Matt1892 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 The thing with a loan with an obligation to buy is that you are likely to be paying over the odds for the player as there is little incentive for the selling club to go for that deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 So with Barnes more or less done and dusted who are the strongest links remaining? RB Livramento RCB Disasi Anderson Is that about it at the moment? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumbheed Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Howe changed and rotated his wingers the most last season so I'd imagine it's an area he definitely wants depth in. Joelinton, Willock and Murphy are all good options for that role but assuming Gordon is an immediate change for Barnes (or vica versa) then I'd assume he'd want another top quality wing option off the bench to replace Almiron assuming he's a starter.

Toon88 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Seems the focus is now about squad depth in defensive areas now. Livramento is obviously the next target Disasi was ruled out by Keith D. If Palace want £70m for a midfielder who’s done nothing, I’d imagine Andersen will be too expensive. Tierney is there and waiting. Just for us to decide if we want to give them £30m. Heard rumours on Jean-Clair Todibo for £40m. Not much else. The Maxi stuff has kind of taken over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems we've been almost exclusively linked to left wingers since the takeover. I think we may have someone in mind that we can possibly get at better value or on loan initially, as we get closer to the end of the window. At a guess I'd say Chiesa or Raphinha, hopefully!

AJ9 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Howe sees Anderson as an option in midfield, so unless he goes on loan I think that’s our lot for midfield Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Boyo Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I do feel Anderson has shown enough as cover. If Longstaff’s in there then Anderson should be in terms of consistency, ability and determination. I feel Anderson’s starting to show that more and has a wealth of talent around him to bring him on. I think with Miley he will continue to benefit well training with the first team and be involved at points off the bench late on to see how he gets on, but the focus is on Anderson for me.

Yorkie Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I know modern squads aren't littered with strikers these days but does feel a bit light there, particularly seeing as ASM was the emergency stand-in. Wilson will get injured at some point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
