Rafalove Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I would prioritise other positions before rb too. Even if we bring Willock in during the summer we still need another cm of quality, a decent left back, a striker to compete with Wilson, not to mention our centre backs aren’t getting any younger either.

He's not going to end up any of the 'big 6' though...Everton/West Ham, possibly Leicester at best. Any of the 'Big 6' will want a 'name' from abroad.

Even if he is, do you really see our lot effectively spending 24m (14m right off on Lewis + 10m fee) on a fullback? More likely offer 10m with Lewis not involved at all, or a straight swap Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And teams still need their homegrown quota, especially after brexit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Would love Aarons but to also keep Lewis and get a proper manager in. You just know in 3-4 years time Lewis is going to be at one of the top clubs, we’ll whinge that he was shit for us (which he has been) but there’s a player in there.

andyc35i Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Someone like Willock is the bare minimum this summer. The central midfield positions are where we need to focus first along with a forward to support Callum like everyone has mentioned Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 That guy is laughable so it’s not even true, but even if it was, that is a laughable fee. I can’t see Aarons going for less than £25-£30m. He’s young and English. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consortium of one Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Outside of the front 3 and perhaps Lewis we have a severe deficit of athleticism. Willock is a great fit (he has to start) and younger center back is also a must. And a back up for Wilson is the bare minimum. Some of the older deadwood has got to go. If the club get taken over the roster overhaul can be accelerated but rather than spend big money, target younger players with potential to start building around.

Joey Linton Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 There's definitely an interest in bringing Arma back this summer. Don't think we should personally, decent championship forward but that's it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be correct however, Joelinton has proved he is not good enough but Armstrong hasn't had a chance, I'd bet my life he'd score more than Joelinton if he had 50 plus games.
