Mazzy Posted April 16, 2024 Share Posted April 16, 2024 13 minutes ago, Sweee said: Gibbs-White and Kelly. Although i want a elite CB. But that can wait until next summer imo. Barnes - Isak - Gordon Gibbs-White - Guimaraes - Joelinton Burn - Botman - Schär - Trippier Pope Kelly, Livramento, Miley, Longstaff, Tonali and Almiron as important subs Botman won't be ready surely. Burn and Schar to continue if we haven't got anyone else in and Hall or Kelly (if he signs) at LB would be better. No sense rushing Botman back AGAIN. Also, Id be swapping Miley on the bench for Anderson, Miley can go out on loan to the championship (assuming Willock is fit and we sign another CM as you've suggested) Almiron needs to sold as it's pretty much our last chance to get big(ish) money for him. Also, no Wilson on that bench so Im guessing you'd get rid and that means we'd need to bring another striker in to cover. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted April 16, 2024 Share Posted April 16, 2024 My thoughts are that so far we haven't really done "stop gap" type signings, by that I mean signing players specifically because they are deemed a good deal or a bargain. Therefore my instinct is that we won't go near Kelly or Tosin, unless we had already seen them as potential signings, which is possible. Ultimately, players will need to fit whatever model/system we have and can't be signed just because they are good value. It's much more likely that we will have a quality CB (probably from the continent) on our radar, who will fit the pattern of players we've signed more recently: Aged between 19-25 Experienced for their age Potential for improvement Versatile 30-50m From a club that are vulnerable financially to us Of course that's dependent on the sort of finances we have...

STM Posted April 16, 2024 Share Posted April 16, 2024 I know its not really for this thread but I can't wait to see the game where we have our current front 3, with Livramento at RB behind Gordon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly comes in as a lb or we go elsewhere, IMHO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted April 16, 2024 Share Posted April 16, 2024 I don’t think I want Kelly at all. I guess it depends on what kind of room we have when it comes to spending. Would prefer to not sign too much “dead wood” . Prefer to get top quality or very young players with massive potential. But yeah, ffp… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s infinitely better than an option like Dummett or Ritchie coming off the bench Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFEE Posted April 16, 2024 Share Posted April 16, 2024 The journalists have clearly been briefed this week. What do we all think the reasons are for that? What story are the club suppressing that the press have hold of? Or is it just to distract slightly from ticket price hikes? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crikey Why are players from smaller clubs always looked down upon this way man? Anyway, let's see if he comes in, then we'll see what he does. I think there will be some backtracking yet again. It's the same way both Gordon and Barnes were vastly underestimated on here when we signed both, but we've seen a very different reality. When Liverpool were signing the likes of Robertson and Henderson that ended up being such significant pieces for them in their first team, same thing.
