Dawson was a good player for them last season but that Aguerd sounds like a step up. Lingard potentially too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillingtonMag Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 We'll finish comfortably ahead of West Ham like Moyes has took them as far as he can take them, only way is down for that lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gleebals Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 We are not going to finish above City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal or Tottenham. I feel we are very much in the pack of Man U, West Ham, Leicester and possibly Villa if they get it together. Hence, finishing above them would be a great achievement. 6th to 10th should be the target. With the current front line, would say more like 9th-10th. Bring in a couple more 6th to 8th could be achievable. We sinmply cannot go into the season with just Wilson and Wood and our current RW players.

BlazeT44 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 We will certainly benefit this year by not playing European football, whereas some of those we are targeting may be. Huge difference playing Saturday vs Thursday and Sunday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't don't even think we've put a dint in our budget yet. We've probably got £120+ million of attacking flair yet to arrive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Genuinely think Man City, Liverpool, and Spurs are the only "untouchables" this season, as it stands. The other "big three" need to do some serious business, still. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we have a season that doesn't work out because of injuries or bad luck etc, I don't mind as long as it's obvious we're pushing in the right direction. I'd absolutely hate it if we immediately started getting arsey about not finishing top 10 as a fan base. This! Can't help but feel it's going to take a fucking huge amount of time for my feeling of sheer gratitude to the new owners for freeing us of Ashley to even look like wearing off tbqh. Some of the demanding shite I see on social media is frankly mindblowing to me. Like, have you literally forgotten the last 14 years ever happened? Like winning the lottery and pretending you didn't have the money to pay your gas bill for 14 years. Just because you're loaded now doesn't erase your past. We didn't deserve poverty and we're not entitled to riches. Just enjoy the ride and have some fucking grace man you set of spoiled attention seeking bellends.

Hanshithispantz Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 We need to rapidly build a competitive squad otherwise it will only get harder to crack the top 4, whether or not we accomplish our goals is another story, but there's no real advantage to dragging it along. Next year will probably be about establishing ourselves as a proper club again, hopefully finishing above/alongside the likes of West Ham/Wolves. If that happens we'll be looking to bridge the gap between whoever is on the outside of the top 4 (Arsenal/Man Utd maybe). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why i'm not averse to loan signings. If the right long-term player isn't there we can always get a loan in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played 38 times for PSG last year. Still only 31 (?) Would add to our quest for most handsome team in PL. But is probably on about 15 million a year and I seem to recall him saying something disgruntled like ‘Newcastle fans know nothing about football.’ So he’s perceptive as well ? It’s a yes from me! Wijnaldum is reported to be on 9.2 million (Euros presumably) per year at PSG. Though as he went there on a free I presume it would be expected for this to be corrected downwards if his next move was for a transfer fee? Suspect it is the whole financial package which would lead to a straight no/maybe/yes/hell yeah! decision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
