Bergwijn and Doherty probably have combined value of around £20M. Neto is around £40M. Wolves have let go of Jota, and Neto is now key, so I don't see this transfer happening.
Many clubs are interested in Ings, including City. I doubt Southampton rate Winks that highly, they'd prefer some cash. Also Ings doesn't really have the versatility to play out wide, so why would he join to be on the bench for most of the season at his age?
Don't agree with loaning out our first choice RB.
We won’t get a penny for Sissoko based on his wage, will cost us to get him to go (on a lower wage). Someone might do 10m on Winks, possibly Palace etc
I was hoping we'd go after Pope.
I think we will. He seems like our primary option. With names like Casteel as options.
Oh come on, Berg didn't lose any value since we bought him, he's still young and talented. And I hope we won't let him go.
Yeah but covid means finances are more strained since we bought him
In no way is Bergjwin worth the £23m we paid for him today.
You value doesn't go up after a poor season and add to that the covid impact too.
Ideally, Jose gets punted, and we get Nagelsmann in. He was never the right man for this club, and a lot on here suspected this at the time, and have been proven correct.
Nagelsmann, however, is for me, the man to take forward the foundations and brand of football set by Poch and take us to the next level.
Given the quick pressing, work-driven style he expects, with minimal individual errors, there’s far too many in this squad that wouldn’t suit, possibly too many to get rid of in one window.
Aurier
Doherty
Dier
Winks
Sissoko
Alli
Bale
Vinnie
Sanchez, Davies, Lamela & Lucas would all be questionable. Whether Sanchez can be coached into cutting out all his silly mistakes is up for debate, but he does have a lot the physical attributes needed to play the high line Nagelsmann prefers. Davies might be useful as an option for left centre back in a 3, particularly given the lack of left footed CB’s at the moment. Might also be an option to give Foyth another chance next season, like Sanchez, he does possess some of the attributes Nagelsmann likes in a centre half, and is pretty versatile.
Obviously the key areas needing addressing would be RB, at least one top quality CB, depending on what happens with Sanchez/Foyth, a CM, left footed winger and a backup to Kane.
Max Aarons would be a decent option for RB
Sabitzer’s the obvious choice for CM, given his contract situation, and familiarity with JN.
One we’ve not been linked to, but I’d suggest would be a good fit is Mikel Oyarzabal at Real Sociedad. He’s a wee wizard on the wing, and a grafter too. Not quite the goal threat that Son is, but he’s more focused on creating chances rather than finishing them, though still chips in with 10ish a season.
Ings possibly for Kane’s backup? Questions over his injury record and he’d still be pricey despite his contract situation.
The area I can’t put my finger on is centre half, who’s out there that would drastically improve us that isn’t gonna cost 45m +?

Must get rid list:
One of aurier or Doherty
Dier
Winks
Sissoko
Would listen to offers:
Lloris
Sanchez
Davies
Dele
Lamela

Dier
Winks
Sissoko
Would listen to offers:
Lloris
Sanchez
Davies
Dele
Lamela
Looks like we're gonna have to focus on bringing in a competent RW too after this:
Think in the summer who could possibly and need to go are :
Lloris and Aurier both having 1 year left and wanting to leave (from reports)
Then one of Dier or Sanchez or both of somehow possible.
Winks , sissoko, Doherty all not good enough.
Would keep Davies and Dele for now as would be some turn over of players for one window.

Just an update - nothing in ABC Sevilla, other local press or Marca, As etc. It's complete bollocks, which now makes it a 0/2 credibility rating for this piss poor site
Use your contacts to hype up Sanchez to Sevilla fans. They’ll have a bit of cash to spare, and will need a CB, after selling Kounde.
With Bale loan cancelled, there’s a strong argument to not buy Vinicius, but a RW who can play upfront.
Daka or Leao?
Daka or Leao?
First choice RB ?
How many games did Tanganga play RB for us this season......?
Enough to making him first choice RB right now.
Bring back Sessegnon and Skipp next season to add squad depth.
Sell Alli, Lamela, Sissoko, Davies and perhaps one or two others, for decent money. I'd be sad to see both Lamela and Alli go.
We're not signing any genuinely world-class players for a number of reasons. So realistically we have to target players that are already good but have room to improve, and are at clubs that are genuinely smaller than ourselves. Off the top of my head and sticking within these shores, I think both Konsa or White would be good, sensible signings. But both are English and will no doubt cost way more than they are actually worth right now. Grealish would be a dream signing but is highly unlikely to say the least. I always thought that Trossard looks a good player for Brighton and should be at a bigger club, but was surprised to see he's only scored 4 goals this season for them. The two Norwich boys Aarons and Buendia would add something and can both improve, but with them going up it's not going to happen. I have to say that the Andersen fella at the back for Fulham has always impressed me a lot whenever I've seen him play. And he's not their player of course. I'd take him in an instant for the right price.

We may just stave off relegation with that lot.
You're buying kids...is next season 2011/12 not 2021/22?
