Does the squad below not have depth? I think so…. You are right, they are unproven but better than sticking with a spine that are proven and established to be clearly not good enough….. shithouses like Lloris, Sanchez, Sess, Ndom, Dier, Hoj, Winks, Lucas etc all removed (who have cost us and dragged us down for years)


Vicario, Forster
Royal/ Porro
Romero Van De Ven, New CB, Phillips
Udogie, Davies
Bentancur, Skipp
Bissouma, Sarr
Maddison, Lo Celso
Kulusevski, Son, Solomon, Richarlison
Kane, Veliz

I would lean that squad even further tbh and loan Richy or Veliz and Phillips
Not if you're talking about putting a player on loan that we've paid 60m for, that's more problems. How comes he goes but Lo Celso stays?
 
I'm keeping it real, Celtic fans came on here and said Ange is a great coach but he's got to be given time, expecting CL with the squad we have isn't giving him time. There are probably a few more players to come in who will miss a preseason, he needs at least a full season working with this squad, then next season we'll see what the deal is

Keeping it real, we have enough of that shit in real life...football is supposed to be the escape from that...
 
Who is most? The only other player who really had any real role in that team was Bissouma, who had 10 starts and was misused by Conte.

GLC does not need to become a new player, he just needs to continue playing the way he has been for the last two years.

Being unproven at this level means nothing, Haaland and Salah were both "unproven at this level" before breaking the goalscoring record.
But we aren't Villarreal, this is not la Liga. Being un proven does mean something because if they are crap we struggle to get rid of them as the past couple of years have shown.

But if you take Kane out it looks incredibly weaker, as yesterday showed, near impossible to replace. Another pacy winger wouldn't go astray either, Full back starters ok, but their reserves are a worry also.
Much better football , hopefully some of our weaknesses will be negated by our new style.

There's a balance between 'keeping it real' and 'being a miserable cunt determined to bring everyone down' and I'm not sure you've found it just yet.

Keep trying, Meldrew.

Agree but we only have 20 games until Jan window. Would rather stay agile
 
Whats peoples take on Ward-Prowse links?
I watched him a lot towards the end of last season when I thought Southampton would get relegated but wasn't overly impressed, however, he does take fucking great corners and free kicks ( as does Maddison)
so whats your thinking?
He’s a tidy player and doesn’t do anything brilliant from open play. I don’t think he’d make us better in any way.

I mean how is an anonymous person on the internet going to bring people down with views about the team? That would suggest an extremely soft character on their part.
 
Ok Victor,

I’ve watched Southampton live a few times. He’s clearly their best player but that’s honestly not saying much. Maybe he has a higher ceiling with better team mates around him, but feels like a luxury buy when we have other areas that need strengthening.
 
I think Richy needs to play regularly next season. I’m sure we could be creative and loan him for c.10M to someone until we know what happens with Kane, or until Jan
We struggle to loan out existing deadwood already no one will pay 10m for a loan. Richy has the potential to a very important player for us.
