I may be in the minority, but I don’t care about the size of the transfer fee if the signing fits the team and coach well. The wages will attract better players though. Let’s see what they pull off.

I mean everything else I can understand and mostly also support.
But our attack was poor as it was.
Why would we downgrade so badly by choice?
By selling HG and superior player Solanke to next Kolo Muani who has done absolutely fuck all and failed in PSG?
Cause he is offered?
Makes total zero sense.
More money is obviously a bonus but the most important part is how we use what we have.
What's the context of this conversation.....
Are they discussing the idea of having a threesome?
I think it was about exploring seeing other people might bring them closer?
Fucking quality show….. feel off a cliff but the first 2 and a half seasons were brilliant
Solanke has been unavailable for the majority of 2 years. It's time to cut losses. Whether it's for Ramos, Woltemade or someone like Marmoush (who for me is undoable for this shit board), Solanke needs to go alongside the other 2 wasters that attempt to play CF.
So? Honours lists don’t win you games in 2026. They’re both at the wrong end of their careers and Stones’ injury record alone should set alarm bells off.
If we want to challenge at the top, players City and Liverpool no longer think are good enough or reliable enough shouldn’t suddenly be the answer for us. Free transfer means nothing if they’re constantly injured, not going to play and on massive wages.
Bullshit.
You can just be a moody fan that does oversimplify everything to level "He is not available today = he is always injured" , but don't try to present that as a fact.
Solanke had never any injury problems before joining us and he played part in 45 (!!) games last season.
In the freshly ended season he did miss most of it. Yes. But that does not mean that he always has and always will be injured.
Sure- he is upgradable as a ST. But it is 90+% sure that he is not going anywhere. Nor should he - selling him after that season we would get poor value. Once he was available, our performances did improve.
Do you widely accept our medical department has been not fit for purpose the last two years? Then why blame Solanke for the mismanagement of his ankle issue? He had a spotless injury record before joining. Get the medical department right and get players like him back on the pitch.
start of thread. I'm banking on something soon haha
Way I see it we paid 65m for solanke to wear a tracksuit and sit on the bench. We need a top striker next season.
Never seen the PR machine working this hard before.
Big big talk from all angles. ENIC really have nowhere to hide now.
They need to deliver a massive window.

RW is also looking bleak given the state of Kudus and Kulu's injuries. Something will need to be done there.
It's essentially a whole new starting front line required. United did it last summer after losing to us. It can be done despite what the ENIC apologists on here will tell you.
This is the key
Right now its all talk, and Im very much of the mind "Ill believe it when I see it"
That said, theyve made a statement now, not the usual vague/wishy washy stuff - so theres a standard they can be held to now
Lets see where we are at the end of the window
If they really have made progress, theyll have some credit in the bank
If not...

I get the noise about “profile fit” and all that jazz
But with Liverpool, Chelsea, City and even Woolwich sniffing around, we have to leverage him being a Spurs fan and sign him.
I’d even sell Bergvall and Sarr if necessary
It’s more like a general overview. No team gets it right 100% with signings. The key is not to be stubborn and then double down on your mistakes.
PSG & Bayern spent a huge sum on Ugarte and Palhinha and were both sent away after a single season.
Of course it’s not easy. This is top level sport.
Pick a plan that the fans can believe in, a style of play that’s in our culture, and see it through. RDZ has the gravitas I believe.
Whatever happens people will moan.
