How Dry should our Powder be?

Hopefully the club are smart enough to learn from past mistakes and not allow us to enter a season with an undercooked front three.

Werner - Son - Johnson is nightmare fuel.

Play Son as a winger, stop being cheap cunts and sign a proper, quality 9. Werner should be absolutely nowhere near a starting XI. Johnson did alright after his early fuck ups yesterday, a proper striker will benefit from his balls in which were actually pretty good yesterday.

You’d imagine shit will get done this week before the tour. I won’t be bothering this season if we don’t get the right personnel in. If they can’t be fucked, I can’t.

£10m is very low for Hoj, even given his age and contract situation. £15m is about the minimum I'd have expected, and more like £18-20m in all honesty. There is a decent player there in the right system, as he showed for Denmark.

Turns out it was £17m all in and I was right. And resident forum incel The Absolute GOAT The Absolute GOAT who follows me around X-ing all my posts was wrong. Shocker.

So who is now left?

- Bryan Gil - 40k wages
- Regulion - 53k wages
- Solomon - 60k wages
- Davies (need a replacement for a
Good servant of the club) - £80k wages
- Royal £41k wages
- Lo Celso £70k wages

You’d at least hope 4 will be gone by start of season. Its over £300k per week of wages so decent chunk.

Don't think a lot will get done before the tour, still be looking at a couple in when season starts.

Yeah definitely agree with that. If we don’t get better players for those positions then it’s literally throwing Ange under the bus because if we have a similar season the crackpots will turn on him and inevitably it goes one way. We have the best manager we’ve had since the 80s so give him the fucking tools to win something. Ramsey or Gallagher stinks of signing a player just because they are English or to offload someone else but it doesn’t improve us.

Ange would have to shoulder his fair share of responsibility if he prioritises the likes of Ramsey or Gallagher over a striker.
 
For CMs we have: Maddison, Gray, Bergvall, Sarr, Bissouma, Bentancur, Kulusevski apparently, and Skipp if he doesn't leave. Surely enough for 3 positions?

Nobody knows if Ange actually wants these players. The only thing I’ll be totally pissed off with Ange is if he thinks our front players can take him where he wants to go. To be fair to him he has said on numerous occasions he wasn’t happy with the attacking side of things. If we don’t get a striker minimum then it’s just accepting mediocrity.
