Chermiti loan

We need 5 more. If Armstrong is loaned out then 6.
 

Not sure what's happened over the last couple of days that has seemingly made a load of people do a massive about turn and decide that actually we've done loads and the squad is actually great anyway so doesn't really need much doing to it. Maybe it's just a coping mechanism.

I get that.

Weeks ago you had people like Paddy Boyland and Mark Douglas bigging up the amount of work to be done as "unprecedented' (not at all, really). Talk like that creates it's own expectations.

It seems the US tour might be the next fork in the road. I hope we can get two more in then, thats £40m - £60m probably depending on where we get them from. My concern would be waiting on someone like Luiz and being strung along for the rest of the summer. It's a struggle to see how we pay his wages anyway.

I don't see any scenario where we don't need to do a lot of loan business at the end and that creates it's own risk. But we do need to add another couple in by the end of this month.
 
I agree

And i think the first 2 would
a) take some persuasion
b) possibly have other suitors

I'm hoping that's the reason we haven't gone hell for leather and the easier options are lined up to move on once we know our first choice isnt possible (a bit like we did with Delap)

Its also interesting we haven't really heard much about a right back since Tete went back on his agreement, wonder if that was just an opportunistic punt.
The Tete deal shows you exactly why the budget is a bit of a jigsaw. We wanted him and even giving him a payrise, we'd have had a decent right back in on a relatively decent outlay. Now it looks like we don't fancy any of the other free agent options, so we will go and spend some decent money on a right back. That being the case, that money has to come from somewhere and it's presumably at the expense of some of what we spend on a winger or centre mid.

3rd signing in a row Moyes has said more to come: "We are continuing to work on bringing in more players ahead of the start of the season.”

So far he hasn't been wrong.
I haven’t heard what he said, but after Barry he said he wants a few more in over the next few weeks, I read that as in for America, we go in a week and have only got a reserve keeper in. So a lot to do in 7 days

If you're taking him at face value, Barry only signed 6 days ago and "a few" is typically 3 or more, so you'd be talking over the next 15 days
 
We currently have 3 of those left sided players that like to play centrally.

We dont need more.
But apparently Moyes wants another number 10, and add that to 2 centre midfielders. I can’t see us signing 3.

Ndaiye will definitely playing wide and I know McNeil has had about 10 games central, he’s a wide player.
