Oregon_Geordie Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Think it makes sense to get a loan for the CF position. Ideally Wilson will stay fit, and Wood will be used in certain games - Howe just spent 25 mil on him. I'd take Broja.. But I'd pass on Lingard. I'd rather play Elliot more or buy Sarr tbh.

Wilson is brilliant but has a very poor track record of injury, Wood has been under performing in front of goal but did contribute a lot in terms of pressing, however he's back up at best. Miggy, Fraser and ASM have all very poor end product. And out of the three I can only envision ASM improving on his stats however he needs to have an outstanding season next season otherwise he might be replaced. Murphy isn't good enough and the rest will be shipped out. We really need to get in at least 2 attacking players and I'd be concerned if the club don't see that too. We have enough defensively to be competitive but we were really impotent last season going forward and we still haven't addressed that yet. But I think they will but looks like we will have to be patient. Expand If you look at our possession stats, chances created and goals scored it's obvious that we need two (3 in my opinion) players with the necessary improvements in quality. Fortunately I think the owners and Howe will be fully aware of this also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I know is Mandoon, who I’ve met is a top lad, a fantastic poster, very knowledgeable and is a scout so his posts are always interesting regarding players I’ve not heard or seen play of as he obviously does his research, that and he himself is a good player and a handsome bastard to boot.

Expand Aye, signing Lingard right now makes no sense when we have an apparent highly rated youngster who can do a similar job based on our Bristol Rover friends’ accounts of his time there. I’d rather we promote him to the first-team than sign Lingard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 £30m for Tielemans and then a loan to buy for Broja would be great business. Add a RW to that and we'd be golden. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s not to say the budget won’t change but at the moment that’s what’s being briefed Expand That's kind of my point though, I doubt there is a set budget and probably quite pragmatic about it all.

Expand They are different types of players. Tielemans can play a defensive/holding midfielder or a central midfielder. He can play deep and receive the ball in front of the defenders, or he can play a bit more advanced to support our strikers. Paqueta can play more in the final third as an attacking midfielder or close to a second striker. choosing one over the other depends on the tactics Howe plans to play.
