if we can’t get shot of 10 plus players I don’t think anyone will be coming in.
Yep. This is where Brands can really earn his corn but, honestly, looking at what he has to shift I really don't envy the job on his hands

I think it was a clear message to Brands and the club, that maybe we need to "blink" on prices/fees we are asking. I would say the one exception is at CB. It's perhaps contingent on Holgate/Brainthwaite's progress. I know one was 8-12 weeks and one was 3-5. The lower end is markedly different to the shorter end on both. The shorter end is Brainthwaite maybe able to take a place on the bench for the Brighton game, but definately fit for the derby and in Holgates case he's about a month away so not too long after that.
I think that ship has sailed. I'd also say, Rangnick will likely get him signed down to a long term deal.
Suffice to say though, I would suspend all other business, if it meant we could get him in.
Unfortunately, I am reliably informed that they have TVs and internet in Milan so I don't think that will work.Under a year on his deal...we should offer Pickford + cash and see what happens.
I doubt they would be asking a huge fee at this stage. Other option of course is pre contract in January so hopefully were trying for a verbal agreement with Raiola now.
Having Donnarumma would be amazing.
There’s someone in that reddit thread who’s seen him play disputing that saying he’s a wide midfielder, but the clip that is online of him he does seem to be playing defensive mid
Romero imo would be a disaster I fear he can't handle pressure of being a no1 throughout his career OK as a number 2 cup games, international etc. We've already got 1 clampet who can't concentrate week in week out we don't need 2.
Its ok saying we need to get rid of players as we have so many, its actually hoping a Team is around to buy half the rubbish we have from over the years, or are we going to just let them run there contract down what's left of it for some
Gets rinsed on that second clip lol
He's really not that good.Jasper Cillessen been linked in the echo.
The bar is low to replace Pickford sadly.He's really not that good.
There's Romero, Heaton and the veteran Caballero who may be able to be prised away relatively cheaply. It's if it can be done easily and quickly to our liking - possibly on loan, and whether they improve what we have in an error prone keeper, is the question.
Can Carlo work his magic on Pickfords temperament as it seems he lacks either concentration or common sense, making the right decisions at the right times, surely that can be coached and he can get better at it.
Carlo has transformed Michael Keane into a very decent centre half maybe he and his coaching staff have confidence they can improve Jordan enough to make it less of a problem. Half of it is surely psychological and not letting mistakes affect you later in the same game, after they've happened and it's gone and done with.
That second goal and his errors may have shown a lack of good decision making on the original cross with his confidence affected from the earlier clanger. Easier said than done but you can't change the past and need to forget it.
when we trim the squad that is currently at 31 players.
He's figuratively the bar. We definitely need better than CillissenThe bar is low to replace Pickford sadly.
