Gunter looks quality. We haven’t brought a keeper through since Ian Walker
As soon as we signed Werner on loan it was obvious what was going to happen. Ange never should have signed off on that transfer.
Definitely played more football than Palmer.
Have to take him on his merits and assume nothing because of his age. Was a shit ton more productive than Neto last year
Same could have been said about the signing of Bergvall (and probably was said by a few posters). Right now most of us would have him starting over pretty much every other MF. And he didn't even have any top 5 league experience, much less in the PL.
So just because someone is 19 means fuck all.
Not sure our depth at striker is an issue.
It's the wide players. Odobert is the step in the right direction. But the depth beyond that for what we need from our widemen is lacking.
Even Moore isn't a 1 v 1 specialist - but he's intelligent unlike the majority we have.
If you compare those players Liverpool. Salah and Jota are class, Salah getting on a bit. Liverpool also have on paper quite a balanced attack.
Jota: CF
Salah: wide goalscorer
Nunez: worker
You’ve not listed these teams front 3 players correctly, not sure why you’re including Nelson for Woolwich and not saka martinelli trossard and not sure why savinho is there for city but not foden doku grealish..
But yeah it’s pretty obvious our attacking options are far worse than city Liverpool and Woolwich's
Definitely not us
Ok, how about an eze coming on to replace an underperforming Son or ineffective Sarr last night when we needed a goal against a low block? Eze finds avenues to create in these scenarios.
How about a kubo/raphinha/xavi simons/mbeumo/ or even jarred bowen attacking the left back rather than johnson who isn't particularly technical with the ball
Eze could even have been more of a threat off the right than either Johnson or werner and its not even his best position
Tell him he's not in plans and will rarely be used.
World cup in two years.
Yeah I would've liked Eze, but he's not a player you keep on the bench. He'd basically need to start ahead of either Maddison or Son. You could make the case that Maddison deserves dropping based on last season, but he played really well vs Leicester.
Wouldn't call Salah a striker, Savinho isn't one and neither is Nelson
Think Liverpool have the best depth in that position and are clear of everyone here.
But we bought in the fricking United States of America which added a lot of squad depth.
No way Levy would shell out for that now.
Maybe we could do some sort of false-flag operation to trigger him? Do a press release saying Spammers are building a creche and a greyhound kennel.
I am not against buying him but, as already mentioned, he would not be an 2nd choice option as he's only 18 and have one Seri A game for Fiorentina. - so this is clearly one for the future.
Next Generation 2023: 60 of the best young talents in world football
From Warren Zaïre-Emery to Endrick, we select some of the world’s best players born in 2006

Tommaso Martinelli
Club:Fiorentina
Position: Goalkeeper
Born: 6 January 2006
There is some disagreement about who is the greatest goalkeeping prospect named Tommaso in Fiorentina’s academy system. Tommaso Vannucchi, born in 2007, has turned down interest from Paris St-Germain, but Martinelli, one year his senior, was the second-youngest player called up by the then Italy manager Roberto Mancini for a winter training camp aimed at assessing the country’s brightest young talents in December. An agile shot stopper who fills the goal at 1.93m, Martinelli has impressed with his distribution too and, after starting for Fiorentina’s under-20 side last season, now sits on the bench for the first team.

We need a player in the middle of the park who can change games for us. A determined, Spiteful little warrior who won’t tolerate head loss like the 15ms last night. Ideally one with goals in them as well.
Bergvall and Gray look fantastic but we also need to protect them.

think what ever serious money we have left will go on Centre mid, that could help us alot of it's the right profile.
Unfortunately think we are done with the attack
João Gomes noises continue on SpursCommunity. Quite probably bollocks, but someone in midfield to really add some grit and help shield the back four would be rather nice. I doubt we'd have lost our mojo like we did last night from the moment Leicester equalised.
