Tiresias Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 I fear some people who talk as if a whole new squad is going to be bought are going to be disappointed. They may spend more than they announce in advance but all talk is about taking it slow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 (edited) As the saying goes; I’ll show my arse in Fenwicks Window if we sign Pickford. It makes no sense on any level. Edited May 6, 2022 by Tsunami Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it will be somewhere in between, we won’t replace the whole team, however they sold the dream to Bruno so they will have a big plans this summer.

Tsunami Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 A friend of mine, who likes a tale but usually fesses up, was on a Newcastle to Heathrow flight today. He swears blind that Lewandowski was on it. No sly photos or anything to back it but he’s not backing down. I don’t even know why I’m posting this. So if it is windup and you’re reading this - cheers, done me up. I really don’t like posting anything I can’t at least try and validate. He may also just be bad with faces. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 What do people expect this summer then? 3 or 4 including Targett? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, will be exciting but I don’t expect Nunez or anyone of his ilk. We’ll get a centre forward, a creative midfielder of some kind, another winger and a centre back. I think the biggest thing will be outgoings. Be very interesting to see who goes as a lot of the fringe players have exceeded expectations since Christmas. As likeable as Almiron is, I wouldn’t have mind seeing the back of him until recently. Now I think he’d be pretty decent deputy to any new signing we get (along with Fraser).

STM Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 We will sign at least one "Bruno" signing, by that i mean someone better than we thought we would get. Most of our star signings will come from abroad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingcrofty Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Think the following will leave: Gayle Ritchie Fernandez Clark Lewis Manquillo M Longstaff Darlow Woodman Wouldn’t be surprised to see Miggy and/or Murphy go either. Leaves us with a squad of: Dubravka, Gillespie Trippier, Schar, Lascelles, Burn, Dummett, Krafth Joelinton, Shelvey, Willock, Bruno, Longstaff Fraser, ASM, Wood, Wilson, Miggy/Murphy, To add to that I’d imagine we’ll sign 6 players. Along the lines of a keeper, CB, LB, CM, RW and ST, plus maybe one or two up come coming players. If I was going to take a punt on signings I’d say Dean Henderson, Targett, Paqueta, Lingard, Botman and Toney. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 If Pickford was good enough I'd be happy to have him, it's kind of cute when a player goes from getting dog's abuse to playing for you - and it'd be funny to see the mackems. I don't watch him that much but he doesn't seem great - but then maybe I just see him when he's being talked about for a mistake, or v us when his head's gone.

xLiaaamx Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Personally not expecting a midfielder. They made a big point about Hayden only missing out on the squad because of injury and with Longstaff staying on as well I think they'll leave that area now.

Guest HTT II Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 We will sign 5 high quality players for the first team, and I include Targett In that and a few players for the squad, 7 max I’d say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manxst Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 2 minutes ago, The Butcher said: We don't need more squad players. We need 4-5 quality starters. By ‘squad player’, I’d say that also means young high potential players like Ekitike who won’t be playing every game, but could fill an automatic first team position in 2-3 years all going well.
