Reading Dibling has a price tag of 40m. Five clubs considering a bid, Utd, Everton, Forest, WHU and us?
If there's any truth in this then I'd put us as favourites to get him.

Please no, not the dibling!

Serious question marks over all of them

CB
- Romero doesn't wanna be here, likely to miss a substantial chunk of matches (again)
- VdV is a 3-month injury waiting to happen
- Ben Davies should do a Sonny really
- Danso is a good deputy
- Drag been a waste of 25mil, Chiriches regen
- Vusko only a kid but exciting
- Takai...lol
- Archie ain't a CB

RB
- Porro's G/A contributions are decent, just needs to up his defensive game
- Djed has had max 10 good games in a Spurs shirt
- Archie ain't a RB

LB
- The longer Udogie is out, the better
- Djed: see above
- Imagine Ben vs any decent RW
- Archie ain't a LB

DM
- Fulham star & Bayern reject
- Biss was great vs FC Bløgjurk & AS Duiterdam
- Bentancur will think Sonny's still here when he sees Yang
- Is Archie a DM?

CM
- Thank god for Bergvall
- Sarr's make or break season
- Devine


AM
- Madders must stay fit & focused the whole season
- MGW
- Swedish snail


RW
- Kudus: let's hope Season 3 really is better than Season 2, as a great Ozzy Greek philosopher once said
- Tap-in merchant

LW
- Tel: 40mil people...40mil...

Attack is mid table level
 
If there's a Son replacement/if they are already here I do feel like Frank has to figure out how to make the most of what Maddison does on the left wing when we're in possession, feel like last season we ended up with a little triangle of Maddison, Son and Udogie/Spence being all kind of static there. Can see Tel or Johnson being more of a second striker from the wing when we're in possession and Maddison is on the pitch.
 
Hear me out here.

Seeing the Son drop off was sad, particularly his loss of pace. Now was the right time for him to depart on a high as EL trophy winning captain.

Kane is a different sort of player who doesn’t rely on pace. But he’s only 1 year younger than Son and if as has been widely reported he wants to beat Shearer’s PL goal record before he retires, he will need 2-3 injury free seasons to do it.

Now is the time for him to come back to the PL. We could do with a goalscoring 9 with the jury out frankly on whether Solanke or Richie are good enough. A cheeky bid to our mates at Bayern?

I would be keen. Would hate to see him at ManU or Newcastle who both desperately need a quality 9.
Was thinking this morning that if Kane doesn't come back this season, I don't think he ever does.
Buuut, I also wonder if there's a conversation to be had between him and the club if another PL team does try to sign him. At any point.
 
I don't think we're even remotely interested in a CF.
But yes as it stands we're comfotably around the 7th - 8th best attack in the pl. Some potential growth in there but all the other teams ahead of us have that also.

Going to be a hell of a lot of tight games this season, even against the bottom teams.
[/QUOTl

Don't see how you can say we are the 7th or 8th best attack.
We have just lost our (Son) our best performer last year.
Johnson and Solanke are well below average in terms of goals, assists and also creativity.

Tel,Odobert and Kudus are unproven.
There is potential there of course.

Kulu is injured : he is creative and does ok with goals and assists. But probably the most proven atm

Our defenders are well above average going forward and chip jn with goals and assists

But ultimately you want your front 3/4/6 to be prolific- and outs have not been.
