Don't believe that article at all, but because of all the talk about losing Bruno/Isak, I never thought of who our 3rd most valuable player is, and I think that is Gordon Guess the journalists are sick of mentioning Bruno and Isak!

Reckon Tosin and Botman will be out main CB pairing in a year or 2 for the foreseeable (on the basis Schar starts to age) Or think we could recruit another in the near future? Only reason I ask is there was a few Diomande links, who looks like he'll go onto big things

ECL as long as City win the FA Cup A point against Man U would now guarantee us 7th

If we manage to get these 2, do people think that's our business done in defence?

Being in Europe will increase our revenue, coefficient and we'd likely be more attractive to players Plus, we need to learn and get experience of playing twice a week with European games

What did he say?

He's been unreal for us and I really like him, but I can't understand people's reluctance to sell him if we got a sensible offer, we really need our second striker to have a better fitness record, especially with Isak hardly being bulletproof either

Fuck me

I love Pope and definitely don't want us to sign Ramsdale for the reasons others have said I like it when keepers are a calming presence; Allison for Liverpool is as good as it gets lately for a keeper imo. Not a fan of the weird / eccentric types like Ramsdale It would be good if our next keeper does have some ability with the ball at their feet, mainly so we can slow the ball down and keep a bit more possession in certain times

Fucking hell 😂

Doubt we'd have a third striker, most teams don't, likely we'd rely on one of our wingers to cover as third choice, which should be sufficient

No, but if we have 2 strikers and a Gordon etc as back up, dont you want them both to be reliable? If we could get a decent fee for a 30+ year old Wilson and replace him with an understoody to Isak, who'd presumably be able to support and learn across the 50-60 games we play, I'd think we'd be in a better position, if not short term then definitely long term imo Plus, Isak always seems knackered after 60 mins and has his own injury issues this season, there's a massive role for our second striker to play, whether Wilson or a new one

True, though Wood was absolutely shite and being available shouldn't mean they aren't good Wood and Wilson are canny old, you'd hope there'd be a few young, talented and hopefully non injury-pone strikers we've scouted and could consider Personally I wish we got Joao Pedro, think he was 35m and would have probably fitted quite well in the team when Isak has been injured

I've not seen him ever, but he is rated incrediblely highly from all the twitter experts, and apparently wanted by the very top teams, like you say a dreamy coup if it comes off

You get ones that are reliable in terms of fitness across a full season, though

Aye, always has his head up, massive loss for us in games we want / should keep the ball

Didn't realise how good Musiala is, wow Kim seems shite, remember he was highly regarded when BM got him

Well said

Sick of every side playing decent football now

Yeah good point, can certainly think of more quality CB's than I can strikers, RW etc Though I do wonder if we have someone in mind for each position who we apparently followed for a long time, like we did Gordon, Isak, Tino etc where we are prepared to go big to get them

Diomande links today, probably a load of shite Would love him, though can't help but think a club at the very top would likely be after him

Gallagher ain't no McDominate super sub 😉

Out of interest, anyone who has watched and rates Tosin able to tell me how he plays? Is he aggressive or more of an organiser, does he have the pace our CB's lack etc Can't say I've ever paid attention to him!

Aye have noticed that, unsure whether that's just his fitness limit, or if it's because he's had many recurring injuries since being here and he hasn't been able to have a solid length of time to get as fit as a Gordon etc

Its disgraceful imo. Not sure why it doesn't get much heat like FFP does Maybe because in most leagues, it's pretty much the same teams who make the CL so no one cares
