Sibierski Posted July 6, 2024 Share Posted July 6, 2024 Also, I’d suspect all three are in the highest wage category outside of Bruno/Tonali/Joelinton, so if they’re back up options next season, you don’t want those wages swallowed up with little input. Better to have it go towards 2 top players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I could have a input I would say that having a starting eleven that are elite and then fill the squad with more up and coming players, is the way. As soon as the starting players are starting to drop in quality sell. As said, Almiron, Wilson and Trippier is not going to be starting players and cost a lot. Sell them.

As soon as the starting players are starting to drop in quality sell. As said, Almiron, Wilson and Trippier is not going to be starting players and cost a lot. Sell them. Expand For me, it's about having 14/15 main guys. Then 4 reliable options and some youth after that (ignoring GKs). You can't assemble a squad of 20 senior pros, on off chance you get a freak injury season, because it's not sustainable for team morale and spreads the quality. 14/15 - Botman / Burn / Schar / Trippier / Targett / Kelly / Tonali / Joe / Bruno / Willock / Longstaff / Barnes / Gordon / Isak / Wilson / Almiron Reliable - Tino / Murphy / Lascelles / Krafth Youth - Miley / Harrison / Hall / A.Murphy / Ashby That's what it's probably like at the moment, so can see straight away in that 14 group, names need moving on as you don't want Trips / Wilson / Almiron wages in that category below. Hall and Tino move up a level, it's 16 in top category. Move on the 3 mentioned (+ Targett ideally), it's room for winger / striker / defender and a youth prospect this summer.

STM Posted July 6, 2024 Share Posted July 6, 2024 If those 3 leave, we could be looking at 5/6 coming in. I wouldn't expect them all to be ready made though. 2/3 more established and 2/3 Hall/Livramento types. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamPS Posted July 6, 2024 Share Posted July 6, 2024 Howe has said before more than 4 or 5 is disruptive and every summer has had that cap. I’d expect 3 more max, given Kelly and the Keeper are already in. Ruddy seems more like a coach/emergency role so maybe doesn’t count.

Tiresias Posted July 6, 2024 Share Posted July 6, 2024 I want Right sided centre back to backup and long term replace Schar Right Winger who contributes goals and creativity to the attack (obvs i guess) Defensively minded but technically able midfielder to compete for starting (but probably just in the rotation) but mainly so we never have to rely on Longstaff as a defensive mid again which he isn't. After that I'd be looking to snap up some promising young players. Optimistically to replace squad ahead who will get sold in future, but cynically the type who we grab for £10m and can sell for at least double that in a season or two to help with the psr :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
