Let's instead go for him ahead of Phillips and spend less on a cm. Ok he might reject us but when he sees the plans we have here he might be persuaded. He would be a absolutely sensational signing for us. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And given our new transfer model, neither would the club. So basically it's a non-starter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem was we had a good idea, or at least someone at the club did, but we had none of the infrastructure to support support them properly, or a management and coaching structure to get the best out of them, and worst of all the manager just wanted to buy crap overpaid old English players. I don't think Sherwood had the nouse to get the best out of veretout tbh, he needed time to settle and develop and he didn't get it. Also i think our play style and formation wasn't conducive to getting the best out of them. So yeah seems one guy had the right idea and the rest of the club did their best to f*ck it up. I habe no doubt that Deano, the coaches and people at the club right up to suso would have no trouble integrating and getting the best out of these types of players now. Under the regime pre relegation we got the first 5% right and then proceeded to completely wreck the following 95% of the plan....or lack of plan. It's rumoured that Sherwood didn't want Veretout, so did his best to ostracise him from the start. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tin hat on ... I'd much prefer Wanyama tbh and after their new signing yesterday I think he will be on the move but he will probably have teams higher up the scale looking at him.

Villarocker Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I think we should stop fantasising about signing players from Spurs. We'd be lucky to get Danny Rose and he's one that actually wants to move! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AXD Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I still would like to see us sign 1. Mings 2. DM (nakamba is available for €7m rather than £20m apparently) 3. Abraham/ST 4. Tuanzebe/CB in that order. With all the namens being shouted, we would be doing a Fulham. Keep as many of last years team, the dynamic was good and we can improve a few areas (eg Wesley and Targett) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nath_s91 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) Is there anyone missing that should be back at training? some may be due back next week due to internationals. no Bjarnasson, Mcginn or Kalinic by the look of it, Tishbola's there which is interesting https://twitter.com/AVFCOfficial/status/1146425864739049473 Edited July 3, 2019 by Nath_s91 Edited to add direct link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Bournemouth have been linked with Billing which is a shame because with their track record for wildly overpaying for players his price will inexplicably rise ridiculously. Would be happy with either Billing or Phillips or both as replacements for Whelan & Jedi... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 23 minutes ago, alreadyexists said: Weird. Could Kalinic still be injured? Kalinic was in the Croatia national team squad who played Tunisia on the 11th of June (on the bench). He, like McGinn and Bjarnasson who were also on international duty, will likely have been given an extra week break before having to return for pre-season training. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rosk Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 McGinn has probably been allowed an extra few days' rest from the 20,000 miles he ran last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
