Defo does appear something happening with Mundle, that shields game post has defo gone today. I’d missed the Fab post about the contract which was just abit weird. Even weirder to the sign Laurinete today. Which credit to the club, if he is off getting a replacement sorted before he’s gone is sensible business.

Does feel like he’s never settled anywhere Mundle, and not sure another move abroad is the way to go. Would probably rip up the Dutch league though.
 
He's elite and in his prime though. I'd be shocked.

I guess if they were resigned to losing him, getting him out to Saudi for 25% more is better than leaving him in the Premier League and receiving less for him.

Either way they can’t replace him, and Liverpool have nicked the best replacement.

They will go for Sesko or Vlahovic if it happens, both very good but neither close to Isak.

Aye Duran was the same, obviously not the same level, yet. But he's already left Saudi.

If he does leave, they're running out of alternatives.
 
I do understand the idea of the need to upgrade across the park. However the potential removal of key, big personalities on which we’ve build our success is a concern. We’re perhaps on to lose Neil, Patto, Cirkin, Mundle to add to the previous removal of Jobe and Mepham. It’d also be 6 British players being replaced by 6 foreign lads. I get the aim for improving quality levels, and the financial difference is what it is, but the alchemy of creating a cohesive squad who will lock into what we need to do this season is something that needs to be considered - and is harder to predict. Massive change does concern me.
I am with you mate. It was 2 minutes ago we were all in love with a group that literally gave everthing the possibly could and took the motto to the end literally. That was based on being a team. Sometimes it is easy to forget you need lads to build a team ethic before anything else.

I have faith in Regis though. I genuinely think it was he who brought that ethic and team bond out of everyone. He made huge efforts in everything to be about togetherness and connections. I think he will be doing that right now with the new lads. They are mostly young lads as well and I think they will naturally look for connections in the group. And I would bet my pocket money lads like ONien and Isidor are making the camp a lively one. And I also bet lads like Neil and Hume are making sure they have the right standards in training.

We can build that same spirit again though, at a higher level.

Something at the club brings them all together, a large core remains.

The new lads look full of life and smiles in training already.

Agree with every bit of this. Also Reinildo as a newby will set some standards from Simeone and seems a humble character himself. Sadiki and Diarra both look like good characters as well.

So I agree with the concern at mass change but at the same time think our recruitment of personalities has been good.

I think that's what Speakman et al look at as well as ability now. Any players they bring in have to fit in with the dynamic of the players already there
