Player Valuation: £8m
I'd be relatively happy with these 2 as our big signings this summer. If Bernard and iwobi are shifted on and replaced with Townsend and Gray then I think that's sensible business.I agree mate but thats where we are at the moment. Benitez has been brought in to build foundations similarly to what Moyes did over the years and that starts this summer.
We cant keep signing donkeys for £25 million+ at some stage we have to cut our cloth whilst we balance the books again.
No doubt next summer we will spend big as James will go, numerous dross on big wages are off the books and we'll have the BMD naming rights money starting to filter through. Potentially could also see Richarlison leave next year also.
Until then we need to box clever and have options in the squad whilst continuing to strengthen the starting 11.
McNeil & Dumfries is a start if they come - right age, pace, fill positions that need improving in.
They need to be moved on though, for it to make sense.
