All of these would improve us. Almirron is better than ElGahzi and Trez. Williams better than Taylor and would improve a lot on top of that. Fred is like a mix of Luiz and Nakamba.. Woods is a handful. Westergaard scores goals and a good player. I don’t know how much they cost though.

I don’t know how much they cost though. 1) the way you improve is to buy first team players and push your first team players to back up players. While you improve your squad by upgrading your backup players it’s not real growth. 2) I’m not convinced the players you have chosen are materially better than those you suggest or players good enough for our back up. Also they would cost a lot of money. Almiron is a great little player, I like his work ethic but Newcastle paid 21.5m from MLS,. They’d want a massive premium on that and I’m not convinced at all he’s a massive upgrade on Trez. Williams is a Man U player, young...they won’t let him go for cheap plus apparently he’s on 65k per week so would want a big pay increase to come here. Is he really worth it? I haven’t seen enough in his play to be after him... Fred gets a lot of game time at Man U, he isn’t moving Chris Woods, yes a handful. I see and agree it would be nice to have someone that plays like him as an option but not convinced he’s who would be in our sights. Decent goal scoring record but would be six months short of his thirtieth birthday and that kind of age isn’t in our scouting profile. I think age and mobility would mean we wouldnt be interested. I just think we’ll be looking for a bit more from a player than what he offers if we are looking for the step up.

Can someone explain to me what Brandon Williams has done in the game to deserve 65k pw? Don't get me wrong I think he's decent enough. That club is ridiculously poor in the way that it is being run.

Crazy, that a decent young kid at 19 signs a 4 year 65k per week contract...total value 13.5m by the age of 23. Club has an option for 5th year. Imagine having 13.5m by when you are 23 and you aren’t even close to being one of the best kids around....right place, right time for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick76 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 3 minutes ago, Danishlad said: good points Nick, who are your suggestions. This is where I’m really poor....I just don’t know! Every play I look at would be too much, wouldn’t come or another reason. I have in my head the type of players we need but not the names. Rico Henry and Vestergaard are good shouts for LB and CB. A Giroud type player (but much younger) would be a striker I think we need as an alternative to Watkins and Wes. I still think we need that midfield boss, enforcer and Captain type in the Roy Keane mould. Then we need somebody in the Ross Barkley role...no idea on that. I would also like a pacey player to play mainly on the RW but can play across the front. I think we need more pace but again not sure who. Obviously a lot of asks there and no names. I’m not expecting them, but all I want is that we do pick quality and even just one or two real quality will make such a difference to us. As an example Emi has just took as defence to a new level, same with Ollie at the other end. So I just want quality in over quantity now. Another example, if we had a young Roy Keane (just as he was when he moved to Man U) in our current team we would be looking at being higher in the league now IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
