SUPERTOON Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 The revenue part is at least true I think, it was Kieran Maguire who posted the revenue. Agreed the wages does seem high, but then we do have a lot of players on our books so it probably is relatively high. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 While wages probably aren't that high. Getting the likes of Ritchie, Shelvey, Hendrick and Wood of the books will help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 We’re building for the future, you don’t let Wood go and don’t back fill, good god I hope not. You can hope that Wilson stays fit but, it’s unlikely, you could also put Jo up front and hope he’s magically turned into a natural centre forward and finisher. We’re surely not that club anymore. I’ll be very disappointed if a replacement, one for the future by all means, isn’t brought in. As much as I love Wilson, he’s not going to be the future.

SUPERTOON Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Was it just after the summer window that it was reported no premier league clubs were willing to do us a “favour” by loaning us players ? I can’t see this changing this window so any wood replacement will be from abroad (if we do replace him). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey47 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Haven't seen any rumours but I hope we go for Mohammed Kudus, can cover up top and maybe wide forward too? Also could play in Willocks current role really well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah just that the links suggested we were going to compete with Chelsea to sign him on a pre contract for Summer. It might have changed given that we seemingly have a way to get Wood off the books this Jan and we know our owners are flexible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdm Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 What’s the squad number situation? How many spaces are free? Could we be letting wood go to bring in a midfielder or is there already room? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 1 hour ago, Guybrush said: I feel like that shouldn't be an option... like, they saw Joelinton up front, right? I think he's a fantastic player in his current role(s), and no doubt his new found confidence and training would help him if he's asked to play up front, but I don't think anyone should be looking to play him as a lone centre forward for any amount of time. What was the system we played the couple of games when Wood was out? Joelinton scored two at Norwich in one of them? Difference between him playing there week-in, week-out with no confidence to the odd instance in an emergency when he's playing well with bags of confidence.
