I think the sales are fine. Matsen I think may struggle in the PL due to his size and I think £37.5m is a decent fee. Hall is also fine, although I think he will become worth more than that fairly quickly. Hucth I am fine with so long as the 25% sell on is correct. 

The problem for me is the buys. KDH is fine, but does he provide additional quality? Estevao and Kellyman are pure punts on 'talent', with Kellyman being particularly speculative. Guiu, is a good buy simply due to how low the fee and wages are reportedly. Tosin is ok as a free, but my Fulham mate has seriously worried me that he isn't that great at deafening, so not sure if he actually brings much to the table if my friend is to be believed. 

What a crazy upside down world we live in where an 18 year old earning two million pounds a year can be accurately described as low waged. Poor lad

Not buying it. He might linger as this seasons Bettineli because he too is classed as homegrown but otherwise i don't see him lasting through pre-season. Nothing to be gained from putting out that players have no future,think if we get someone like Marmadashvili,either him or Kepa in the package will be something we'll attempt.

Only positive is that if he continues to struggle or look mediocre we’ll probably only have to put up with it until January. By then the club hierarchy will have realized how absolutely crucial a top bal playing keeper is to a Maresca system.

This is basically the club saying to Sanchez “you have one last chance to prove yourself. If not, we buy someone in January.”

At least I hope so.

I’m not so sure.

Look at how the squad is geared up and how they absolutely believe in a huge % of the signings they’ve made are champions league players/a champions league squad. Going by that logic regarding players looking mediocre and struggling, you’d hope that other players like Mudryk also be under the same spotlight.

No doubt, Robert Sanchez will fall into that category also. Putting trust in this hierarchy is a dangerous game. 

And ok Sanchez wasn’t quite as comfortable or confident playing out under de Zebri whose teams typically entice other teams to press them but he played a lot under Potter who also had him playing out. That would of been part of the criteria when the club identified him.

Maybe Broja. Or Badiashile so they can directly replace Calafiori like for like.

He has mentioned Chelsea previously. I think if it comes down to us or Arsenal he will choose us. 
 

We have at least some history with Italian greats. Arsenal not so much.

Astute signing, in my books.

Makes me optimistic for next season, already. 

[Blue Armour 4,290]

I'll double down on what I said next season.

We WILL see the best of Enzo & Caicedo when they have an experienced no-nonsense CM playing along side them. 

I think KDH can be that missing piece.

Slanderous to slag off another countries government and with baseless theories and claim that we were sailing in your one man boat to paranoid island.

I'd say it was kind of me to presume you were drunk than just a window licker.

He has mentioned, yes but that was 2022. Arsenal have Jorginho now, one of the leaders in the Italian team + they're playing great consistently for a couple of seasons. I think its still very much possible he leans towards Arsenal.

Complete joke.

Matt Law said that the club will assess in pre-season and then take a call later in the window if they need to go into the market. Sanchez, Kepa, Petrovic - Need to shift out 2 to get a keeper in. Slonina is also around after a loan in the Belgian league

Chilly is on pretty big wages, right? I wonder if any PL will go near him with his large wages, high transfer fee we’d demand, and constant injuries. And he doesn’t strike me as a Saudi kinda guy as he’s only 27 and surely still in the England picture with their lack of LB’s.

 £200,000 per week
