This I agree with- The next signing has to be a top top quality CF and stop all this hit and hope with players.

Gyokeres is the man we should be all over.

If he's not a United player in the summer, that would be a massive shock. 

[Mhsc 929]

Heh, just saw Osimhen is only 4th top scorer in Turkey, 1 goal ahead of Dzeko who is 38 years old.

Surely at this point he just sees out his contract with Napoli and then gets a free transfer to somewhere. Unbelievable how bad he + his agent bottled it and ruined his career.

Viktor Gyökeres will be allowed to leave Sporting for €70M-€75M (£61.6M-£66M) in the summer. 🇸🇪

Manchester City is now on the verge of signing Abdukhodir Khusanov (20/🇺🇿). The Premier League club submitted an official bid today, a package worth €50m including bonuses.

I agree but we actually need to try, and by try I mean try and lay the foundations now

Reis played 22 games in professional career and we are sure he is amazing talent. Based on what? We got Anselmino who literally played same amount of games in South America. Time will tell for both. If we got him people would say we need experienced and proven CB which is true tbh. 

I personally think CB is least of the worries for City. They have Dias, Gvardiol, Stones, Akanji and Ake. Reis may be for the future but unlike them we do need experienced CB right now. People just like to complain...

Yeah, City going all in on not one but two super young CB’s this month when that’s one of the areas of their squad that’s actually pretty strong is weird. Unless there are some long term injuries to some of them. I don’t pay any attention to City so I’m not sure.

I wonder if they’re stocking up on a load of players now while they can before a transfer ban comes down on their heads.

We’re now being linked with Kvara. I love him as a player but why are we interested in another attacking midfielder, ffs?!

Even if we can all assume Mudryk is done here we still are well stocked. And have Estevão coming in in the summer.

He’ll almost surely go to PSG or elsewhere but man. Use this kind of money on areas of actual need!

big LWer breakdown:

Kvaratskhelia is a LWer and is ambipedal, but plays mostly on the left, not the right

Estevão is a left footed RWer, so 2 different types of player

I assume we will eventually sell Muddy and Felix (who is not a pure LWer and lacks pace)

so it would be Kvaratskhelia and Sancho as our 2 LWers

there are 6 WC left wingers out there who are potentially available (assuming Real Madrid does NOT sell either Mbappe or Vini Jr, and I so doubt either would come here anyway)

the first two and the last one can also play AMF and SS (and the first two  are the 2 best IMHO, after the abovementioned Mbappe and Vini Jr))

Florian Wirtz   
Jamal Musiala  
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia
Rafael Leão
Nico Williams   
Xavi Simons  

there are 4 another wild cards for LW

Rodrygo (he is right footer who plays out of postion on the right at Real due to RM's overload on the left)

he would be a superb left winger as well, but again, I so doubt Real would sell him

Jamie Gittens of Dortmund is the 2nd wild card (and is only 20yo, so prime age for the BlueCo model)

Kenan Yıldız of Juve is the 3rd, and he is only 19yo (but so doubtful Juve would sell him for annything other than silly money)

Johan Bakayoko of PSV Eindhoven is the 4th, but he has regressed a bit this seaons (he is only 21, so still have a long time to come good, BUT I am leary of Dutch League players overall)

 

all that said

Bradley Barcola at PSG is another WC left winger, but I see no possible scenario where PSG would sell him, he is the 2nd leading scorer in Ligue 1, trailing Jonathan David of Lille (a CF) by one goal, plus Désiré Doué has not exactly set the world on fire at PSG so far

Dani Olmo and Ademola Lookman (who also, like Wirtz, Musiala, and Simons also play AMF and /or SS) plus Diaz and Gapko of Pool, and Doku of Citeh are the last of the WC left wingers, but Barca just won their appeal (granted temp) and have now registred Olmo to play, and I also do not see Atalanta selling Lookman, same for Gapko (Diaz is wanted BADLY by the Saudis, and has said IF he leaves Pool it will NOT be for another EPL club) No chance Citeh sell Doku.

I am not yet sold on Álex Baena of Villarreal, Gordon of NUFC would be insanely expensive for the quality, and obviously Pulisic is not coming back here. I do not rate Adeyemi of Dortmund enough to think about buying him. Far too inconsistent. Mathys Tel has had a poor year he is only 19yo, and the porrness also comes from almsot no playing time atm), and is more of a CF than a winger. Need to see another year or 2 from Antonio Nusa at Leipzig.

All the other great wingers not listed above are RWers

Lamine Yamal 
Bukayo Saka  
Phil Foden 
Raphinha  
Michael Olise 
Mohamed Salah 
Ousmane Dembélé    
Bryan Mbeumo 
Mohammed Kudus    
Geovany Quenda

 

in closing, I probably forgot some names overall at bother wings, but I listed a shedload, lolol

add in Vitor Reis (likely if not a lock) and bloody hell, do I wish we had Citeh's CBs! LOADED with both vets and now youngsters with massive potential.

MF is what is killing them (Rodri out has been devastating obviously, without him they have been so overrun is so many games), plus LB

PSG are apparently trying to pay for Kvrateskellywhatshisface by catalog payments as they are struggling to raise what Napoli want.

In other news, West Ham this morning have asked about Chilwell and Carney

Hasn’t he been super injury prone?

this year yes, but IF he ends up going for only 35, 40m quid or so, and IF he stays healthy the rest of this year, I would not be adverse to a gamble, as when he is healthy he is a monster
