numbers.
Think most people would be ok with Werner or CHO if we manage to get in a genuinely good winger and striker.
Werner's been average but atleast you know what you're getting from him: some head-scratching misses but overall, actually decent output and an injection of pace. If wages can be negotiated down, there's not much downside to him provided we get a starting XI caliber winger as well.
CHO's probably a bit more expensive and bit of a gamble given that's it's only these last few months that he's really taken off. He could very well end up better than Werner though. He's hg too.
Gallagher looks like one they go for that adds to HG.
Can’t see KWP happening tbh. I could definitely see them going after Gray as he’d be HG and covers #6 and RB.
