He's one of those weird players that can be incredible for six months then next to useless for six months.

One thing we need more than anything now is players with the right attitude.
Need South American’s if we can. They always care on the pitch.
No more bottom half 28 year olds for absurd fees please.

Unfortunately clubs use stats as form of scouting! They will see say a midfielder with 90% pass completion and think great, then end up with Morgan Schneiderlan

And since those six minutes invariably occur v Everton it would make signing him rather unproductive.

It scares me that the new season is only 7 weeks away. We can’t afford a slow start.
7 weeks ....... 7 months isnt long enough to implement the change that is needed.

The only way I’d take Zaha is if it means we can do a swap with Iwobi and Bolasie - that might resemble sensible business for all parties. Won’t happen though.

We all want a reset button type of window with 20 players out for £200m back but realistically we'll never sell the players you think we need to get rid of.
Also we actually NEED a squad of players not just 11 who will go the entire season without injury or suspension.
These are the most realistic sellable squad player we need off the books.
Outs (Wages Per Week (EST) - Realistic Fee)
Pennington - £10k - £250k
Besic - £30k - £1m
Bolasie - £75k - £2.5m
Dowell - £10k - £500k
Tosun - £60k - £2m
Sandro - £75k - £2m
Total (Week/Year Wage - Fees)
£260k per week/£12.5m per year - £8.25m Fees
Ideally we want players like Sigurdsson (£100k), Bernard (£120k), Keane (£60k), Pickford (£100k) off to but we aren't in a computer games.
If any of these big wages are off then we won't be getting our money back but getting a healthier wage bill is key to building a better squad of players.
I can see interest in players like Kenny, Kean and Gibson who have youth and potential so clubs may take a punt on them so we could sell to balance the books better and the most obvious and worse case scenario, sell Digne or Richarlison.
Brands and Carlo have only really worked together for a few months, you can see the vision that Carlo will demand and I am sure Brands wants that same vision.
Past signings, manageral systems and changes have hampered us so let's remember it's not an overnight fix and it will take time but it's also not entirely impossible to get 3 or 4 quality signings into this squad to completely change our fortunes.
So let's have some faith and belief because we have CARLO F***ING ANCELOTTI as our manager now so let's set our standards appropriately.
