    Man Utd can go do one if they think their getting £40m for Henderson like.

    Out of all of them Onana would be the one I'd go for from Ajax for nowt. Only problem is AFCON every 2 years.

    Isn’t the Afcon switched/switching to the summer now?

    I hope so, coz its a joke as it currently stands. Then again we've decided to switch the world cup to accommodate that footballing hotbed in Qatar.

    Top 10 and a good cup run. As long as there is progress, I will be happy. I don't expect miracles.

    Top 8 max, but at the same time, top 10 would be acceptable.

    Time will provide a solution there. In the next 12 months quite a few on your 'to shift' list will see their contracts run out. I'd personally like to see the club either loan them out for a small fee or to get wages covered or just cancel the contracts and pay them up all together.

    I’d like to set a new target for next season after our last two games…well last 3 actually. I’d like us to be absolutely ****ing battering teams 3 and 4 nil week in week out. Not sure I can cope with our nail biting single goal margin victories we are being served up of late. As satisfying as they are when they are over, and despite the dressing room panoramic landscape massive group selfie which we now appear to have come accustomed to we need to kick on now like, sign Mbappe and Haaland and get games well and truly put to bed before half time!!!!

    I'd definitely consider keeping targett a priority. He's PL proven, and he's slotted in well and will be the best left back I've seen here since the Shearer era. Even better than Enrique since he wont take 3 years to get good.

    If we can get him for £10-15m that's a good bit of business. He should be the main LB option we pursue, as we wont get a better LB that's so well adjusted to our side.

    My target would be 8th. With the amount of money we'll spend and our current form, I'd say it's a fair target.

    We literally could finish 9th this season.

    I'd be happy with anywhere in the top half after these last few years of dross. A couple of half decent signings, hopefully a good fit striker and we'll be up for it next season.
