I really hope we buy a forward. I like Richarlison but he has no pace

All the walkways in today's stadium are made from the old stadiums crushed concrete...your literally walking on it
Really think we can use Occams Razor on this one.
Was Daniel Levy ever sanctioning 90m on 2 CBs in January?
Or was it Guehi or Danso and we signed the one for 20m?
With Guehi bid rejected, is it worthwhile testing Everton's resolve for Branthwaite. At least he is a left footer and geniune cover for van de Ven.
Maybe ange has seen the light and with our full backs playing as wingers will go 3-5-2
I don't see that making a difference for the likes of Forest, the problem is going to be lack of meaningful depth to rotate with the first XI, and PSR rules are the main barrier to having a squad strong enough to fill 30 spots meaningfully.
It's just his general fitness record that worries me - could break down at any moment
Not sure. I will get back to you.
IDK what Everton's current PSR status is but my guess would be the Onana deal has kept the wolves from the door for them for this season's finances at least, my guess would be Branthwaite is the next big departure at the start of the summer for them to be able to start to shape the squad in Moyes' image. Moyes himself came out in the press this window saying how amazing a job the team there have been doing under the PSR restrictions so one has to assume they probably have a wages to turnover issue in the vein of Villa and will have to keep finding outgoing players to continue to tread the line.
However for much the same reasons as Palace won't sell Guehi I really don't think Branthwaite is going anywhere on deadline day.
Southampton may need to be very cautious. If not they could find he is worth half of what we might be offering.
Who blinks first

Yes fucking please. Romero has downed tools. And Levy did not enjoy the abuse. Guehi VDV would be fantastic
Apart from other big 6 teams and Newcastle Villa we should be above the transfer food chain with all other 12 teams in the prem. Therefore I'm going to rank the top 10 forward players Iin order of who I think would be the best signing for us. I appreciate some of these names (bowen&kudus) are completely unrealistic but I'm going to include them just to get the full picture of the type of players we should really be going after if we were serious!
1) Mbuemo
2) Bowen
3) Cunha
4) Eze
5) Kudus
6) Delap
7) Semenyo
8) Dibling
9) Joao Pedro
10) Wissa

Squads don't rotate enough with the current limits, winning the next game is too important. Extending will do little.
PSR limits wages, another 5-6 full time seniors, clubs Will take the risk with smaller squads.
Only way something changes is if too players or leagues put a cap on # games a player can play a season. That may change behaviour.
Move Cunha and Semenyo up to the top imo.
Take Kudus off the list.
No, we got Danso instead.
Straight out of the Levy playbook
Spend the money before anyone knows you’ve got it
I’m calling it now. We were never interested and this has been agent and club noise to try and create a market for a shit player.
