alreadyexists Posted August 1, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 1, 2020 I wonder if we could get Harry Wilson from Liverpool. He was impressive on loan last year and I can’t see him getting many minutes at Liverpool with their midfield... if we could offer £15m or so I reckon we could get him (or maybe more like £20m I suppose these days). Still young and will just get better in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big no from me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was never a fan to be honest, you see little glimpses but generally I just didnt see enough there for a regular spot in a first XI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolta Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 1 hour ago, PieFacE said: 15m on a new left back. Again, not sure who at this point. I'm always surprised when I see suggestions we need a new LB before a new RB. Targett is good and affects games—as we've seen, his chance creation stats are really good. Then at RB we have not a lot. I like Elmo, but we need to be more ambitious in that position. Guilbert is OK, but he wasn't even making the squad recently, and there's a reason for that.. He looks good in bursts when we're playing well, but when we're not, he disappears into his shell big time. We need someone at RB who feels confident at this level and who feels they can influence the game at all times. Sure, we'd likely want to replace Taylor, but having a decent first-choice RB is essential. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's either still massively finding his feet, or he's only good enough to be a squad player. I'd definitely have him as a backup RB, but for me, apart from the three positions up front, getting a good RB is the next most important place to strengthen. A touch less important is a new CM—but that would still be 'highly important' if we really want to push on next season.

How would he know that at the beginning of the transfer window that the manager, CEO and SD would get together within a two week window to discuss.......wait for it......transfer targets. Those three will be talking multiple times daily from the start of the transfer to the end of the transfer window whether in person, video conference or by calls. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really dont think we need a RB or LB but I would pay 30 million plus on a midfielder. The CM position is.critcal. luis, McGinn and imagine a ball winning aggressive player. Connor cant cut it in the big games! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skarroki Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 The Ajax side seems to be getting picked apart already this window and players like Ziyech went at reasonable value. I'd love to see us try for Neres or Promes for the wings or Martinez at DM but not sure if they'd give up European football. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jareth Posted August 1, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 1, 2020 In the world of Zoom and with a quite pressing need to get players signed, often with the process beginning the middle of the season before - I somehow am cynical that DS and our new DOF are yet to pencil a face-to-face meeting on targets until sometime in the next 2 weeks.
