    A lot of people talking about needing new full backs - I'm not sure.

    Kosta is coming in, and people saying he's not ready. Do we know this? People said the same about Rogers, and he's done really well, after the first few games. Kosta will get a whole pre-season.
    We've also got Konsa, and KKH (who at least is already here) - so perhaps we could look to sell on Cash, who is probably at his peak value now (hopefully after a good summer with Poland), and boost our funds under PSR.

    With LB we have Digne and Moreno, who hopefully can find his form again.
    As much as Digne's wages are high making it attractive to sell, who is going to pay his current book value of around £12m with those wages, let alone a figure making it worth us selling one of our best players this season.
    Give it another year or 2 and hopefully Chrisene or Sousa (or both) will be ready to step up, meaning the best financial decision is to do nothing right now.
    It seems Revan has also done OK on loan (although I am not sure he will 'make it' here).
    I think the only thing that could change the LB decision is someone like Hermaso on a free, who can cover there.

    I think we need to spend money in CM, particularly CDM.
    I don't think PSR is the major issue some make out, but we can't be dropping big money on 4 or 5 positions without bringing some major money in.

    Kosta has only played about 12 times this season in the Serbian League due to injury, he will need time to get used to the prem. Rogers stepped up from the championship which is superior to the Serbian league. It's also alot easier to throw an attacker/midfielder in at the deep end as opposed to a defender because mistakes made at the back will more likely lead to a goal.

    Konsa's best position is CB alongside Pau, he should only be played there for rotation purposes or due to injuries. I don't think KKH will make it, multiple managers have run the rule over him and none have given him a chance.

    Digne has been great this season but will only decline due to his age if we can upgrade in the summer with a younger alternative we should. Moreno has been poor compared to last season, his injury at anfield really seems to have had an impact.

    Digne's destination will probably be Saudi, they don't care about book values.

    The rest of the players you mentioned are development players and not ready for prem football.

    It's not a done deal, seems unlikely to me.

    Chelsea and Man United could both be hiring soon.

    Rumoured to have been flown in yesterday on a West Ham private jet.

    Already said his goodbyes to the Sporting players who have been given a few days off from training as they have already won the title.

    It's not a done deal but will be surprised if someone comes in at this late stage.

  3. I'd go for Tosin from Fulham and Lloyd Kelly from Bournemouth.

    Both available on free's in the summer and good for english quota.

    There is also Osho from Luton on a free but would be a big step up for him and Luton leak goals for fun he has also scored quite a few OG's this season.

    Lloyd Kelly can play CB and LB the alternative is obvious Hermoso from Atletico that can also do that.

  4. The first goal where he kicks Reyna i thought was a pen.

    We had a similar one where Duran was kicked in the Burnley game for us that was given.

    There is just no consistency.
