Weezertron Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I'd want 4 bodies in, for whatever our budget is. Not really keen on getting a purple for 65m like Cunha or whatever, if it means another season of having a poor bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume we'll have priority positions and different options at different price points. If we get CL I would be hopeful for 1 purple + 3 more.

Club World Cup is filling their coffers to the tune of 60m isn’t it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I was canny happy with how much we spent in our last summer before a CL campaign. We signed Tonali and Barnes who were meant to be first teamers, as well as Tino and Hall for the future. Something like that but CB, RW, GK, CM would be cool.

Probably how I’m feeling and could see it happening. RW / CB the starters, GK / CM ones that won’t be expected to be starters but with aim they can be as season progresses.

Shearergol Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 We need a starting keeper as much as a right winger. Absolutely vital Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll need a full back on the basis that neither Targett or Kelly will be here I hope we sign a CM to really compete with the 3 we have as starters currently - competition (genuine) does no one any harm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely vital If we signed a £10m-£15m keeper, they would be good enough to start but I could see it be a ‘ease in’ I.e. cups and when an injury arrives, they come in and rest is history. Our first big signing will determine what approach we take for others IMO. Like the Murphy form and output might be making them think a £50m RW signing isn’t required, and a raw £15m+ one will suffice and they spend big on a CM instead.

Money for a GK IMO doesn’t equate to quality. Like Ramsdale for any club will be £25m+ ffs, can pick up goalkeepers from all over Europe of same ability at worse for 1/5 of that. Like Hermanson joined Leicester for around £7m I believe. The value in goalkeepers is so thin unless you are signing the truly elite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just fired up Fifa 23 after not playing it in an age. The commentator has really gone hard in a Steve McClaren way to pronounce none UK names "correctly". His De Bruyne was painful.

midds Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I think whoever manages to sign Huijsen this summer already has one eye on flogging him to Madrid in 2027 tbh. I'd include us in that too I think Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn’t he got something like a 40% save percentage this season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
