    Think Minteh just needs to stay where he is and we just put up with it this year. I'd rather he come in, 20 years old, ready to step in. Too much pressure at 19 because it's not going well isn't good.

    And besides, we are a big club, we need to be signing a proper RW and letting Minteh develop, getting rid of Murphy in the process. Seems clear to me they want a 1st choice, sub and young prospect in every position. Where they're struggling, maybe with FFP, maybe with Howe's misplaced affection, is getting players in to strengthen the first team.

    We need a better first choice RW, LB, CB as a minimum, then probably a CDM because the current shape with Bruno there isn't working, then finally a decent prospect at CF and GK to be able to come in for Pope and Isak regularly instead of the likes of Dubravka and Wilson.

    Agree, although I'd go CF ahead of CDM.
    Wilson is shot and we need cover up top. Currently have decent options in midfield, but threadbare at CF.

    It’s been circulated on a few foreign twitter things. They say the release clause is 115m euros and that PSG have been following him for a while now and ready to make the move this month.

    Personally can’t see it happening as his replacement can’t play until August

    They could get Phillips on loan......But...... that requires a change in tactic I feel.
