Fullbacks are the priority right now, followed by a top quality central midfielder. Central defender will probably be this summer's priority and we may look to cash in/upgrade other positions in the squad, depending on the interest we have.

Popular Post Jas10 Posted January 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 11, 2022 Sort this & offload Trez next please We need to move on from substandard players and keep improving. Get some funds in too. All onboard (again) with a new DM. Honestly, the most crucial signing we can make. Far too weak and easily outmuscled in midfield & we struggle to dictate and control possession. Need a boss in there… 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 £15m for him would be good. I actually like El Ghazi but that fee… you don’t turn that down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying it’s corruption but the unbalanced amount of decisions going one way for some is too obvious now that it’s become a joke, that fans aren’t even surprised anymore. In fact, before the game yesterday we knew they’d get influential decisions which would be dubious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Benoît Badiashile young left footed central defender being linked to Toon and Now Wet Spam. Only 20 and the next in the long line of class French centre backs … Clearly an upgrade on Hause and poss even Mings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jas10 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 We really are desperate for that quality DM… it would “complete” our side for the rest of this season at least imo. The time for major changes or any kind of overhaul is in the off season. If people really see the need to upgrade at CB, then I think now is not the time for that. Attempting that now would cause more disruption than anything else imo… just need to up the concentration levels and focus. I personally have no issue with Konsa & Mings. I think it’s a fine partnership that was unnecessarily disturbed before SG restored it. Mings is absolutely crucial to us, the leader and organiser of our team. We struggle badly without him. Konsa is a fine defender with huge potential. An upgrade on Targett will really help us. Coutinho should be an amazing signing for us and with Buendia and Bailey… I think we have a very strong attack. Chances galore for Watkins and/or Ings. Sorting out the midfield is crucial, it’s the highest priority. We need some strength, control and composure in there. Some physicality would be welcome too… maybe the reason our defence looks vulnerable at times is because of how unprotected and exposed it is by our midfield??? I know it’s something that often gets laughed at, but I do get concerned at the lack of height and strength in our team… we need the right balance… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
