Player Valuation: £2.5m
From a fans persoectove it looks like we are may be short of funds in this window. Either that or we are in a game of chess plotting the moment to pounce and thus beat our rivals to signatures. I obviously haven't got a scoobies. I can imagine, cos that's all I have, that it's much more difficult than people realise to encourage top talent to come to us. I also recognise the hugely concerning wastage of many players on our books with huge salaries simply not wanted by anybody else. I believe that this may have a bearing on why there is so little movement.
The Zouma thing, if the rumours are true, is disappointing and concerning as we will be relying on Holgate as backup if we don't get anyone else of quality in.
No backup for Seamus as of yet. He's getting on a bit now. I guess Holgate is, again, the backup.
Are we going with DCL. Great news for him if true. However you could argue with the lack of a true goal threat in the centre forward position we can kiss goodbye to any hopes of top six.
We may be relying heavily on Richarlison for goals if we don't capture another quality winger. Will Richarlison be in top shape after playing in the summer! Silva has previously said he wants another winger.
It looks like Gana may be going as why else would they buy Delph. If true it seems like a sideways step. Like putting a bandage over the problem. Davies, Mccarthy and Besic are ordinary. If Gana goes we will miss his defensive protection for sure.
I'm a realist. Due to the incredible wages the club give to our players, even the kids, I wouldn't be surprised if we don't have enough to use for the transfers required to get this team up into the top six. Mr Moshiri, as I've mentioned previously, may not be the type to dip into his own pockets anymore after his initial flurry. Also the FFP rules are certainly constricting.
At this present moment I'm hoping what I've wrote above turns out to be far wide of the mark. Maybe a prudent loan or two may help our progression. I'm being negative I know. I suppose I'm a bit concerned due to the rise of our neighbours. I desperately want us to do something this year.
