How on earth is Luke shaw in there? he hasn´t played a game for a couple of months...

Tripps should be nowhere near if it is on form...

Out of the above, a ball playing keeper, right winger and striker are our top big money targets this summer. This is assuming we get Tosin and/or Kelly...

Exactly what we do not need and what we already have here

Only thing he lacks is real pace. He isn't slow but you can see he struggles to keep up with the quicker wingers

Tripps, longstaff and kraft were championship at best tonight. Too many chances squandered and far too loose in midfield on transitions. Really dissapointing apart from Gordon, who made wan bissaka look very ordinary.

I still think we need to sell Wilson for 20M or thereabouts and spend a bit on a second striker. Isak can´t play the whole season himself, he needs a quality back-up, or even partner to mix things up up front. We need reliability up front and not such injury prone back up...

I didn´t think manu were so bad against arsenal yesterday, they put up a lot of fight but just didn´t have the quality up front and in the middle. If Fernandes; Rashford and any defender (what they are saying) is back then it will be a tough game. Would bring big Joe back into the fold for at least the first sixty mins, then replace with anderson. Rest of team sort of picks itself (murphy or barnes??)

Will be nice to see big joe back on the pitch at some point in the game (i would start him). Would like to see a middle three of bruno joe and anderson, see if they gel. Very dynamic and forward facing midfield!

Not a chance! Big money for Athletic Bilbao won´t even reach the 100k per week mark. I have a good contact there and no way is Nico on that money, his brother Iñaki will be close to the 100k mark...

Yep, I tried to watch a few of his podcasts and both him and the other guy come across as so arrogant and self centered, i.e. looking to showcase themselves rather than the interviewee...

Palace just strolling through them. Eze or olise? Would love either of them, would need a system change though

Would be nice to see him back between the posts for one of the upcoming games.

This is the perfect summary for me too...

Can´t believe the amount of stupidly undervalued quotations from the press about how much it would cost Arsenal to buy him!!! Even seen some 150 million quoted for both him and Bruno ... they obviously have a huge agenda to try and unsettle them. We cannot sell either of them to any of our prem rivals, it would be sporting suicide. I could just about bear it if Real madrid came in and wanted one of them, but City or Arsenal would really get my goat, it would just prolong the time we would take to compete for the premier league... if we were to sell Isak or Bruno, it would have to be 150 million each or thereabouts... Caicedo/Enzo for 110M apiece, Osimen quoted at around the 120M mark.

Come on Palace!!!

I though he looked nervous for the first ten-fifteen minutes and then played a stormer. He is only a kid and will get much better with more experience. Really like his passing ability and confidence with the ball, reminds me of Trippier but without the defensive toolkit completely in place. Was not at all convinced when he first played but I am much more confident with what I have seen lately, good tasty humble pie!!!

Manu look knackered with Palace (in top form) and Arsenal next, we control our own destiny and can only get better with injured players back in reckoning. Chelsea have the easiest run-in but are still a couple of points behind us.

Ketsbaia... aah, those were the days

I think Kelly and him would be very astute signings as we need to spend big in other positions and we have a good central defence for next year albeit both injured. Both are very highly rated, the fact they play in bottom/mid table teams has absolutely no influence imo, with eddie's input they will step up another level. Both have pace, an ingredient we sorely lack with our high line pressing. No brainer for me!

Would like us to sign two "purples" to come in and make an impact on the first team and then two or three "upcoming" youngsters to add some stardust to our bench.

Aye, Tosin and Kelly would be an awesome start to silly season

Loan him out next season so he comes back with game experience. He wont get minutes with our main boys back in midfield

Manu: palace, arsenal, nufc, brighton Tot: chelsea, liverpool, burnley, city

Just looked at the remaining games for Tottenham, Manu and ourselves. If we win three of our four and maybe draw the other I am sure we would finish fifth. Both of the others have really hard run ins and I could see them getting very little points...
