Summer transfer window 2023

Thank god Fulham have already grabbed Jiminez is all I'll say

At 5m quid it looks like a relatively low cost risk. Before his injury he was brilliant and linked elite clubs.

And if the reason the manager can't be backed is due to lack of money available how will replacing people on the board changes that? The only person that can change that is Moshiri

Moshiri needs to go first and foremost.

Thing is, Iheanacho is okay (and infinitely better than Che Adams et. al) but he is a different style of striker to Dom. The point of Toure was meant to be that he matched DCL's skillsets. We shouldn't just pivot to a different style of striker, and if we do, it should be Orban.

If we want a big, fast striker, it should be Boulaye Dia.

This is the main issue. There will be plenty of strikers out there that suits the way we play with dom. The only difference will be the level of quality.

Think iheanacho is a good player and his hold up and bringing others into play is decent. Just hasn’t got that explosive pace.

Yes agree, Dia of the names mentioned looks a good bet. Although in reality it we can punt Maupay/Gray two forwards would be preferable.

Agreed but unfortunately, as the owner, it would require him to sell the club as I don't think he is the type of owner to take a backseat and employ a high quality CEO to manage the business

Mills gone to Oxford i see.

Best of luck lid.

Smash it.

 

[GrandOldSte117]

He is the same height as Maupay.

fair point

 

[Jadubsee]

Sell Gray.

Sign Gnonto, Iheanacho.

This. How hard can it be? Genuinely.

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

What's his handicap?

Probably a two or three because he seems to have lots of spare time especially during transfer windows.

But Traore is oiling himself up now waiting for the call.

 

[JD98]

Seem to recall that we only signed Maupay only after losing out on other targets. Let’s hope they’ve actually got a decent backup plan this time.

I find all this strange with the likes of Warrington Mills and possibly Cannon going out on loan, i would only be doing this once you have your squad ready for the season.

These lads should be going towards deadline day 'just in case'

Where is the Reveeler? Come on mate any old rubbish will do to cheers us up a bit and get this thread moving again

Good point mate. Would agree.

I am fully expecting us to be linked with Adama Traore in the near future. That's where we're getting to now.
