Not a particularly exciting signing but if Armstrong isn’t ready to be a regular then we need 2 new central midfielders to go along with Gueye and Garner.
You do know our player of the year was Idrissa Gueye
Top scorer in the league was Mo Salah
Chris Wood scored 20 goals last season
Dan Burn won the league cup and got in the England team
We are seeing the effects of sports science now on...
Pleasantly surprised we haven’t seen Coufal walk through the door yet. Shows us Moyes and co aren’t panicking and are looking for players of at least reasonable quality in every position.
Wowzer.
Other than Pickford, I think McNeil may be the player I am least concerned with us finding a replacement for. His set pieces alone are a massive boost when he's in the team, and he scores the odd blammo out of nowhere, and all.
On...
Absolutely, recent injuries are my only red flag which is why I'd be looking at 15m max with add ons for apps/assists/goals etc.
First 2 goals left footed - 2nd was a beauty...
Feel like getting to the byline and sticking a hard low cross in is one of the best ways to score in footy and yet it often gets overlooked and overcomplicated. More than happy to have a winger who does what Doak does, but must say I’m worried...
Is it? I’d say playing in a team scrapping for relegation is very different to one trying to play more fluid footy pushing for promotion.
I’d love for him to turn in in preseason and give Moyes no chance but to play him, but it seems unlikely.
How do you know he’s ready to start for a prem team? He’s had half a good season at Derby, but may need a full season playing for a team pushing for promotion, similar to what Coleman did for Blackpool all those years ago. He might also be ready...
Genuinely looks like we’ll need 10 players if both Keane and DCL leave as expected, and we loan out both Armstrong and Chermiti like they need to be. That’s not even including Tim who probably needs a loan too, but let’s say he’s currently third...
Didn't lose money on Maupay.
We'd recoup what we spent on Beto. Beto was signed 2 days before the window closed when we hadn't scored a goal 3/4 games into the season because he was available for £0 upfront. How many strikers can you sign for...
Makes total sense to offer him about half what he’s currently on. Probably also makes sense for him to leave to play first team footy. Can’t complain whichever way this one goes. Just glad the club are proving they’re evolving.
