PREMIER LEAGUE 2023/24 SUMMER TRANSFER WINDOW
- Thread starter Ingy
- Start date
Peter Baxendale Thomas
Vital 1st Team Regular
Just while I wait for MOTD to start... in an ideal world, my OUTGOINGS would be:
Perm:
Cook
Shelvey (again, in an ideal world)
Lingard
Hennessey
Cafú
Freuler
Lyle Taylor
Ayew
Harry Arter (unbelievably still at the club)
Hwang
Ojeda
Fornah
Panzo
Mbe Soh
Laryea
Dräger
Smith
Horvath
Loan:
Mighten
Surridge
I'd keep Bowler and O'Brien and have a look at them pre-season. I still have hope particularly for LO'B.
Horvath and Panzo have done OK at their clubs but I don't think they're really EPL quality? We should get a fee for both though.
My GOD it feels good to NOT be a Championship team.
YOU REDS.

I think Lareya could be of use this season. He had a great world cup. In assuming he went on loan as we couldn't guarantee him a start and the world cup was coming up. I'd bet he will take a squad spot now in the hope he can press for a first team place. I think he plays both full back positions doesn't he?

I'd mbe keep mbe as well. The rest in your list can get fucked
Generally agree. Would give Frueler another season. He may just click. I liked Mbe Soh. Can he step up? Still quite young. I have not been impressed by Bowler when seen this season. Gone backwards. Havn’t seen Ojeda so can’t comment. Agree about Mighten and Surridge going on loan. Both need to kick on this season. Otherwise agree. Need to make some space.

frueler has already had most of this season and contributed fuck all, it's no coincidence our results picked up when he was dropped to the bench. he is no where near at the pace of the premier league
He does mate yes, and TFC are a disaster this season. But is he good enough? Walker-Peters for me
I think we sell Dennis and Surridge now. Don't be surprised to see McKenna sold, and maybe Boly too
Bring in another starting 9, so the rotation with Taiwo is no longer a drop off. Wood can be number 3 for a year, then he finally fuck off.
L'OB to come back in. We need a couple of great CM's, another winger, and a CB. Henderson and Lodi on perms
The lad loves a marquee signing, see Marcelo and Rodriguez who failed abysmally for Oly, I really wanted Jesse to prove his doubters wrong but it hasn't happened, which freebie global superstars are available in the Summer?
It'll be interesting to see what approach we take, clear the dead wood and increase the quality I'm hoping.
Those signings that seemed to have one eye on the champ, will the extra parachute payments see us be more confident, or maybe see is start to over reach?
Also hoping for some top notch coaching support for Coops, greater analysis, with one eye on why every kept getting bloody injured, also if we can get into the mindset that away game wins are achievable we have a mid table team already.
Another interesting summer awaits.

The papers saying Sheffield United's financial problems will mean they have to cover wages with the promotion windfall, meaning they only have £20m extra to spend, and that 37 year old Billy Sharp may be offered a new contract. Interesting.

I would certainly be interested in Iheanacho. Have always rated him despite the fact that he seems to have not fulfilled his potential.
Daka is another who could be good if treated right.

What about Hendo should we try to sign him or not. I like him and would be happy if we did. However his wages do seem to be a tad outlandish for a goalkeeper, and I doubt he'd want a cut in wages.
Basha73
Vital Football Legend
All depends if we can find better for cheaper. I would be happy if he signed, provided his wage demands fell within our means.
Our "starting" squad for next season has circa 37 players already, so we need to loan out some of the younger players , but raise some funds with some sales too. Even the odd half million adds up, as we have at least a dozen surplus players.
GK Horvath, Hennessey (2)
FB Biancone, Williams, Toffolo, Richards, Drager, Laryea (Aurier if he has a resign clause) (7)
CB Worrall, Niakhate, Felipe, McKenna, Boly, Cook, Soh , Panzo (8)
MF Mangala , Shelvey, Gibbs-White, Kouyate, Yates, Freuler, Danilo, Mighten, Scarpa, O'Brien, Fornah, Ojeda, Bowler (13) Assuming O'Brien is coming back
FWD Johnson, Awoniyi, Surridge, Dennis, Wood , Hui-Jo , Taylor D
Going Colback, Lingard, Navas, Henderson Cafu, Lodi ??, Taylor L Ayew, Smith
Need to sell Horvath ? , Drager, Laryea?, Soh, Panzo, Cook (probably no value), Shelvey, Freuler, Mighten, Ojeda, Bowler, Surridge, Dennis, Wood ?, Hui-Jo .
Dale Taylor out on loan ?
That still only leaves us with three or four vacancies for quality players ! We might have to add Scarpa, O'Brien, and McKenna to release some more places. I think they all have something to offer, but can we get better players ?

We need much better than both of those Basha.
I’d like walker-peters from Southampton
Yes. According to Boro fans, Djed Spence is a nothing player and not even fit to pick the peanuts out of Jones's shit.
Bearing in mind, the gulf in class between Jones and Spence based on Boro fans' account, I would say this would pretty much there or thereabouts make Jones the best player in his position in the world.
Jones was only a sub in their last play-off game. Has he been out injured, or is he out of form ?
