Probably only going to get more mental once the new TV deals properly kick in as well.
Schneiderlin would seem to be a decent option. Joining us is a step up for him and might buy us a year before he starts bitching about wanting to play as central striker.Quote:

If it;s to be him then I can't see why we couldn't get a deal done sooner rather than later.
I do think we need a striker who's Giroud with better instinct, speed and finishing. Walcott for me is an instinct player, if you give him time, he overthinks and fail. Personally, I think Sonogo has a potential for this, but we need him to click in training and produce on pitch and not trial and error on the pitch. Our strikers right now only does one specific job, not very multi-dimenstional.
Midfield, I do agree that Coquelin is good enough, but need someone who can be backup in that position when call upon but also good enough to push for a starting place, like Schneiderlin.
Defense, I have high hope for Gabriel from what I've seen this season, so hopefully he can push Mert out and see how he works with Kos. I would also like to bring someone in in central defense for backup to Mert for once he's gone (I know we've got Chambers), and wasn't Jenkinson going to be a central defender?
Goalkeeper, for whatever reason Scezny really stank this year, his reaction was slow, he played like Mert without the World Cup. Ospina did good until the last couple of games. But I'm not too fuzz about goalkeeper, they can be improved, but unless it's real top class, who's definitely better, I don't see the point of bringing a keeper in.
Not exchanging Koscielny for Ronaldo/Bale? That's crazy talk.
Forget Sanogo. He has that problem where he can't get a clean strike on the ball or sort his feet out quick enough to pop off a shot. Every goal of his I've seen have been rollers or he's bundled them in. Plus his injury record is really bad.
Theo's injury record is poor also and that's kept back his development. He's instinctive and does overthink sometimes but when he gets a good run, he gets clinical and it all starts to come together. He stops overthinking and just does what's intended. But again, not sure we can count on Theo with his injury record but out of all the players, he's the one I think that can get 30 goals a season.
It's a crazy premise in the first place.
Swaps. :lol:
It is unusual to say the least. If people think a world class keeper rather than what we have would be worth an extra 10-15 points a season, what do they think Cronaldo is worth here?
I dunno, we're already pretty good at taking penalties.Quote:

Think Jack and Ramsey are then in the mid 80's or touching the 90's and then after them you have most of the rest of the first team in the 60 - 75 k bracket.
This is all gross pay before tax though which I'm assuming it's up to the players and their representatives to deal with.
As for Millner, the reports I've read say he's going to be earning 150k at Liverpool after rejecting 165k at Man City.

Scoring goals isn't that much of a problem for us Blink; keeping them out is though.Quote:

What does Football Manager say?Quote:
