Im not sure people are against him, but he’s going to cost 100 million, when we require reinforcements in many areas of our squad.
For a similar price you can probably get Branthwaite and Todibo or Varela and Thuram/Onana.
Id be happy if we did...
Just don’t see him as a 100 million talent, especially with our limiting spending, could probably buy Varela and Thuram or Todibo and Branthwaite for a similar amount of money.
Especially with the drop off in the quality from our first team to...
Don’t personally want to spend 100 million on him, he’s a great talent, but we aren’t in the position to spend that much and it potentially be another failure.
Probably be around 6/7 out and 3/4 in my opinion:
Out
Martial (free agent)
Varane (free agent)
DVB
Sancho
Greenwood
Maybe a couple of others.
In:
RB/LB
CB
CM
CM
Backup ST
RW
Is what we need minimum, whether we get them all remains to be seen.
May be we should stop blowing our transfer budget on 3 players and look to find players who are more reasonable in price who fit the system we want to play.
It’s the easy passes that infuriate me the most, we can’t even make simple passes around to one another, so many yesterday that just consistently either went out of play or were just poor passes in general that were difficult to receive.
Needs to improve his decision making going forward, second penalty was fortunate and he wasted some good opportunities, still 19 so plenty of time and the future looks good for him.
