A few slating him for not turning up for training, I get that view but on the other hand he’s been told he’s not wanted and they want him gone so 🤷♂️
Like being binned by a bird and then having to go round to hers to watch her with someone...
I think we're a great move for him tbh. Look at the role he played at Villa in their transition from relegation battle to Europe. He comes here, backs himself to be the hero again, and gets another crack at the big time before he's 30.
It is definitely a risk but gone are the days where you get anything from the championship cheap nowadays. On the flip, if he turns out to be the next Wharton (which we have to be aiming for) then he’d be worth the gamble all day long. We’re in...
I wonder if Moyes sees Ndiaye as someone who can play any of the three positions behind the striker. He might be looking at 5 players for the three positions. Ndiaye Alcaraz McNeil Mcatee Kubo. Then picking any 3 from the 5 with Ndiaye Mcatee...
Doable list that would dry those sheets like a fine summers breeze (all for sub £100m)
McAtee - £30m
Kubo - £30m
Ndiaye and McNeil for left hand side Alcaraz/McAtee/McNeil for middle
Kubo/McAtee right hand side.
Douglas Luiz - loan 10m...
Agreed with that but I think we actually need two Right Wingers and possibly a third backup striker because Beto has mixed spells and we just don't know how Barry will adapt so a more seasoned low risk striker would be a huge bonus.
I think if we were to bring 4/5 players in from now (3 perm, 2 loan) this would be my personal priority: -
1. RW on a perm (Kubo would be ideal - but either way it absolutely needs to be a player who's operated predominantly on the right...
Exactly. Whilst loans do come with an expense, it allows us to concentrate our major funds on the priority positions for the squad, with loans adding depth.
In an ideal world, we'd be in a position where we either didn't need loans at all, or...
Obviously our recruitment so far has been disappointing, but the spending by city, utd, liverpool,arsenal and chelsea has been absolutely ridiculous ...I don't think I've seen a pre season where those clubs seem SO far ahead of everyone in...
