He’s been deployed off the wing mostly. Definitely a left side attacking midfielder rather than a direct winger.
Good player indeed but not sure he would be effective on left in our system.
We do need some more deep completions. Whatever the fuck they are.
Musiala and Isak in with Trossard and Jesus out in the summer.
I wouldn’t bother doing anything in January.
What kind of budget do you you think we’ll have?
Should be a decent pot after we fuck Zinny, Kiwior, Nelson, Trossard (respectfully) and Jesus off. Then the Kroenke’s can dip there hand in their deep pockets.
If you do that, you would need to invest in a backup defender because there is no way we are relying on Tomiyasu.
I think one big forward signing would be fine.
Give me JD Vance… I meant, Fullkrug
Isn’t it Fuhrich?
I’d be fine with Saliba, Gabriel, Timber, White, Calafiori, Toni, MLS, Partey and Rice as defensive options. Ideally, you add a full back for depth but I’d sacrifice it for Isak and Musiala.
Not with Jesus and Martinelli looking scared of the opposition goal.
I’m still unsure why you are so convinced we are going to have a low transfer budget again this summer…based on another years CL income, and the fact that the fee for Rice would have been paid off, I think we will be spending big.
I think @Truth_hurts has been quite conservative…I want:
- Viktor Gyokeres or Alexander Isak
- Khvicha Kvaratskhelia or Nico Williams
- Martin Zubimendi
- A new defender
- A backup GK
Yeah just the 400m mate
And if we have some money left over…got a few ideas on how we can spend it too!
How’s one big signing imply a low transfer budget?
If we spend 100-200m is that low to you?
Let Kroenke get another loan to buy another barn??
Total spend or net spend?
Say 200m total spend.
Mid-range with 200m…I think that’s the minimum.
I actually think if we can go on and win the league this season, that will encourage the club to go out and spend big to reinforce the teams position. Unless there are some bargains out there in the summer, we ain’t getting much change from £50m for a new defender and a backup GK, and leaving aside my wishlist I honestly think we need a striker, winger and midfielder too.
