Yeah fair and Johnson and Kulu are decent back ups too.

Who we getting then? I don’t think it’s that difficult to upgrade 9, Richy out for 30M and drop another 45M for Gyokeres, then I would just go Eze. No other incoming players until Jan

Work the squad via youth and upcoming younger players
Gyokeres or Vlahovic are my two favourites out there and they are gettable if the club would go for either of them. They would both give us a focal point which we need because we are a one trick pony in how we try score goals.
Eze isn’t your winger type that will stay wide and run on to things to cross or cut back but if you have him playing in a team with a striker that can link up(even Toney ) it completely gives us another dimension.

I’d honestly give Mikey Moore chances and I even think Porro could play right wing but I do want us to sign a winger.
 
Son (lost form) , Richy (av so far), Werner (av at best), Kulu (so so) or Johnson (may be for the future) are not good enough to lead the line for trophies or CL places. That's if club is ambitious enough.

We need 2 recognised players to make impact from day one for these positions. Failing that, 2024/25 will be same as 2023/24 season. It's not rocket science.

sell rich for 60 and get toney for 40 is a no brainer. next year needs a serious overhaul of the wingers. its clearly not going to happen this year but if the club is serious it cant keep accepting mediocrity up there.

kulu and johnson need to prove they are without a doubt good enough this year, it needs to be sons final year anyway.
 
I need an agree and disagree button..... It IS a mental thing AND he's made of glass. Needs to be dropped off at the local recycling depot - looong overdue!
Re buttons - Admin Admin can we not just have a thumbs up, thumbs down, laughing and wtf-type emoticon? Maybe something too for when you're in between as our own Kane said?

Tick & X feel redundant.
 
Agreed, it would be standing still at best.

The 20m upside is short term
Thinking as well because you get absolutely ZERO sell on value for the 40m you Spunk on Toney so it would depend on what you buy with that extra 20m as to whether it’s upside at all.
Sell Richy for 60, buy Gyok for 60 + 10-20 in perf-related bonuses. Even if/when you end up paying the whole 80 for the big Swede, really he's only cost you 20 mil...wages will be lower than Richy's too.

20 bags for him, the way he played for Sporting last year, the way he looks perfect for Ange's system? No brainer in my books.
