Summer Transfer Shit and Everything Else

I think we should be going for something slightly different to mix things up when required, or it's just more of the same. We really need some form of game changer for the hard to break down teams.

Not entirely sold on Coman either as he has been very injury prone in the last season or two.

I think the whole route one striker thing is all very well until you consider that there aren’t that many players who are good at it, even Toney it’s about link up play and being on the wavelength of his team mates to be in the right place to slot in chances (and that’s when he was scoring goals)

Even City took ages to bring in a forward until they had Haaland become available. In many respects I think we already have a more route one player in Havertz in terms of someone who holds up the ball and can get headed goals. Actually if anything what we need is someone with a low centre of gravity who can terrify defenders with pace.

I never said we needed a route forward, just a player that will actually shoot on sight and on target will do.

It seemed inferred that if you want a player that can offer something different from how we play, it was a player that’s more direct. I’d argue that it’s not so much that we blaze loads of chances high and wide, it’s more that they are blocked by the team with about eight or nine outfield players in their own penalty box

Well yes that is true to some extent, but that's as much our own doing as it is the defending team.

This sums it up for me so far.

Still 30 odd hours+ to go though.

TLDW, but yes 30-odd hours to go and I'm pretty certain they'll try to bring someone in, if they don't we're short up front for sure

He's not too bad tbh, but we don't have much choice in the way of fan channels - at least it's not Lee Gunner :ilt:

Looks like we have agreed a loan deal with Bournemouth for Neto.

We've walked away from Garcia as they want the full 30m euros paid up front (which is too much for another GK in this window, imo)
