daredevil you can see from the number of links in recent months that there are loads of potential young CB signgings we were considering. Not really the same when you are looking for a striker who'll need to make a major difference to the first XI. Of course it'll be eaiser to get back up players than €70m+ players who we want to push us from 2nd to champions.
JazzG Mosquera, Norgaard and Kepa for under £30m is really good squad building. Zubimendi is a great addition too. Just need to get the CF and winger sorted now and it'll be a great summer.
Yep LW, Striker as a minimum.
Another creative central midfielder would be great too.
Then if players move on like Zinchenko, replace accordingly
Don Pacifico I feel I'm less invested in this 24 hour transfer stuff then maybe some of you 😂but all these posts are the same suggest some update say absolutely nothing other talks are ongoing which anyone could do if they had the time and energy to manage an online account just legacy media links. Most of the actual updates still get broken through the press even if it's marginally slower then the "ITKs"
I skim through and if it's these updates ignore it's just engagement farming rather then ascribe any significance.
Ideally we bring in Eze and then go for a 1v1 transition monster like Gittens, Barcola or Leao. There’s more risk with those guys but you have the backstop in Eze, who can also play in multiple roles. I wish we were in for Gittens but I’m starting to come around on taking a chance on Leao if the price is right. I’m just worried Rodrygo doesn’t have the explosiveness athletically that will help him in the EPL while also not being very strong. I am probably wrong as smarter people than me really rate him but I worry about his physical traits especially when some fans compare his signing to that of Alexis. Alexis was a physical freak whereas Rodrygo seems to be much more skill oriented. Wingers in the EPL tend to succeed more with outlying physical traits IMO.
samthegooner if we get Eze and a LW and Sesko/Gyokeres (in addition to all the signings we are supposed to be doing at midfield and the back) we will win the league. It would be our best window ever and our best squad ever. Fuck city and Liverpool
P.S: Even if we sign one of Eze/LW I’ll be fine with that
Remember July 3rd - we signed Sol Campbell (2001) and Eduardo (2007) on that day. How do I know? It’s my bday 😀
Our boy cross jumping in
Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert I swear it was only a year or two ago where he burst onto the scene as a 20 year old....time is playing tricks on us all!
IBL I swear it was only a year or two ago where he burst onto the scene as a 20 year old....time is playing tricks on us all!
He's always been old. I remember posting ages ago about this Eze kid Palace had who was a livewire, and when I looked him up he was already about 22
C'mon, get this done. Following in Wrighty's footsteps.
I saw an earlier story saying Villa won't sell, this guy would be phenomenal signing if we could pull it off.
Don't personally think we'll get an Eze/Rogers AND a Rodrygo/Leap. Think it's one of the other.
*Leao
Don Pacifico agreed. Too much of a leap of faith 😉
Don Pacifico If we got Gyokeres and one of that 4 I'd be very happy
Rogers would be a brilliant signing.
Rogers is the one that excites me most. Good age profile too, I wonder how good he might become.
Pepe LeFrits I think for £70m it'd be well worth it but I do wonder where he'd fit in the team for that price. If we sign him it'd be a real signal of intent, it'd be a message to Odegaard and everyone else that no one is untouchable.
Pepe LeFrits always been old 😂
Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert 😂 I realized how silly it sounded as I wrote it but I'm not sorry.
Here's the post! Was nearly 22 already at that stage. Almost a pensioner.
Pepe LeFrits That Eze lad looks a talent. Great name too
Pepe LeFrits
Looks like you may have you figured out a way to use the search function. Whenever I used to search it used to just show threads and jump to one random post which had that word.
@lorddulaarsenal was the one who called him a livewire in the next post, mad the things we remember
Pepe LeFrits I was talking about a you no Pepe LeFrits!
