True, however, I would be expecting the club to buy better than what we already have unless it’s for back up which Gordon definitely wouldn’t be.
If be a bit concerned if we went into a season with Gakpo as our best option on the left tbh. I think Nunez is better on the left too btw so maybe we just need to sign a couple of strikers instead
Itll be more down to how skit uses them now. All bets are off based on prior performance. Will he get more bodies in the box for crosses? Who knows. If we want headers the nunez and Jota go 9. We need to see what's what first
So no new cbs. Gomez, van dijk, konate, quansah and van den Berg are the 5 with room for movement out. We will see.
Happy enough with that. I guess questions are where is TAA going to play to work out if we need another RB (especially with his contract situation) or is Bradley /gomez seen as enough? Do we want attacking right back or a more solid one which Gomez or even Sepp could do? Key area is still a proper DM to eventually take over from Endo and partner Mac in CM.
I have to say that I don't feel thst we should be taking much from this Euros as England set up so poorly to use trent and we're so negative that I don't see it as representative. I still don't think trent does well with his back to the opponents goal and we need him turned to get anything out of him. I really could only see him playing rb for real and they wont put up with him not running back. If he wants to be the next carvahal he can fire away but like others if he wants to be the man and idolised etc then that's not coming with a move away. I'm also not one for the press speculation on this as it feels like a salah type press agenda. We will see. If I were advising trent I'd say go back to rb and focus on getting up and down the line and providing assists and stop worrying about other things. If slot plays the double p8vot then imo that gives trent license to join the box at the back post and score the goals he craves. I see absolutely no reason to move trent personally. Just keep the width
Pearce in the Athletic is reporting that jaros is to be promoted to 3rd keeper so no keeper buys this summer. If kelleher goes he might be no 2 amd Davies no 3
The only good news out of transfer season is that nobody else is really buying anyone yet. I suspect that once the euros are done, we’ll get plenty of movement…..good and bad
Indeed. It will be silly season soon enough. I do expect some stuff to happen for us, no idea what mind.
Maybe…..unless our hand is forced; Diaz, VvD, Trent, etc I suspect that our outgoing may be more than we would ideally like. Edwards will not be relaxed about several big name contracts running down.
Not on the list list. Nico Williams. Forget it. Riccardo Calafiori. Forget it. Whatever that young lad from France is called. Yoro, Yeah forget it. New rumours. Joao Neves. Most likely agent. But you know us and benfica
Rumours around wolves players Joao Gomes anyone? Rayan Ait-Nouri anyone? I wonder if we could be arrange some swaps with them t9 get ik on the ffp dodging?
Not a transfer rumour but we have managed to get a nice pay day from sell on fee on kamil grabara. He was a keeper for us up to 2021 and we got him as a 16 year old and sold on. 2.3 mil. No bad is it. Goalkeeping academy has now got quite the list of players getting a pro career out of the time they come to us and are profitable for us.
