Twinport53 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Matt Phillips who went to west brom would of been a class signing for us. Matt Ritchie is great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 CM is worrying, although Tiote and Shelvey would possibly be OK if they can play most of the games. Sums it why we got relegated when you consider we were starting games with Colback and Anita as our central midfielders in the prem. They are still here btw.

Tubestationatmidnight Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 And no goalscorer and a weak as piss defence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odear Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Thauvin is a tidy player and "creative". He created a shed load of chances in the games he was on loan. Why bring someone in when we have that type player under our noses. But maybe he'll be sold.. did he play last night? Another LB would do. It's a very different looking squad to last year already. Although what would concern was the mistakes last night were so very last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I don't want to "play down" a friendly but I feel we will be a different prospect at home. Realistically, we should drop very few points at St James' and should remain unbeaten. It might take some time for us to find our legs away from home.

toontownman Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 If we get what looks like 60m for Sissoko and wijnaldum I'd hope we go out and get what is necessary in another couple of attacking mids, left back, a striker and winger. Wouldn't have a problem with us going straight to the snoggies and bidding 12m for ayala either to give us a truly strong central defense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

peder Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 With all the money from the sales of Wijnaldum and potentialy Sissoko we should see alot more beeing poured into the tranfers Imo. IF Rafa dont get all the money to use for players I would feel disipoainted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 What sort of players are we going to get that will improve us and drop down a division, for £60m? As long as we're building a squad which we are, we'll still get nowhere near spending it all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

relámpago blanco Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 We should bid 60M for James Rodriguez and see what happens. I think he'd be decent in the championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoot Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 It's got to be an attacking midfielder next. Striker and a left back after that. Sell Sissoko, Janmaat and Krul and we'll still be well in profit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 We should spend whatever Rafa thinks we have to for promotion but not spend for the sake of it. Would be helpful not to end up with a financial fair play bill from the Football League next season if we can help it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we sell Sissoko and Winjaldum well have taken about 70 Million this summer. There is no way we will spend enough to go over FFP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Over £80m I think, just saying I don't agree with people saying they'd be disappointed if all the money we bring in isn't spent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I strongly doubt all of it is going to be spent. No point in spending money just for the sake of it once Rafa is happy with the squad. One or two more signings should do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 All depends on the players available. Spending more in January or next summer isn't a problem provided Rafa is happy we have what we need to ease promotion this year. On the face of it another winger and at least one attacking central mid is desperately needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LionOfGosforth Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 100% against selling Krul he's our best keeper by a mile Darlow is fine as cover, too early to be sure on how Sels is going to do, can take keepers from other countries at least a year to settle and adapt, even the good ones (Schmeichel, De Gea etc). Elliott is just average and fat. Unless we get offered silly money, i'd also prefer to keep Krul. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
