Ikon Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 We have 3 wingers in Aarons, Ritchie and Thauvin with maybe 50 games to play. Not counting Perez as one. Yeah should be enough :lol: Not that there's any need to convince you Mole. Rafa will sign another winger, guaranteed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 There's nothing to suggest that Aarons is good enough anyway according to Mole so I'm surprised he thinks we don't need another winger Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 3 plus strikers who can play on the wing would cut it in most situations tbh. Not many teams have 4 natural wingers, it's just not completely necessary. Like I said if Thauvin stays I don't think we need anymore. Rafa has already alluded to Gayle spending some time on the wing anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just said he hasn't played enough to determine it either way, never said he's crap or anything just that not even a dozen games way too small of a sample size to determine anything. Considering how many players look great for 6 months and disappear off the face of the planet I don't think what I say is anything outlandish either tbh.

joeyt Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 You did say that seen nothing to suggest that Aarons is anything to write home about either. I'd also be amazed if you've seen Thauvin have a good consistent 6 months recently to believe that we can go with the wingers we've got Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Want a creative midfielder now, and a winger with pace after that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 You did say that seen nothing to suggest that Aarons is anything to write home about either. Yes because he played like 7 games I'm sorry that I don't hype every single player based off a few games. Apparently wanted to see a player over a full season before judging him is too much to ask though. That comment sounds bad in isolation without the context though, that's not what I meant in the slightest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubestationatmidnight Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Matt Phillips who went to west brom would of been a class signing for us. 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.

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...
Optimistic Nut 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...
