In fairness if we don’t get Diakite there’s some funny business gone on (if what fabrice says is true)
we don’t know for certain that’s the gap - just off the ITK suggestion. Might be further apart. I hope it happens. Ideally quickly!
Bologna lad and Lille lad in and I fancy we are 2-3 signings off a very very fair shot at fighting for survival. Just feels like we have added quality and depth. If we were to go down I would assume we would stroll straight back up afters sales and purchases that summer. Things are looking up for me.
Going from what’s actually been reported we had a €27m bid turned down. I reckon €32-35m + add ons could get it done
I read it as more of a suggestion that it looks like it's very close to done and it would take something odd for someone to move ahead of us in the queue now. Could be wrong.
Mad this potentially is the size of the gap, i know nothing of the players we have brought in other than the YouTube videos & those on here who provide an opinion on ability.....we would have spent an absolute fortune by that point & rightly as you say for a promoted club you hope thats enough to bridge the gap & stay up..... appreciate load like yourself & me who would still bite hand off for 17th place finish are hopefully just being cautious.......as id like to think the solid base we were promoted with then spending a fortune would at least push us up somewhere between 16th & 10th without a major relegation worry..... obviously we could well literally be proved the gap is as big as we feared & fingers crossed have literally just done enough to stay up...... excited to get goong, impressed by the new lads last night & cant wait to be on the train to Hearts on Saturday
Him and Diakite would be an alright CB pairing tbf Can cover RB as well which would allow Huggins to cover RB and LB Ballard and Seelt to then push for a start I do think no matter what Ballard will start the 1sy game of the season - and deservedly so
