Strike

Hope we don't fuck around with a ball playing keeper and just go get him after the Euros. He's just turned 29 but I think he can continue at the top level for a while and is ready to make the jump to a high level PL keeper.

I hope they ease him in. Endrick was thrown into a high-pressure Copa America knockout game vs Uruguay where he was mostly fouled.

Time to cut our losses

I am just glad they touched the midfield since the rumours were mainly about a CB and ST. He could complement Enzo and Caicedo in the middle and is an upgrade on Connor. No complaints.

Glad to see Bielsa doing well with Uruguay

Guiu is just to turn a profit. Still have a spot in the squad

Plenty of better options. Nico Williams is the same age and has a 46m pounds release clause.

Not every signing needs to be based on potential. I think Clearlake have done well so far after a rocky start but there are some spots in the squad which could really use a senior player who can come in and play at a high level straight away. Calafiori at 42m is not an expensive deal either unlike Enzo and Caicedo.

Not a bad thing to do. But strengthen the XI as well. Signing Renato Veiga after tracking Calafiori for the first team is the issue.

I'm all for adding a few players in their prime to round out the squad we have. Can't afford another season where we stagnate, are inconsistent because we are playing young players all over the pitch.

Why buy him when there's already Lesley, Santos, Casadei who are DMs waiting to be assessed?

Arsenal are getting a serious upgrade. We are experimenting with another 20 year old. Missing an opportunity to put together a strong XI

Ornstein saying he will be used as an inverted full-back

Looks like a 40 year old

Clearlake outmanoeuvred. Good move for Arsenal if they can close the deal. Upgraded Kiwior/Zinchenko at LB for a decent price. Lack of transfer developments from us this week coinciding with Neil Bath/Fraser leaving, complete restructuring of the youth setup going on.

Not too worried we missed on Olise and Calafiori. They're not once-in-a-generation kind of players. Plenty of players we can still sign and complete the team.

Would rather get Pedro Neto. Cheaper and is a really good winger.

The real story is why they walked. Especially when we are on the verge of closing the deals for some of the top 50 teenagers on the planet - Paez, Estevao, Anselmino,

I agree. Hell of a risk letting Neil Bath/ Fraser walk. We will lose a lot of the knowledge of the young players coming through around London. I'm reading Joe Shields and Sam Jewell are taking their roles. The new U21 coach is from Portugal, brought in to play possession tactics.

Fabrizio is saying only two clubs in talks for Calafiori - Arsenal and Chelsea in that order as of now. Long-term proposal made by Arsenal. Chelsea are still there.

Think its because Calafiori is a unique opportunity. We might stick with Chilwell if we can't get him

Yup. Our powerpoint presentation is persuasive but it does not always work.

Have to add - Di Marzio has been wrong recently. He said talks are progressing well over Carney loan to AC Milan with an option to buy. This story was then shot down.

Di Marzio is saying Arsenal are favorites for Calafiori. Chelsea, Bayer have also moved for him.

There will be 4 if we sign a striker (David)
