Summer transfer window 2023

[JimmyK]

Oh I'm well aware but if you're happy the clap this narrative along you need to have a strong black coffee and ask yourself why you're okay with it.

This is getting boring now I’m not happy with it probably no one is but this is just how it is so I’m judging it on the reality of the situation instead of what I’d like it to be because there’s no point doing anything else.

Get a new midfielder.

 

[Rob17896]

At the risk of being 'one' of those guys, if we were to get Harrison, Gnonto and Beto, a squad like this would easily keep us up.

Goalkeepers:
Pickford
Virginia

Defenders
LB: Young, Mykolenko
CB: Tarkowski, Godfrey
CB: Branthwaite, Keane
RB: Patterson, Coleman

Midfielders
CM: Onana, Garner, Gana
ACM: Doucoure, Iwobi, Dele

Forwards:
LW: McNeil, Gnonto, Dobbin
RW: Danjuma, Harrison
CF: DCL, Beto, Chermitti

That is a squad of 24.

It would allow Holgate, Gomes, Gbamin, Gray and Maupay to leave permanently. Would also allow for Cannon to go and potentially Dobbin on loan as well.

In the absolute best case scenario, one of Godfrey or Keane go out and we get another experienced CB.

Overly optimisic, but there is a pathway and would allow us to use future windows to improve the foundations of the squad as opposed to being so focused on clearing out high wage dross.

''It would allow Holgate, Gomes, Gbamin, Gray and Maupay to leave permanently.'' I can see perhaps Gray getting similar wages to his current deal. As for the rest I think we have no chance of some idiot giving them a similar deal and paying us a fee. Hope I am wrong but think we might be stuck with the rest.

As deadline draws near negotiations will be done ie relaxing demands & clubs increasing there’s
Didn’t most of our loans last go on or very near deadline day?

Like buying your missus a last minute present from the discount bin because you forgot her birthday is tomorrow.

So our strategy seems to be Leeds attack + Burnley defence to keep us up. Sounds like one of Baldricks cunning plans.

Can someone please get hold of Thelwell’s email address so we can all message him on mass -
‘Buy a Striker’

And everyone uses reply all!

To be fair it’s probably a better option than Leeds defence and Burnley’s attack

Interesting battle of ITK

 

[ToffeeTim]

It's time to get a lot of players moved on. Get as much money as possible or save as much money on wages as possible

We need a striker ready to play PL football as well. Everything else should wait till that's achieved.

I like the release clause; so if he does well, and we do well, we can keep him.

 

[CielosGrises]

Happy enough with the return of Everloan and investments in youth.

But I'm afraid we are going to have to pay for a striker Kev.

I also understand that Everton are not in talks to sign Kelly Brook as they need ‘two up front‘…..is this how ITK works now? Shedding light on things that aren’t happening?

 

[DanEFC92]

West Ham sign Ward-Prowse.

 

[blueblood]

Can someone remind Kev that whilst Harrison is a good bit of business, we still desperately need a striker.
