Would people be happy with just Ekitike as the only striker signing if it meant we went big on a RW and say we get a Paqueta type ?

Yeah. No point getting him if he isn't going to play. He's pretty much guaranteed gametime as back up to Wilson.

I do not think it is wise to keep Wilson and Wood, and bring two additional CFs when the club need plenty of players. I hope the club is not planning to do. I personally would give both Wilson and Wood another season before we go big next summer, particularly because the players that are worth getting are not available (Abraham, Osimhen, and Nunez in that order).

Think I’m here as well. Providing we can get enough game time out of Wilson; him, Ekitike, Wood and even Joelinton isn’t disastrous. Bonus if it frees up the budget for a goal-scoring RW and Paqueta.

Appreciate that, but Targett has had a huge impact in our turn in form from preventing goals going in. Of course a great attacking presence from LB is nice, but I am worried about us being less solid without Targett, unless Lodi is just as impressive defensively.


He isn’t, unfortunately.

Ideally I think we'd all like to get Lodi AND Targett who could rotate, whilst moving on Lewis and having Dummettinho as backup :D Doubt that'll ever happen though, we're way off having double purples in every position but one can dream that it won't be too far in our future..

Hopefully with the make up of the team come this season, we will have a lot more of the ball in the opposition half. Our possession stats did improve a little under Howe, but ths is an area we need to improve on, as we often struggled to get over 40%. I'm certain it will be foremost in Howe's mind also.

I get that, and my comment was tongue-in-cheek to an extent, but I trust Eddie to build the squad in line with how he wants us to play and I trust our scouts to find the right players to fit the brief.

The one thing you can say about Richarlison is that he’s committed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

to being a nobhead. In fairness, I do respect how much he always gives for his team but I would get so pissed off with his antics

Listening to what people say about Richarlison off the field (as in he's actually nice and humble in real life), I'd think he'd be a good, happy player - especially when surrounded by his compatriots and in a team playing clean, exciting football. He's snide and cunty in Everton's team because Everton plays snide and cunty.

 

I'd love him here, much more so than DCL.

Now this is one that I'd like us to look at.

Yes please, he’d be our Bellamy!

If it's between DCL and Richarlison I'd agree, Richarlison is the better bet!

 

He's still a horrible little shite, in an even more annoying way than Bellamy ever was.
