Happy to have Gallagher. Don't want Toney. Will support Hudson Odoi and hope for the best without holding my breath.I'm in 2 minds. part of me thinks Hudson Odoi, Toney and Gallacher would be good home grown signings and we need a squad. Other part says they are mid players and we have no ambition
It's cheaper than signing star players. He was trying to win on the cheap.You don’t employ Conte on £15m per season if a) you’re a miser and b) you’re not trying to win something on the footballing front.
So we’ve definitely bid for Eze and Olise then?
ENIC know their potential buyers, eh? Here is a prime London football club ripe for doping Sheikh Whateveryourfuckingnameis.
Doubt the club will spend a third of that, but it's super impressive.
Yeah its a pity we never had one of the leagues best strikers to waste for 10+ yrs, you should be down on Levy.I'm normally down on Levy and the transfer BS we put ourselves through, but I'm looking at the potential strikers available (even as a reach with unlimited money) and..... who? Like, who the hell are we even HOPING for unrealistically this window?
Not great to have a very shallow pool of option for our biggest need.
Even if that is vaguely true then this is our opportunity isnt it. Everyone else struggling there isnt one good reason why we shouldnt be bullying our way to the front of the queue for the likes of Olise, Sesko, Ugarte, Eze. I mean i know we wont and we'll be looking at cash strapped clubs for bargains but Klopp gone, Utd all over the shop, Chelsea changing managers again and Guardiolas last season this sort of feels like our chance.

40m - Gimenez - Striker
70m - Eze - Attacking Mid / Left Wing
30m - Calafiori - Centre back / Left Back
40m - Gray - Right Back / Defensive Mid
Loan - Simons - Right Wing / Left Wing
10m - Carnesecchi - GK
50m - Ugarte - Defensive Mid
+
Bergval - Centre Mid / Attacking Mid / Defensive Mid
240m euro outlay. (Of course made these prices up like I am playing FM)
We spent 250 last summer, though recovered 120. Not sure we can recover close to that this year, but do have European football.
I think Eze and Ugarte are statement signings, Simons on loan smart. Gray will be a star I am sure and Calafiori looks quality.
Gimenez is a risk but the available strikers market is poor.
Keeper seems regarded on the continent after a good loan spell, don’t know too much but assume that’s the vibe we will be looking for.
