Id add Maddison to that too.

We have been linked a lot in Spanish Press to Ferran Torres..Would love if it was Kulusevski though

Could see Palace selling Guehi and getting Lacroix and Madeuke out of the 65 million

You would think they would have agreed or known his personal terms before they flew the whole way over..The Stengs transfer fell through too..They sound like chancers

We need to be ruthless in getting players out the door..Not to the extent of Chelsea where Gallagher and Chalobah are banished to reserves/U21's.. We will never move forward otherwise.Al-Rumayyan said he wants us to be Number 1, we wont be unless we act like a big club

Thats fair..I love Almiron.. but 6 assists in 5.5 years is terrible..If Almiron starts this season then all the pressure is on Gordon and Bruno etc to provide assists for Isak if our right winger cant..He is a workhorse and will run forever but his main job as a winger is to be a "door opener" as Souness would say and thats not happening

Not for a MLS club? Id live to get 12-15 for Almiron but no other clubs bar Saudi have been linked..Do we think Almiron has another purple patch in him ?

Yes, I would be happy with 8.5 for Almiron..He wont move to Saudi for 20-25 million..I dont see anybody else after him..Its the same with Wilson..We might value them at 20 million but we havent been offered it

Our inability to move on players will eventually mean us having to sell one of our "purples"

If we turned down 8.5 million for Almiron then I dont want Eales or Howe to mention PSR affecting us ever again..We had a chance to move on players (Trippier in Jan) and now Almiron and refused both..Cant have it both ways

Interesting that Madueke was with Spurs Youths at the same time that Mitchell was at Spurs

20 goals for Spain at the age of 24 is a good record..would prefer Raphinha or Bowen but looks like our big money signing will be Guehi

Fulham have lost Tosin and Ream so may be looking at Carlos and Andersen

That says we have bid 15 million Euros plus variables for Torres.. Torres/ Madeuke or Kulusevski would improve us

Think it will be Ferran Torres we end up with now Olmo has signed for Barcelona

I always remember Fraser getting sent off at Sheff Utd under Bruce and he having a big smile on his face walking off..Turned me off him after that

Surely theres money to spend or we wouldnt have been in for Olise ( unless we were never in for him)

2 goals in 44 career appearances..Im all for unearthing Championship talent though..Could be a few diamonds in the rough

Unless its waiting for Milan to buy Pavlovic before they sell Thiaw

Love Almiron, Took 11 months to score his 1st goal for us, kind of tells its own story.. Was huge for us though getting 4th place and for his goal against PSG .. Will wish him well for his work rate and his attitude

Hopefully some agreement with Brighton on Joao Pedro

We could have done with DCL last season just to close out games holding up the ball .PSG away and Everton at home spring to mind where we couldnt hold the ball up and keep possession..Late goals conceded in both games

Murphy has a good delivery in him but hes too weak.. Loses any 50/50 that he contests or is afraid to contest..Maybe its harsh but we cant afford passengers if our journey is to go to the very top, let alone 4 passengers each lineup

Big Summer for Eddie.. Need at least 4/5 in the door..Almiron, Wilson, Longstaff, Murphy offer nothing anymore..If not , next season could be Eddies last in charge

Maybe its just me but I dont rate him as highly as others..50 odd games , no goals
