That's promising. Although don't forget we banked £100milion for the guy he's replacing on the eve of last season.
Also to factor in his wage relative to other targets

Richarlison is still at the clubThat's promising. Although don't forget we banked £100milion for the guy he's replacing on the eve of last season.
We will be stuck with a high earning player who isn’t up to it. Been there, done that.he made 33 apps last year and is 26 hahaha. i agree it is strange that there seems to be no solid interest tho. for 25m its a cheeky little punt, if it dont come off its not the end of the world.
fuck solomon off and he can have his spot.
Well if he can play with both of them maybe he can play with us tooDoue would be amazing long term but looks like Bayern and PSG have that one rapped up.
I'm not using "stats" I'm using goals. They're the entire point of the game, if you hadn't heard.No, Johnson isn’t an outright first choice as evidenced by the fact the club were looking at Neto.
Look Brennan had an OK season and he gets too much shit on this site, but anyone that thinks a trio of Son, Solanke and Johnson gets us into the realms of even competing at the top end of the league is deluded.
Stop using stats as an argument, it’s incredibly reductive. Both Son and Johnson had statistically good seasons last year, but anyone that understands football who actually watched the game as opposed to just looking at the stats could see our wide players were a huge huge issue in our build up play and an area we needed to improve upon.
There’s a reason everyone has been talking about a “profile of a wide player” like Neto who can beat a man.
There’s some cunts on here who are unfair to our players at times, and I get we want to argue with that. But if you’re happy with Son, Solanke and Johnson as a starting trio because all 3 had decent stats last season you’re misguided as to what’s going to make us a better team this year.
VDV and Spence. Gray at right back.Is a great question.
I guess Spence for now but with the games we have to play, he can't be the rotation FB on both sides. We need a rotation for Udogie this window 100%.
I think he'll get a chance to feature in several positions and lay claim to one spot or another by the spring. He's very good, but very young and the PL is a big step up for him.
Because FSG were exceedingly fortunate. They've been every bit as tight as Levy, their net spend over their tenure is less than Spurs.How can you honestly post that. (Unless you’re being facetious)
Liverpool have won every trophy there is to win under FSG. I would take them every day of the week ahead of the muppets of owners we have.
They may not have bought anyone yet, but they’re coming at the window from a totally different position to us, and I guarantee they will have a better squad/team than us at the end of the window.
TWO, sorry who are you talking about? I haven't seen one yet.I think after spending big on Solanke I just can’t see it, we never make two huge marquee signings in one window to my knowledge.
West Ham yesterday. Chelsea this afternoon.
Who we sucking off tomorrow?

He got a couple of cameos at the Euros so how can you judge anything about that. He’s only 21, so Bergwijn had a couple more years development when we signed him. More than anything he just fits our system, whereas Bergwijn never really fit in under Jose.RW is by far the weakest position… but to be frank no one on the RW market excites me.
Bakayoko’s Eredivisie record is worse than Bergwijn’s before we bought him; while he didn’t impress at the Euros.
Fair points, I'm no expert on the guy so just going off limited information. But I note that other big clubs haven't pursued him like they have Doue.He got a couple of cameos at the Euros so how can you judge anything about that.

Richarlison was definitely brought in to replace Kane since we knew he was leaving, but what I'm saying is that Solanke was brought in to replace Richarlison as our starting striker.He came a year before Kane. His game is nothing like Harry Kane's. No way can he be realistically be considered any kind of replacement.
FWIW, I like Richy. I praised the signing at the time and I really believe he could and should be a massive asset moving forward so long as he's managed and utilised in the right way. You don't feature regularly for the Brazilian national team for nothing.
Great attitude, too.
