Trix at SC saying Levy wants Victor Oshimen

One person I'd really like from Lille is Luis Campos, hopefully coming with his contacts list and details of all the players he rates - we really need to rebuild our player acquisition our analytics capabilities and also re-set up our loans area to get the most out of our academy which is excellent (although like all things can be improved) to develop players up to age 18, but there's a big gap between there and bringing them into first team.
 
Dwight McNeil only 20 & English despite the name. We can use lots of memes from 'the office' US version. 30m opening bid or wanyama, KWP & 15m.
Ajax keeper, also young. Start getting good younger players in for the painful rebuild.
 
I really think that we should be looking in the Bundesliga for a striker, not France.

The pace is similar to the Prem and most players from Germany seem to have it easier when it comes to adapting to the league because of that.

Someone like Weghorst at Wolfsburg (tall, strong target man), Quaison at Mainz (similar to Kane in size and build, bit pacier), Andersson at Union Berlin (again a target man in the Llorente mold) or Plea at Gladbach (similar to Kane and Quaison in size). Either of those four I think would complement our attack well.



Quaison has a rocket hidden in his boot from time to time as well.
 
Eric Dier seemingly coming back to form just in time for summer.

One year left on his contract, so either he signs another contract with a view to him filling a CB or DM slot...…......or he'll be sold for a decent fee which can be used to re-invest in the squad.

Either way, very good news.
 
I am going to imagine the list of players who do this is very small, but idk, maybe we can sign Mbappe and Neymar.
There are a number of players, more than a dozen if not two, throughout europe with a lower minutes per goal record. Ranging from some who would cost more and be more of a presumed sure thing to those who would cost less. Mins/goal obviously isn't everything, but I think paying that kind of money for him is poor value.

We can do better, and personally, we need a stronger option. Kane will be hurt and miss 2+ months next season too.
 
Whatever we do our targets must in the pipeline and we must be ready to pounce.

It is hugely unlikely that we will now be as a CL team so we need to hope the other attractions are good enough.

Mourinho will need to do something he has never done (aside maybe from Porto) and build a team. It is a significant challenge but overhaul is now the only way.
