We could always play a different formation to accommodate a number 10

I don’t think Howe does that. Hence why we won’t get a DM either.

I don't think Anderson and Longstaff are purples, neither is Miley. They've done a good job though. 

 

PS Can we please stop saying purples

 

Agree, even though I'm a big fan, Willock isn't a purple* either.

 

*soz.

Osimhen?

 

He'd be ideal for me.

 

From what I've read it seems he's an absolutely wonderful fit in terms of his personality, too.

His previous injury was his hamstring, his current injury is his Achilles. Howe has also already said it’s not expected to be long term

Didn’t he do hamstring and then Achilles Which delayed his return to fitness and had a reoccurrence of the Achilles injury once fit and playing again?

Saw one of those listsicles ranking Chelsea transfers since Boehly took over and was amazed the money they’ve wasted. Thought I’d try doing one for Howe.

 

Highly subjective. Keep changing the criteria between contribution and potential payoff. Ultimately just my feeling about them at a minute. Not a bad transfer in the bunch (And yeah, I do think that Wood was a good transfer— both the acquisition and the sale)

 

1. Trippier
2. Guimaraeres
3. Isak
4. Gordon
5. Livramento
6. Botman
7. Pope
8. Barnes
9. Tonali 
10. Burn 
11. Hall
12. Minteh 
13. Wood
14. Kuol
15. Ashby
16. Targett
17. Karius 
18. Diallo

[CPL]

Burn above Barnes and Tonali. Tonali probably should be lower down based on current status.

Currently lower than Diallo based off fee and wages.

Oshimen is also one who I'd be willing to let Wilson leave to bring him in. Having Isak, Oshimen and a young back up would be perfect. Plus Gordon as 4th choice.

 

Pretty much guaranteed to be a success unlike some other strikers we've been linked with so I wouldn't be as concerned if I meant Wilson would need/want to leave.

Depends on his weighting between "contribution and potential payoff". Presumably he's going more for the latter which is why Wood (who scored some crucial goals) is behind Hall (who is still very much a project and at best 3rd choice LB) and Minteh (who hasn't played for us at all)

I was going back a forth. It's a silly list. Really excited about Tino at the moment. (Burn, Botman, Tonali --line I 've already forgotten) Silly.

It's a subjective list, so can't really say you're wrong, but I don't understand how you can have Targett, whom despite of injury problems was an integral part of turning our season around when Howe first arrived, behind Ashby and Kuol who has done nothing to date here nor really anything of note at the clubs they've been on loan at that would indicate that they can be future players here.

 

From my personal preference I'd have Burn ahead of Tonali and Barnes and Botman ahead of Livramento. Other than that difficult to disagree with anything else.

Matías Soulé any good?

Looks good on Youtube IMO. Might be a good upgrade on Miggy. 

[Novocastrian]

Osimhen is another who will cost £100m+ and have multiple suitors. We aren’t in that race, surely.

It's fantasy island stuff so I wouldn't take it too seriously.

[STM]

Anyone who thinks we won't look to sign players, including a keeper is mistaken.

[Krabbe2]

Maybe the season can be written off when we get to January as it looks now. No point in doing anything drastic then.

[Miggys First Goal]

Still six more games to get through before the window even opens. 

[nemtizz]

Right back needed marra

[Myleftboot]

Didn’t think we could spend in January cos off daft FFP?

[Krabbe2]

In any case, can sell the reserves because they will never be used anyway.

[SUPERTOON]

Personally think he’s full of shit but:
