Aye, he pads out what we've got underneath the starting XI with a bit more quality while having the potential to break into it. Sensible, low risk move.

The Prophet Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, Geogaddi said: Spent about 200 million in two windows , not expecting anything else in this one . Trippier - £12 million Wood - £25 million Bruno - £39 million Burn - £13 million Targett - £15 million Pope - £10 million Botman - £32 million Isak - £58 million £204 million on eight players. Six to seven of those will be first team regulars. Three or four of those are absolute game changers who we can build around for years to come. It's a great effort but shows what a shocking state the squad was going into last January. Edited August 30, 2022 by The Prophet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a flier on some talents that didn't quite click at their current clubs. We've got such a great manager that gets the best out of players that it could work very well for us.

I've said winger and striker and CM since ages back. Ideally in a perfect world we need more, but i understand it can't be done this quickly. I also think the peple in charge still want a wide player. ASM gets injured for a month or two then i sure as hell won't want to rely on Fraser's fitness. I'd be surprised if Wilson plays as many as 20 league games. We’ve literally just signed a guy that will play on the right in the first team when everyone is fit we suspect while another 3 competent right sided players are back up. Mate, I get it, I’d love another right sided player of quality but it doesn’t make sense to have 5 right sided players going for one position. Come on. I get the concerns about Wilson’s injury but if it’s that much of a concern we’d be better off just replacing him completely. i think the next window or next summer we’ll see the likes of Murphy or Fraser move on and another to come in. It’s a big ask in the next few days when we’ve already reportedly over spend the budget is all I’m saying Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two young players, under 21 so don't need to be registered. Highly rated, versatile too. Covers a lot of problem positions. Probably get both for the same price as one Lucas Paqueta. That would be a great deal. Read that as kane at first ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howe has said things changed because of Wilson’s injury much like Bruno I suspect this money will have been enhanced from another window. I don’t doubt there was a budget and we’ve decided to over spend on it and obv I’m delighted we have. Point is I’ll be amazed if we spend much more.

Kanji Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 It’s not guess work, it’s been said in many articles since he signed - presumably briefed by the club so they could write it.
