Thats a good shout with a loan. Then Locko at LB and we are sorted.sosa seemimgly sorted finally with extra add ons. might mean roque on loan for the striker tho?
You keep forgetting we need a top quality keeperThats a good shout with a loan. Then Locko at LB and we are sorted.
Likely funded when a first teamer is sold, and it should be a loan with option/obligation for Ramsdale. Still need to move Turner and a few more. Can see any move for a goalie being a deadline day deal after the priorities are sorted first.You keep forgetting we need a top quality keeper
One day you might agree with me that having the best keeper you can is a bigger priority than 3 centre forwards, 4 wingers or 6 centre mids etcLikely funded when a first teamer is sold, and it should be a loan with option/obligation for Ramsdale.

Winger, CF, LB and then a keeper. Sels is fine for August games
Your immediate point here is we are already losing points before a ball is kicked.One day you might agree with me that having the best keeper you can is a bigger priority than 3 centre forwards, 4 wingers or 6 centre mids etc
But I think that's some time off
Lol
But I guess the odd couple of points or more we lose in August is "fine" (your words not mine) if we leave that position til later
Nothing against sels. But if there are better options available then they should be a priority just as much as the more flowery positions
And every point can count for something
Including Europe if we want to show that kind of ambition and intent
So don't discount the value of points in August Finbar
They all count at the end the same at the end of the season
Sels is fine. If he was our keeper for the season I wouldn’t complain. If we want to push up the table properly though, you are right and we would need someone better. Someone like Ramsdale who might be worth another half dozen points.One day you might agree with me that having the best keeper you can is a bigger priority than 3 centre forwards, 4 wingers or 6 centre mids etc

tricky, hows it go, points per match, then divided by points per million quid per year, multiplied by the xgc90? do bonus points come into it? less bps for keepers this year :*Sels is fine.

I still feel if we want a 30m+ striker we will sell someone, poss danillo or elanga. But I feel/hope they will want to stay and therefore we will go that loan route for the strikerYour immediate point here is we are already losing points before a ball is kicked.
We also can't spend recklessly due to this bullshit PSR crap which seems is solely designed to inhibit 'smaller' teams while the 'elite' get away with football murder.
In terms of goalies, if cash want an issue, then that Georgian fella at Valencia is absolute top drawer and I can't believe no-one has gone in for him yet.
A Ramsdale loan wont be cheap. 125k a week wages, plus a loan fee which is likely to be somewhere between 2-5m at a total guess.
If Chelsea and their mad penchant for acquiring every player under the sun, do actually fancy Murillo for 70m, or 45m plus Chalobah, then you have your budget for a keeper, CF, LB and another CB
Any weakness that sels might have is only a problem when the opposition get within shooting range. But all is good, when Nuno follows the accepted 3+2 defensive formation. Shilton wasn’t in goal when we won the league cup against Liverpool.One day you might agree with me that having the best keeper you can is a bigger priority than 3 centre forwards, 4 wingers or 6 centre mids etc

3 centre halves and 2 keepers?Any weakness that sels might have is only a problem when the opposition get within shooting range. But all is good, when Nuno follows the accepted 3+2 defensive formation. Shilton wasn’t in goal when we won the league cup against Liverpool.
Not what we need and a ridiculous price for a 'good' not great season. The only one of his careerMarmoush agreed terms apparently, presumably if we can't pull gimenez out of the ashes
