Always one or two big injuries away from disaster every season, it's becoming laughable now

Yup. Probably RJ and and Chily will hit the wall some time in autumn as well and we will be left with a squad worse than last season’s. Can’t blame the medical staff for the sunk cost perma cripple fofana or the Ed sheeran Quagmire but as the season goes on our Foo fighter doctors will surely play their part.

Gusto > James

The Tyler Adams move still has me confused. The long term starting pairing will *crosses fingers* be Enzo + Caicedo. Then we have THREE quality teenagers in Andrey, Casadei, and now Ugochukwu who play in CM/DM. It’s already going to be an issue finding space for all these guys.

So adding Adams who is still just 24 makes things even more of a headache in the long term. For this season specifically where we can use his PL experience it makes sense, I suppose. But what happens if Casadei and Ugo have extremely impressive loans and Andrey really impresses while staying here? We’ll have loads of midfielders then who all are good enough to be playing regularly and not enough minutes to go around.

 

I am against the Tyler Adams buy.

I think it is a marketing buy, just like Pulisic was.

Thar said,  I am not going to lose my mond over it.

If he was a creative hybrid CMF/AMF like Gabri Viega, then sure, no problems (if a low price) but he is not that type if player.

Lol Gusto has not played a single PL game yet. a fit RJ is still the best fullback in the world

Still the drop off isnt as big as having finished Azpi around. We have our positions covered A LOT better than the last few seasons.

They'll always be a bit of natural paranoia after the last couple of season's but instincts are telling me it was a precaution due to the pitch.

Hopefully I'm right.

  So much for that (if reports are true). 😔

Maybe it is but a 20m + reasonable wages Marketing buy . So if the board really sees any commercial benefit of a player who costs peanuts and does not demand playing time, I am actually all for it. However, if it means no proper quality DM being bought then to hell with tiny Ty.

Adams isn't a marketing buy. Poch apparently wants PL experience to bring off the bench vs 18-19 year olds with hardly any top flight experience. 

Adams has a mighty 24 PL games experience. Even Caicedo has more

Look, I do not want to get bogged down over CBs. We have not even sold Trevoh and CuCu, which my entire post was predicated upon.

I MUCH more am concerned over DMF, probably CF plus RW and creative AMF too.

Kudus plays everywhere up front, which is why, again, I posted the reply (if we bought him he frees up a slot as he adresses both AMF and RW and he even can play SS and CF.

We apparently are trying to scupper Brightons deal with him atm.

We need to close out Caicedo asap!

It's getting ridiculous. 

At CF, just sort the Juve swap deal for Rom plus cash.

Yes, the low cost makes it not so so bad.

Do you think that Adams really may end up the only DMF type we buy?

As in Adams will be the buy that replaces a failed Caicedo attempt?

I will lose it then.

Every credible jounalist said that Adams and Caicedo are 2 completely seperate deals, so no way Adams would be our only DM buy

I really hope not. The board would be taking the piss if so. Seriously Poch would rightly feel kidded. 
but If the board sell it right, promise to sign quality DM in Jan, Poch might still grudgingly swallow his tongue but surely the relationship would be strained.
