Yes, although I can't see us making the big signings we would like, might have to make do with players who will do a job for a season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t get this argument in regards to any player we buy or money we spend if the management team decide to go all in / or decide to sign a player (whatever the fee) I don’t see it as wasted money , its money spent on a player the club think will improve us , and probably a player that they think will get is where we want to be I trust our director of football / scouts / manager etc…. more than I trust random fans. All signings at all clubs (no matter what the fee) have the potential to flop or be a huge success. Transfer fees can sometimes be irrelevant, in terms of how things pan out. We could sign Gordon for 20 million and he proves to be the worst signing ever ..,.could just as easily pay 40 million and prove to be an absolute steal (and vice versa) Just leave it in the hands of the new management set up as they work with the players and know who we need.

Mansour Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Does Michael Olise have a clause or was it refuted? Would love to see him here. I think we are going to end up with a midfielder and centre forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 The creative elements of our team need to step up now like the defensive side did since the start of the year. Almiron found the net in Pre season, ASM can do it just needs to find consistency and willock was bought off the back of half a season of him farting in goals. Even wood should be able to provide and assist. His record at this level nowhere near as bad as what we've seen from him. We can't replace them all right now so some of them who want to remain need to sharpen up or fuck off. No more hangers on. You'd hope at least a couple step up like shelvey, Joelinton, Schar & kraft did last season. Finding a consistent winning formula with Willock & ASM is what I'd be looking at, with some optimism wood and almiron become something to use off the bench.

ponsaelius Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Even if our budget is only 40 million left I can't believe for one second that we couldn't get 1 quality signing and 1 quality loan with an option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 We're desperate for some real support for Wilson, if ASM is off his game we've got nothing going forward. I'd hope we'll get at least a quality right winger but hopefully a striker too for one Wilson is crocked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 1 hour ago, toon25 said: Aside from the glaring need for quality at RW, we're desperate for a little more strength in depth. We're still too reliant on key individuals being available/having a good game to help us push forward. We're seeing progress with every game, but christ we need options coming off the bench. Based on completely nothing I really feel the plan was to be left doing that at this stage. We had likely hoped to have had the winger and backup striker in. Then we would have been primed in the last part of the window to snap up and young players to pad the first team/reserves and move a couple more on if anyone else unmissable came available. As it is we are likely now waiting until window end for the Winger/Striker and with a more urgent need for another creative mid with shelvey gone.
