Getting rid of 13 (Lange & co gotta pull their finger out. Maybe grow some balls too and 1/ be brutally honest with the deadwood 2/ dare tell their Daddy Danny that his valuations are ridiculous.
Take 60mil for Romero and say thank you.
Drag, Biss, Richy and Bryan Gil mustn't be in this coming season's squad. That's just gross negligence.
Bentancur and yeah even Kulu & Sarr don't (really) deserve another season.
Kinsky looks like the wrong buy.
Somebody offers us a decent amount for Odobert, I'm definitely listening. Unfortunately it's another year til we can cut his wee French pal.
Will always love him dearly but time for Sonny to find another challenge. Similar sentiment re Gentle Ben.
I know it ain't gonna happen.Getting rid of 13 () players would dramatically lower the wage:revenue ratio though, so why would we do that?
Also, ridiculous amount of outs - no one is ever going to do that.
Its real life and not FM.
I think so and a top draw one. I know the money ect...but we should try and hijack Oshimen. It's a position you can not cut corners on and the elite ones cost.
I wish or sesko even use some of the money for a striker rather then a cbI think so and a top draw one. I know the money ect...but we should try and hijack Oshimen. It's a position you can not cut corners on and the elite ones cost.
We're not getting Osimhen. Absolutely no chance.I think so and a top draw one. I know the money ect...but we should try and hijack Oshimen. It's a position you can not cut corners on and the elite ones cost.
Yeah we know, we're talking about what we need an elite centerforward. He's about the best on the market Ekitike only wants Liverpool Sesko isn't as good as the two named but that's the level we need.
Yes we do...
It might be for Gray?Paulinha & Wharton are not the same kind of player.......
It makes no sense to use one as a stop-gap for the other.
If we are going for a tough beast like 6 who intercepts and tackles well and shields the back 4 then we should go for Hjulmund, We won’t go for him due to price, however. Sporting reportedly want 80 mil euro.
This is the problem. The really good 6s cost big money. So we will go the cut price option because we are cheapskate FC
Because maybe we want some experience in there to manage games alongside the youngsters we have. Or maybe we just can’t get the Wharton or Baleba we want this summer at a realistic price.Why can’t we find that in a player who isn’t 30+, on the decline and also half useful with the ball as well
We need a new left winger. I think we can see with Kudus what a difference that makes even if it's just preseason.
We lacked a progressive passer in the midfield pivot. Cuti ended up doing most of that first half, but I do think Gray can be that player for us. A stopgap might not be the worst option in the short term.
I'm still not sure about Vicario and Kinsky's distribution and composure on the ball.
Anyone know why they weren't in the squad today? Is it to do with the U21 Euro?It’s why I think I rather we spend £90m on Wharton than £50m each on two lesser players. I think we badly need a 6 baller type player. As for the left wing I think Odobert and Tel will need to stake a claim, if they can’t then I question why are they here.

There are lots of Bissouma and Bentancur types, classy ones too, but true 6's are rare.Sorry mate but I'm not buying that theres no other player available on the scale of experience.
