Neither have been particularly impressive in that first half. But that could be more down to the fact neither team seem to really want to attack the game, which is understandable given it's the first leg.

 

I think Gnonto would cost a bit more but then again it will depend if either of these teams go up as well.


Tbf to Rowe he’s been out for four months and it’s his first game back.

Just watched some of the Valencia game, the Georgian keeper is quality. Brilliant for a one on one off his line and made a fantastic save from a massively deflected shot. Got named man of the match .

If I could compare him to anyone it’s probably Manuel Neuer - without being as over confident as Wor Manuel is - he’s a quality keeper 

 

That RW position we have to address in the summer - good pros Murphy and Miggy - but they simply aren’t at the level of Isak and Gordon 
 

Kelly and Tosin buy us a lot of wriggle room in the market

Going full FM mode but I’m hoping for something like:
 

Kelly (free)

Tosin (free)

One of Olise/MGW/Williams (£50m +-£10m)

Rowe (£20m and loaned back to Norwich for a year)

Valencia keeper (£50m)

Young backup striker with a lot of potential (£25m)

 

Total spend c£150m

 

Out: 

Miggy

Targett

Dummett

Ritchie

Hendrick

Fraser

Hayden

Lewis

Karius

Dubravka

Wilson(?)

 

If we get anywhere close to £30m for the lot of them and all their wages off the books then it’s a dream scenario. Think we’ll end up subsidising a lot of their exits though.

Kelly 

Tosin

Dabast - £12m

MGW - £50m

Mbuemo - £35m

F Chiesa - £30m

Valencia keeper

 

Miggy and Wilson big departures 

 

I can only dream….

Victor Roque definitely leaving Barca this summer. He fits the bill for a Wilson replacement surely.

Get agent Bruno on the case

On loan or permanent? 

Agent saying permanent - not interested in loan move

Was 39 at Brunos last Brazilian club side.

 

Would love him here, can play across the front 3 but has potential to be world class.

Very strange goings on at Barca - I wonder if they just can't afford to play him? i.e money due based on appearance.

I assume they are financially in a poor state, I reckon most of their team is available at the right price.

 

The reality they probably have a youngster from la mesia who is as good as Vitor is tbh.

It depends really. He could be the number 6 we don't have or a superior replacement for Longstaff.  I think he's one of the players we'd warm to very quickly if he played for us.

Still don’t get this view. GK aside, which position significantly impacts our performance the most when first options are out?

 

Fullbacks - not really, no. 

Centre halves - I don't think so, Burn and Lascelles have both put in shifts

LW - nope

RW - arguably but not to the extent that we become a poorer side, just less affective in attack.

Striker - not really, but the risk comes from how injury prone our back up is

 

 

Midfield- aye. If either Bruno or Joelinton are out we become a significantly easier team to beat. 

 

Midfield absolutely needs reinforcing. I will die on this hill.

Burn and Lascelles are one of the reason we are not a top top team. So are Longstaff, Andersson, Dubravka and Almiron. All these need upgrading. 
 

I agree midfield needs reinforcing. But Gallagher is a 50-60 million player who is an England International. We are not going to buy him to put him ( or Brazil International or Italy International, both 50-60 million players) on the bench. We are nowhere near that yet. 
 

We have Almiron and Murphy RW and aging Schär as the only fit top level CB. And injury prone Wilson as the only option for CF. 
 

edit. Tonali is Longstaff replacement. I understand buying Gallagher if Bruno leaves

Not convinced gallagher would fetch 50 million though I might be plain off on that - think Gallagher would be a tremendous asset for us, box-to-box with real defensive capability and energy seems right up Eddie's alley

 

Edit to add I don't think Chelsea will be looking to move him

Problem with Gallagher imo is that he isn't anything new to our team, yeah I think he's good as a high pressing, high stamina 8. But we have more than a few of those, yeah I think he'd improve us, but for the money + what we get I don't see it
