    To clarify. You’re saying that the bad precedent is your view? If so, keep it to yourself. Sorted.

    Agree and point 3 is a great example of why signing players is so important. Re point one - this was the one I was talking about mainly with my mate - saying we need 2/3 signings to have a squad europe ready next season so better of really pushing the boat out this summer!

    I don’t think we need to worry about the players staying now. They are on board and we are going in the right direction.

    This summer window should be exciting and we can hopefully expect some massive talents to improve the first 11 not just the squad.

    We should be going all out for a top center back. Saw links again to that Thiaw defender

    Absolutely. Unless it's Zabarnyi, Semenyo, Huijsen, Ouattara or Kerkez.

    Sure. And Kluivert for the bench. Maybe Scott.

    This would make more sense than selling any of our best players, but I don't think they'll sell him anyway.

    The media is about a year behind when it comes to he clubs position on psr.

    He's one of our true homegrown. Would be better to keep him for future UEFA comps.

    Yeah, but I do think the reality is this is how clubs deal with PSR. It's just another reason among many that is wrong with the rules.

    Remember when fans talked about who was coming in and football? It's all about finances and the football is merely a charade now.

    Soon it'll be as dull as f1

    Nope.

    Good player and clearly an upgrade but 29 this year and I could only see us signing players that age if they're free or massively undervalued.

    Rumours over in Germany that we're seriously interested in the signing of Mainz striker Jonathan Burkardt, to be our Wilson replacement.

    15 goals and 3 assists in 23 Bundesliga appearances this season apparently. Looks and sounds like he'd be a decent addition.

    Some lethal finishes there! Good in the air potentially too so all kinds of finishing there. Actually some of those finishes were isak like.. Goal 9 for example.
