  1. Two years ago we played vs wolves, injurie time penalty won us the game.

    line up that day:

    ————-Martinez,———-

    Cash—- Konsa—-Mings——Targett

    —————-Louiz————-

    Traore—McGinn—Ramsey—Grealish

    ——————Watkins—————

    Two years later, In our last game vs Brighton, the only changes were Digne/Targett, Kamara-Traore, Buendia-Grealish and Ings/Watkins. Not much progress, proberly the oposite. I know Baily and hopefully Carlos will strengheten the team. But we definetly need more.

     

     

  2. I hate the old badge, without our name, and all that yellow. Drawn by a child. The new one is claret and blue, lovely.

    I also like that the lion face the other way. 
     

    The lion itself is good, but maybe the lion from the 2000-2001 shield looked better, not as slim as the new one.

    Thinking about potential strikers that would improve us. Lautaro Martinez (24) would be nice but probably cost about 80-90m. Patrick Schick (26) another option, would be cheaper I guess and looks a right unit up front (clinical too)  

    I also quite like the look of Evanilson (22) at Porto.

    Another others?

    Gouiri at Nice is more of a wide forward if we went down that route, Malen at Dortmund is the same. Perhaps supporting Coutinho out wide. Gouiri/Malen l, Watkins and Bailey might be tasty

    Not convinced with the likes of Osimhen, Danjuma, Cunha

    Raul De Tomas, Espanyol. 3th best goalscorer in La Liga, left out og the pre season squad. We have many spanish speaking players. Buy out is $70m, but will leave for less.

    This is the team I would like v Bournemouth (not necessarily in this formation), with Bailey definitely in it! I think it would be easier to pick if football teams were made up of 12 rather than 11 players. :s Maybe Luis instead of Kamara depending on who impresses most in training between now and then, as with Mcginn and JJ:

                                    Watkins

    Bailey       Coutinho        Ramsey           Buendía

                                Bou Bou Boy

    Digne             Carlos           Mings              Cash

                                        Emi

                    

    This is way to offensive, Luiz in for Ramsey (Gerrard: McGinn for Buendia).

    Most talking about it are talking about it from the perspective of Clubs having to sell before today. If you're under the FFP line by end of today, it can have implications - less so in the Prem (though Everton talked about a lot)

    But quite a bit more important abroad. Spanish clubs for example have some serious complications if they aren't above the line by end of today. Atleti have said if they don't raise €40m today then for every €3 euros they generate July onwards, they could only reinvest €1. Barca are considering selling their TV rights, parts of their media company, De Jong to United. Sevilla saved themselves the hassle by selling us Diego Carlos - otherwise they'd be selling Kounde for penny's on the pound today.

    Are we sure we have paid for him before today? Strange he still not in the squad.

    We bought and demolished a street full of houses when we extended the current Witton Lane stand.  Absolutely no reason why they couldn't do it again.   

    Yes, but next time the road has to be moved further, and more houses demolished because of A taller new stand. The road also got a higher category after the last upgrade. But I hope I am wrong.

    Be interested to see how we handle the Whitton Lane situation if/when we get to that stage in a few more years time. 

    With the houses and the road, don`t think I will ever see it done. Liverpool have the same behind the Kop and Kenny Daglish stand, they cant do anything about it. But with our owners you never know.

    Think we need to sell some players before more incomings.

    We have 4 first team goalkeepers ( Kalinic and Steer out on loan I guess)

    9 defenders, including Young, but not Chrisene and Hayden. (This is ok)

    12 midfielders, plus Carney, Tim, JPB, Azaz and Aaron Ramsey. 
    4 strikers, plus Wesley on loan.

    Purslow said selling players are the difficult job. I doubt we can sell Davis, Trez, El Gahzi and Sanson for more than 20m. Carney 5m and House 3m? If we bring in more money than that we have to sell first 11 players (Ings, Louiz, McGinn)
