2024/25 Kevin Thelwell

[maccavennie]

Given the job he’s done of trimming the wage bill, Man Utd could be doing with him soon

True mate

 

[Llyrap]

Pretty much our starting team

Pickford
O'Brien (16m) - Tarkowski (free) - Branthwaite - Mykolenko.

Lindstrom (20m) - Gueye (2m) - Garner (8m) - Ndiaye (16m) - Alcaraz (15m) -Beto (24m)

8/11 of the starting 11 bought by Thelwell if you say the loans are options we take. For just 101m including the entire midfield and starting striker. An average of just less than 13m a player.

Given we need 6-8 minimum in this summer and say we have 120-150m to spend then I think he's shown he can get great value for money. 5 pickups in that price range of 13m average (65m) and say 2-3 in the 25-40 range and we will have a very very solid squad for Moyes to work with.

Taking into account a couple of near misses in Gyokeres and Kudus he has done very well. If you look at much vaunted Brighton they have been exceptional but still plenty
of misses.

I think that was Brands. Could be wrong though

 

[WelshBlue92]

we were also interested in MGW and Elanga but didn't have the funds, both have now done well at Forest.

 

[Number_25]

Nice to see people come around to the reality of the job he has done for us.

 

[Neiler]

The academy is within his remit, right? I think that's one area we've been badly lacking in for some time - not bringing through talent.

To be very fair the academy has made what 70 mill on his watch.

How much of that is Gordon?

Cannon, Simms, who else did we get a fee for?

 

[Bedfordblue]

£10m Dobbin, £2.5m Nkounkou (sp?) Beni Baninginme (undisclosed) plus various loans fees.
Granted House of Gord was a fair chunk of that figure.

The full back to Chelsea

 

[Exeter_Gently]

If he's staying he needs to get the Youth set up to par again.

Getting beat by the Wigan's of the world isn't good enough.

Results in an U18 friendly mean absolutely nothing and Wigan have a decent academy.

Nathan Broadhead, Samual Smith and Mills as well mate.

The academy is and going forward should be more of an industry.
