    There won't be any more incomings unless they can sell.

    Amazing that we still have Viera, Zinchenko and Lokonga on the books. How are we soo bad at selling?!

    There seems to be plenty of interest in Kiwior - but I bet we sell him for less than market value... In today's market this guy is a £50m player.

    I was hoping Berta could fix this. Look how much income Chelsea and City make from selling!

    Why the **** have we given Trossard a pay rise?! There was absolutely no reason to do this and now it's going to be even harder to sell him as his contract runs out in 2027. Who the hell thought this was a smart thing to do?

    And then the club will struggle to offload him, yet will be annoyed that we have a reputation for being bad sellers. This is all self-inflicted.

    Honestly, words fail me as to how stupidly we are ran at times. When it comes to attacking players, we are either too slow to move or we keep players for longer than we should.

    The fact Spurs are going to sign Eze and we're still stuck with Martinelli and Trossard is absolutely killing me. They are going to have better attacking depth than us ffs.

    Looks like we're going into the season with Trossard and Martinelli as our LW options then. Great. Another year where we don't do what we're supposed to.

    Your forgetting Madueke, you never know he might just work out on the Left and act as decent back to Saka & Nwaneri on the right. Yes Eze would have been icing on the cake but we can't have everything.

    Rodrygo didn’t even get off the bench last night. Surely there’s got to be something doable there

    Eze would kill Nwaneri's progress. He is not a left wide player at all, he's a creative 10. He's a also an eye catching player, not a player who will make a big difference. Now and then he'll have a huge moment, for sure, but over a season? He got 8 goals and 8 assists last year - pretty good, but not something that warrants the hype.
    I would rather have Nwaneri than Eze.
    Trossard has been given a new contract because he provides good depth and whilst he is not consistent, he can impact games from the bench and play in multiple positions.

    You are too down on Martinelli IMO. A confident Martinelli is one of the best attacking players around.

    The big question is Gyokeres - if he turns out to be the player we want him to be, then we dont need anything else in attack.

    Gyokeres
    Havertz
    Saka
    Martinelli
    Trossard
    Madueke
    Jesus (when back)

    Thats great quality and depth.
