How Dry should our Powder be?

We need an actual LB/LCB player not a right back shoehorned in. I know KWP and Spence can do a job there but I’d rather more than do a job.

In terms of how we play with inverted fullback midfielders Gray might be a better LB option.

I agree.

But we're short on CT players. Guess we could always just submit a small squad in Europe.

Almost wonder if Skipp leaving is because we've decided to keep Devine
 
That would be so stupid. 3 RB’s in Porto, Spence and KWP plus Gray who can cover. Talent wise I don’t even rate KWP above Spence, Spence for me has a much higher ceiling.

Club wouldn’t be that dumb.
100%!
How old is he now? No one has snapped him up before so obvs his ceiling has been reached.
Why not just the money from skipp , gio and reg to pay for a real quality ready made player. Basically just put down £70M for eze. Be done with it. Move on some players next season like MADDs, kulu, bis or bent if underperforming this season. Just get a ready made quality first team footballer. Fuck the stupid average squad fillers.

Is Devine staying I thought he was going on loan?

That aside I suspect Lo Celso will also be off. I am sure we will get at least one more midfielder before the window closes.

Eze’s release clause has ended sadly but a bit of extra quality is always welcome.

We definitely aren’t spending money on KWP just for CT numbers in Europe.

It’s not happening and nor should it. As much as Spence wasn’t 100% convincing at LB with balls over his head vs Bayern, Ange has pretty much confirmed that he’s ok with him there for now. If we sign a lefty defender it will be one who can play CB and LB.

You're funny man, you want us to put down a massive downpayment on Eze but he is a player who doesn't even fit anywhere in our team, that doesn't make sense.

And also his release clause expired last week anyway so he'll cost more than that.
 
Skipp out for 15-20m

Gomes in for 40-50m

If we could get 10-15m for GLC as well we’d be looking at upgrading to Gomes for a pretty reasonable net outlay.

Biss
Bentancur
Gray
Sarr
Bergvall
Gomes

Those cover the 6/8 rotation

Maddison
Kulusevski
Bergvall

Those cover us for the #10 rotation


Solid window
You have to give the club credit on the clear out.
Good luck skippy, hopefully a couple more to come in, squad starting to look strong.
