Yeah agreed and will be interesting to see what happens next season. Like do they get an experienced LB and rotate him with Hall? What happens with Targett etc?

Promoted club would take a gamble though surely?

A striker like Sesko, a new RW and a couple free transfers like Tosin and Kelly is doable. I agree though I don’t see where the funds are available for any other major signings.

It’s almost like Howe knows what he’s doing with him. Classy on the ball, can attack, just needs to develop his defensive side and develop naturally over time.

A number 2 striker who doesn’t miss 2/3rds of the season and a game changing RW who scores goals together with some solid defensive back up and we’re looking pretty good really.

I think we need more than that to be honest, greater depth. Just look at City and Arsenals squad depth. But we have the makings of a seriously good side.

True, ‘availability’ is the key

Agreed

Id be surprised if we shell out major cash for a keeper this summer

Big pressure on Man U now. Spurs are crumbling but will probably just hold onto 5th.

I think that’s why he’ll ultimately go, well and his fitness record.

I may have two tickets which would be ace

Yeah it’s game changing, literally. Can change things up and keep the intensity going too.

They’ve faded badly recently and the manager looks to be away. We’re building some confidence again. Man U play Arsenal that weekend too.

Stupid goal to give away

And probably a striker

Away form is dogshit, need to turn that around and win today if we want 6th. Man U will no doubt drop some points v Palace and Arsenal but Chelsea are hitting some form. Win today and put Brighton away at home and we’ll be looking good for 6th.

Sure but the club has to box clever with its spending. RW and striker will cost serious cash. Assuming it happens it makes sense to me at least.

Yeah wasn’t Robertson signed from Hull?

Where do people see his role next season when he’s back? I mean we’ve only seen him in a few games so it’s difficult to assess his role fully. I guess if Bruno stays the question is how Howe uses them both in midfield. He is the proverbial “like a new signing”.

Cheers thanks for that. I guess the added complication for us is the metro underneath and the road which ambulances use but architects can do wonders thesedays.

Extremely short sighted viewpoint. Both are premier league starters, Kelly is still young, is fast and will only get better and there’s the bonus that he can fill in at LB if needed too. Tosin has qualities we lack I.e pace and would be a solid addition. Signing both on free transfers bolsters the defence (and improves our back line speed) until Botman returns and allows significant outlay on positions like striker and RW., positions which will be expensive.

Anyone with any construction knowledge know how long (roughly) would completion of the Gallowgate extension take if it was cleared to go ahead? Did I see 8000 extra seated mooted?

Spot on, 100k per week ?

He's exactly what Arsenal need/want but we took a punt on him and they didn’t. Realistically they probably know he’s not for sale currently.
