Looks ok but can he manage the step up... maybe a loan?Hopefully it's one Doucoure in, one out
Strange commentIf we sign Almiron that will be worse than hiring Benitez.
Would be a very good signing this, he'll end up in the Prem one way or anotherBeing linked with Cheick Doucoure from Lens. He is a 22 year old DM. There is no price mentioned, but 3 other premier league clubs also listed with an interest. His stats look good, in terms of tackles, Interceptions and passing

Strong looking fella , good in a tackle and mobile looks ideal.Looks like the kind of DM we need with mobility and good distribution skills
As long as his knees don’t explode after 2 games it’s a yes from meLooks like the kind of DM we need with mobility and good distribution skills
We seen to be the team lacking any transfer movement again…
He reminds me of that lad from blues clueshis head and his thumb are exactly the same shape!
Noooooooooooooo!
No we aren’t.
I get this but in this scenario what would be your proposed way forward?
Frank settles on 433 and 523 as his preferred formations (e.g wide players needed in both)
El Ghazi returns to Villa, Richarlison gets his move. Townsend doesn’t look like being ready until Christmas because of his cruciate.
Iwobi is first choice in the attacking midfield role in 433, or the RWB role in 523.
After player sales, we spend the majority of our transfer budget on a first choice centre back, first choice defensive midfielder, and a central striker as replacement for Richarlison.
That leaves Gordon and Gray as our only wingers in the squad. Dobbin is promoted to cover one flank.
What do you do for the other? Do you hope we don’t get injuries. Do we move Iwobi out wide? Do we promote another youth winger who might not be ready? Play someone out of position?
I know this is a hypothetical scenario but it’s easily one that could unfold this summer.
I agree with your principle, we don’t want to hoarde average players but equally we’re a million miles off having two quality players for each position and we’re already maxing out using the academy (Gordon Branthwaite Simms Dobbin) just to make the squad up.
Cornet, 25, scored nine goals this season but could not prevent his club from dropping into the Championship, which triggers a £17.5 million relegation clause which has been looked at by West Ham and Everton.
We keep Richy. Kean plus Mina plus Keane, Gomes and Allan should generate £70m.I get this but in this scenario what would be your proposed way forward?
