It won’t happen with our owners, but that’s the type of transfer window that’s needed.

When I look at our main squad.

Vicario, Kinsky, Porro, Spence, VDV, Romero, Dragusin, Danso, Udogie, Bentancur, Sarr, Bissouma, Bergvall, Gray, Maddison, Kulusevski, Solanke, Odobert, Richy, Son, Moore, Tel.

Its mostly ok, I think Ange has massively underperformed with it in the league. What is lacking is Kane, Bale, Modric, Ginola, Gazza, that extra bit of quality that is so game changing. We'd be better buying 3 elite players (DM, Wide forward, striker) and making no other signings. we have a 6/10, 7/10 across the board squad but no players who can consistently elevate.

Eketeke, Mbuemo and a top DM and we'd be laughing. make no other signings even if we sell Romero, just put the house on quality. The issue is we'd rather sign 6-7 ok players than 2-3 elite ones.

Reason being, wages. Until we address our aversion to paying elite wages (see: top 4 wages), we simply won't climb the table in a material way again. The days of finding cheap young players who become elite before they sign those outrageous wages are over (ala modric, bale, kane, Erikson, Dembele, Dele, in that order).

Ndombele really torched our club for the better part of a decade. Burned once, forever scorned.
 
1st and foremost, I want players who want to be here, even if they think it may be a stepping stone but still want to be here.
2nd, quality purchases, take a proper look at the last 3 years and see if the is stability, reliability and consistency
3rd. buy in areas we a weak in, defensive midfield is a priority for me.

Wharton, Eze, Ait Norai and Mbeumo… Devine back

Ten or so out, Davies, Richy, Biss, Tel, Odobert, Son, Werner, Solomon, Reggy, Gil, Veliz, Gray, Yang, Phillips…. Could get 80M for them

- Davies, Tel, Werner, Reggy = £0
- Odobert, Gray, Yang (loan), Phillips (loan) = Not going anywhere..... Contrary to your recurring mantra;player development is a thing.


Richy, Biss, Son, Solomon, Gil, Veliz........??? ........80m?
