I love facts.Pedro Neto, 11 goals and 20 assists over 111 games in the Prem.
Dejan Kulusevski, 15 goals and 18 assists over 84 games.
Brennan Johnson, 13 goals and 13 assists over 73 games.
Purely on end product, there's not a great deal between any of them, yet some on here would sell their first born to get Neto and/or Olise in.
Hmm, ok dear. Whatever you say. I don’t recall scapegoating Brennan Johnson but never mind.I'm going to say this to you once. Only once. Only once should I or will I expect to have to tell you this, so listen up.
You had better fucking well support Solanke when he joins us, whether he hits the ground running or not. Don't you bloody dare scapegoat him the way that happened to Brennan Johnson.
Got it? Good.
2 players for every position seems a good policy to me. Maybe we don't keep Spence?
Johan Bakayoko seems good to me but I don't assume we'll buy him.2 players for every position seems a good policy for me. Maybe we don't keep Spence?
Mackay, Blanchflower, Gazza, Klinsman, Hoddle, Bale are all in that arguement. Let’s try really hard not to make a Solanke comparison to Kane, who was exceptionalNever in a million years is Kane the best player in the clubs history!
One of the best, maybe, but dont forget Greaves, who clinically was a better finisher!
Was wondering if you could get away with not registering Forster for the 8 Europa league group stage games to free up another spot, you can always change that before the knockouts if needed. Just go with Vic and Austin as back up and it would allow us to go for another overseas player if needed. Could still have Forster as back up for PremSolanke must surely replace Solomon? If he and the usual suspects leave this would be our UEFA squad of 21 non club trained players. Assuming we bring in club trained KWP as back up RB/LB we need one more off the list if we want to sign another player.

Fabrice Hawkins is pretty reliable IIRC. Personally I'm happy to avoid injury prone players.
