It was in these periods when Young had a few games of bad spell that we didn't try out something else, I'm not talking about last autumn, where he was probably a top 3 player (in a bad squad). More like 23/24.

I was frustrated at times why Ashley Young (who was average mostly) started over him mostly, but the more I see him on the pitch, the more I understand.

A little bit less reliable than Ornstein, but he's pretty credible. Especially in terms of Bundesliga as he's German.

I mean Ndiaye did the same for us, and did it well, despite playing 90% of his games before either on 10 or ST.

I know that means we still don't have a player that plays rid mid/wing as a main position. However, Ndiaye has barely played left side in his career before joining us and he did very good in majority. As Alcaraz and McNeil they can fill any of the 3 positions.

We would, it's good to see that, but very dangerous for himself, cause he gets measured on that.

Liverpool (is the rival), but they are doing the right thing, as they were quite modest with spending the years before. It's easy to say we won title, we go on like that, but they extended their 2 most important players + a couple of promising signings that show ambition. For me it felt like it...

I am not scared of the transferal situation by now, but I'd thought that we'd be further in the process by the end of July. First of all, we could start the planning quite early, we secured PL much earlier (we didn't need to plan for 2 divisions), the PSR situation looks better, we have...

Lino is joining Flamengo according to Spanish reports.

It's obligatory to set release clause for a player (often much higher than an actual transfer value) in La Liga mainly due to the Spanish law as footballers are by law the same as workers with a contract that can buy themselves out of a contract. :)

Jep, they are not easy to negotiate with. However, release clauses are always mandatory in any case. Asking price is around 30-35m. I know from local sources here in Basque that there are talks between Everton and Sociedad, but also other clubs being interested in Kubo, but I can't tell how far...

As big as a name Everton is historically, potential player surely don't neglect what happened in recent years. It's sometimes the hard current reality that you should be in the race with players that Newcastle or Villa get, but currently it's Forest, Fulham or Bournemouth.

Probably yes, but if you see other teams they are not further in the process.

Nah, as we sacked Mr slow start and the fixtures are Wolves, Leeds and Brighton - 3 teams we can realistically get points from - it might look on paper as we get points again.

I mean it's not a perfect eleven, but basically one that got 31 points in 19 games with a good manager. It's a decent point to start from, but surely need depth and some quality, to not have a bench that's as frightening as around February/March.

1 good RB and a GK back up surely.

I do agree, we can get the 7 probably with loan spots, but I am fully aware we can't get 7 players for 20m each. And the rebuild is not a one window project. They have clearly to consider carefully where is the focus: Ideally we get a RB, but we have personnel there (not top quality), but to...

Yeah, it's the truth that we still need about 7 players. RW surely number 1 now. Bakayoko and Kubo seem 2 good options for a reasonable price. Bakayoko seems to have a few good clubs in Germany as a choice. Unfortunately, Forest this season has the advantage to convince players with European...

it‘s a bit unrealistic, but what a dream if we could get Douglas, Kubo and Bakoyoko in. 75m for them combined would be worth it.

Going over 50 points at least at first. I'd be satisfied if Moyes' continues his first 19 games and gets us over 60.
