    Ffs dreaming of amad now

    in truth i don’t see it, despite man united being a joke by their usual standards, mbeumo ending to over spurs tells you the pull and attractiveness to players

    BUT IM DREAMING

    Exactly so. Good players will only get better among other good players.

    Spirit is the key, and the scenes in the video the club put out show it is there in super abundance. You can't fake some of that stuff.

    So long as we concentrate our money into a smaller number of higher quality players it should still create room for them. Needs to remain a big part of the club. It’s the thing that increases our ceiling as a club.

    Bobb needs to move from City. In my opinion. Time to play. Very talented.

    Yep. Particularly last close season, when the overwhelming clamour was for some experienced Championship manager and players .

    Sticking to their guns in the way they did was extraordinarily impressive.

    100%, I think KS and co will be very careful about the personalities that they are bringing in due to that

    The part cut off….
    but if they do go back down they are still very strong.
    Goalkeeper Bulka close to a switch, plus high-level centre back, another centre midfielder and striker amongst priorities.

    @Scout73 where would you rank Bakwa from Strasbourg compared to those other right wing options?

    I rate the other 3 higher tbh, I like Bakwa but those other lads know the PL and I'd like a few signings that have played in the PL before

    Diarra for £26.5m as the initial fee, you’d assume the additional that rises is to £30m will be if we stay up.

    so worst case scenario and we go down. He’s extremely unlikely to have had such a bad season that we don’t recoup MOST of that. And that’s worst case.

    one decent season as a highly rated 22 year old could see us getting bids of £50m+ for him next summer.

    this feels like a huge outlay and maybe im just wearing an optimistic hat today but I can’t see how we don’t make our money back, serious injuries permitting

    It wouldn't be surprise me if it was someone like that

    CB is vital so I could see us going for a top draw one and then either signing an experienced one or a real exciting youngster (I'd prefer this option)

    Has someone found the batteries for the magic carpet?

    Despite my seeming reticence at times, Diarra is quite a coup. Feela very much like a signing where top 4 level clubs happy for us to takr him, give him 2 years, and scoop him up for double when they are happy he is prem proven. Him and the keeper would be great starts. Need to get a wriggle on though, Ndong still our second biggest tfr to date...

    Re Gendouzi people will laugh. I am not 100% on him. Not a bad player at all, just not all I think he could be. Defensively he can be got at and isnt some form of defensive master. I dont take well to players that seem to find trouble in an empty phone box either. Maybe I will love his scrappy do attitude when he is the red and white. There are better options in Italy than him imo, should we want another CM.

    Whoever they sign is fair play though, they seem to have this summer very well planned ahead of time. Getting deals done before pre season is really important imo.

    Now, u21 final anyone? Haway England, time to shine brightly again. Harvey to bag a hatrick and in his interview announce he is now a Mackem.
