Summer transfer window 2023

You mean like Garner and Onana?

The lad Warrington is just not good enough at present or in the coaching and scouting teams opinion, in the immediate/mid-term future. Same story Ellis Smith. Mills seems to be good enough, as did price who chose to leave. It's not like they're just selling everything... they're selling everything thats not deemed good enough.

Don't know what the fuss is about.

No - I mean like Gomes, Gbamin, Delph, Alli, Bolasie, Schneiderlin etc

I'm not changing my bedsheets over the situation - It is what it is. If they're not good enough that's fair enough - but the fans will never get to make that judgement because these kids will never get a game at this club.

Trust the coaching team? Yeah that Haaland lad definitely isn't good enough for us

If the team is strengthened as expected then I'm calling 14th place (if we are lucky with injuries)

Ideally get to 40 points by January when half the team goes to AFCON

International break during this anyway?

I've done the maths and your 1.1 ppg average makes that an ambitious target but faint heart etc...

Been at the golf all yesterday - what have I missed?

Agree, isn't this the point?

At some stage the coaching staff have to take a view on players. If they don't think they are going to make it at the top level, then selling them for as much as possible is the way forward. And remember for all the online accountants here, it's pure profit.

Yes, sometimes they'll get things wrong and we may let someone go who then goes on to have a great top flight career; but so far, they seem to have got most of their judgement calls right

Anybody know who we play when AFCON is on?

Anybody know who we play when AFCON is on?

Not sure but there is a week break during it. There are fixtures in mid January after the fa cup which will be played over 2 weeks. 10 teams will play then have a break. 10 teams will have a break then play the second week.

Bit of a Saudi purge on Fulham, Marco and Mitro being linked with moves away.

Be great if it happened the week before our game.

I would guess the fairway many times if it took you all day

Afcon is 13/1 to 11/2 so ignoring prep / recovery time it's:

If the lose Silva and Mitrovic they could easily become contenders to go down.

If we had money to drop on central midfield mate and i dont think we do, id try for Eze at Palace. That lad is going onto great things in my opinion - surprised one of the CL clubs haven't come in for him.

I like JWP btw.

We’ve missed the boat on Eze. He’ll go to one of the big boys next. As with Olise we need to be going for these top talents when they move from the Championship. Alex Scott likely to be the next, albeit his price tag is already very high.

My thinking exactly mate, if we can pull 15 mill out of them for Iwobi or Gray before then all the better.
