Would keep Longstaff, Willems and Carroll. Might as well give Darlow a new deal.

 

The rest can go.

 

Keep Willems? He’s not ours? Given the potential cash, are there other options?

No way I'd keep Carroll.

 

He's a crock. Completely finished.

 

Agreed, he's finished at the top level.

He's finished at every level. That's why he was available and without a club. The fact we gave him a contract and thousands of fans celebrated it speaks volumes about the amount of fucking nuggets that follow us.

Carroll for ten games a season > Gayle and/or Muto for ten games a season.

 

:dowie:

 

Why can't we bin all three?

 

We can, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they all go.

Do we really foresee a situation where half the squad is replaced in one window money not being an issue? Would be massive disruption to the squad with so many new recruits to bed in and gel and a risk of failure.

 

Most likely the likes of Manquillo, M Longstaff, Darlow get 1-2 extensions, bring back Murphy from Wednesday to bulk of the squad, plus 4-5 new signings.

Matty should, others no, even under the current regime.

Manquillo is shit, I don't understand this or any love for Manquillo. We should sign Willems

Manquillo has been ok this season. Would keep him as backup and get rid of Yedlin and Krafth.

A new RB for the starting XI is needed though.

Didn't realise including loans we've got 11 players leaving including 2nd and 3rd keepers unless extensions are made (most aren't worth an extension). We need to be very active in the next window.

On the one hand that's concerning, but I had read some industry experts on Twitter predicting a significant price drop in terms of transfer fees this summer. If we have an owner willing to invest significantly we could garner could value for money.

If 150 mil is the amount we have to spend I would Do the following business

 

in:

Aarons-£25,000,000

Willems-£6,000,000

Camavinga-£55,000,000

Tonali-£55,000,000

Fraser-free

Under-£25,000,000

Callejon-free

Then try and bring in any of Cavani/giroud/Mertens on a free

Out:

Clarke-£8,000,000

Yedlin-4/5,000,000

Shelvey-£7/8,000,000

Hayden-6/7,000,000

Ritchie-£8,000,000

Gayle-£8,000,000

 

 

Probably got a few valuations wrong but fuck it

It's been a good few years since we've seen FM inspired shopping lists.  :lol:

Was listening to a podcast Someone posted with Duncan Castles a few days ago where they were talking about him. Apparently he’s very similar to H Kane

 

From YouTube scouting he has a bit of Drogba about him in terms of the power coupled with a bit of pace with good finishing

I understand both comparisons to a degree. He is physically aggressive and strong, but really quite a pure goal scorer, and uses his physical gifts to hassle defenders and run the channels so he can try to get behind the defence and score. Not really the target man that Drogba became, but still young of course. Very excited about him as a prospect, Nigeria hasn't had a real striker for ages and seems to constantly turn out wide players, fairly rubbish link forwards or talents that struggle for a real position like Musa and Iheanacho. Osimhen looks a different breed to those and would be a big signing, imo.
