Ive seen comment that most of the clubs reaction this last week or so is driven by fan discontent.

Theyre doing what they can to get us back onside.

RDZ even apologised for having anything to do with Greenwood upon signing, such was the fan feeling.

There is NO chance the club would ever contemplate Greenwood, none at all

Thats exactly why they would. They need more bodies than ever with european football and its not like bergvall is some unknown academy player with a handful of starts, hes played premier league and european football before.

I mean they wouldn't at all, Bournemouth do sensible shit and have only nurtured their own players so they can sell for profit, why the fuck would they want to nurture our player if they're not getting anything our of it? :D

Any suggestions on players you think would be best? Baleba as dm and Scott as playmaker would be excellent imo. Biss, sarr and bergvall (loan) out would leave us with baleba/gray and scott/bents which i think is a great mix.

Tbh I do think those 2 could work well together but I can't see us splashing that much money on CMs when we desperately need a striker and a winger too, which won't come cheap. Scott and Baleba would cost the best part of 150m.

Given what we've got - basically a load of box-to-box types - we could really use someone very comfortable on the ball who is press resistant with a decent range of passing. I think Scott could do that and do a decent job alongside some of our mids like Bentancur for instance, I just don't think he's quite the profile I'd lean towards.

The dream would be Anderson - he can basically do everything - or Wharton but alas we're never gonna get either of those guys. Maybe Curtis Jones would be an attainable option for us if Liverpool are willing to let him go? Or Stiller from Stuttgart? But again he'll have more attractive suiters.

Romero will be off and Porro, Udogie will most likely be here next season unless you think we can upgrade 3 of our back 4 which isn't realistic. There's also such thing as coaching and Porro and Udogie can benefit from that next season whilst it's clear that we need attacking reinforcements.

Agreed that we need a ball playing mid however ultimately it doesn't matter where we start and what we proritise anyway, as long as we've done what's needed come the end of the window.

Why isn't that realistic???

We are rumoured to have signed Senesi and Robertson, that's 2 out of 4 positions, and the transfer window hasn't even opened yet.

Romero was the defensive rock of Argentina when they won the WC. Messi said he's best CB in the world and wanted Barca to buy him while still at Barca.
Frank and, particularly, Angelos were terrible at setting up the defense. And both Porro and Udogie have played under 6 head-coaches (Conte, Mason, Angelos, Fran, Tudor, De Zerbi) since they arrived at Spurs.
My problem with Udogie is that he's so injury prone that he's never managed to reach total match fitness before being injured again.
However, I am not saying that Porro and Udogie don't have defenseive flaws ...

The Premier League isn't the World Cup, far from it.

Players like Romero and Porro would look amazing playing for clubs that have the ball 75% of their games, like Barca, Real Madrid, Man C

They had kepa for a year loan just season before.. Theyre about to play europe for the first time of course they would take someone like bergvall on loan. Again hes not some academy kid with a handful of minutes they would feel he could help their squad in a busy season, espescially in this hypothetical where scott leaves.

Why wouldn't they just buy someone if Scott leaves like they normally do?
