我们现在把霍尔也卖了吗

Our LB only have Hall and Livramento (always RB). If athletic performance of Trippier declines,  Livramento must be RB. So we will lack a competitive player at LB. Who can take on the role? Is it Targett? We need new blood at LB, urgently.

I’m now legitimately wondering if it would be worth it to sell Trippier or loan out Miley. Crazy the difference a week and a couple of signings makes.

Love wor Lewis but he’s quickly going down the ladder. We need him and I want to see him starting matches but dang.

If Hall were out then Livramento to LB (where mamy would say hes played best) and Krafth to RB (who's never let us down) and thats only if Trippier leaves. Also we may well see the emergence of Shahar over the next season or so. Be interesting to see if he gets loaned out for experience before the window shuts.

Dibbling left out again last night, seems like a howe signing in the making, not sure if Southampton have overpriced him.

Sorry but why the hell are we spending £40m on a complete crock when El Khannous has a cheaper release clause?

 

 

 

 

Not far off your username in terms of game time. Sell Joelinton, sign the Leicester kid.

[SUPERTOON]

May not be the most exciting names, but Elanga, Ramsdale, Thiaw and Ramsey certainly improve our squad in a big way imo. The success of the window will probably come down to strikers mind.

Just dont see us being in for another RW. Dibling has played CF and AM I think but RW is his best position isn't it? Almost a non starter.

All focus now has to be on strikers (assuming Ramsey is signed)

This, otherwise this has been a decent window. Gk, cb, cm and rw. All important areas fixed, except strikers.

Two and a half weeks to get Wissa, and either produce the greatest piece of man management in the club's history by making Isak serviceable here again, or sign a replacement. 

[Toon No9]

I think Kalimuendo would be a good signing for a resonable price.

If Ramsey and Wissa sign and we can successfully reintegrate Isak it will have been a very decent window

use Šeško money on Wharton, get Wissa for Wilson replacement and keep Isak til next summer

 

or get Paqueta and Rudoni for the same price as Wharton, Wissa and Jackson/Samu after selling Isak

 

what would you prefer

Everyday of the week, and twice Sunday.

If that happened and you took all the Ormstein/Jacobs/Hope/Romano noise out of it:

 

Elanga

Ramsdale 

Thiaw

Ramsey

Wissa

 

is about as good as I think anyone would have expected. We got our new RW, the GK to push/replace Pope, pacier RCB, midfield upgrade on the current backup options and Wilson's replacement. Still feel we're going to need a number 9 to replace Isak, though.

Still lacks that Tonali-esque star signing the marquee which makes us serious challengers. This set of signings currently keeps us at break even given how far advanced other clubs have become this summer

Do we think we go for another midfielder?

Think we only do this if Willock left. Hall will probably be the 6th/7th if he stays.

My money's on finding a loan for punctual Joe and getting another CM in. Miley pining for Palace by October.

I was told last week that we wanted two midfielders, but whether we get them both is another question.

[Keegans Export]

Pope, Ramsdale, Ruddy (3)

Trippier, Livramento, Hall, Krafth, Targett (5)

Botman, Burn, Schar, Thiaw, Lascelles (5)

Bruno, Tonali, Joelinton, Ramsey, Willock (5) 

Gordon, Elanga, Barnes, Murphy (4)

Isak, Wissa, Osula (3)

 

That's 25 as it stands, names in bold could change obviously. 

 

If we're going to add another midfielder on top of Ramsey I can only assume we're going to look to shift one of Targett or Willock before we do so.

So it looks like it could be

 

Dubravka ➡️ Ramsdale 

Kelly ➡️ Thiaw

Longstaff ➡️ Ramsey

Almiron ➡️ Elanga 

Wilson ➡️ Wissa

 

I think it's fair to say that's a canny upgrade, squad is better for it

 

Just the Isak situation to resolve too

 

Thinking another way though. 

 

Dubravka - £1-2m maybe? 

Kelly - £17-20m? 

Longstaff - £12m

Almiron - £8m?

Wilson - £0

Total income: £38-42m

 

Ramsdale - £4m loan (£20m buy?)

Thiaw - £30m (+£4m add ons)

Ramsey - £35m? (Total £40m?)

Elanga - £52m (3m add ons)

Wissa- £35-40m?

Total cost £156-173m (not counting Ramsdale future buy price)

 

So roughly if all max prices are received and spent were looking at at outlay of £131m so far if we are adding Wissa into the figures. Plus whatever wages we have added more than we dropped.

 

That's alot of money to us and where we are currently and with PSR to have only really improved on our backups, added zero extra depth and maybe 1 likely first 11 starter in Elanga. 

 

It would certainly mean we need the Isak money if we want to try and sign a "purple" again in this or future windows I suspect.

Gallagher on loan with obligation imo.
