It's not just taking chances, it's having a player that can cause panic and uncertainty to the centre halves, whether it's being able to come short and take the ball into feet use strength/pace, peel off the last man, we've got nothing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no good deals around this summer except for the Ekitike who it seems everyone and his dog wants. He is a development player too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure that's the case I think most just acknowledge that we have much more pressing issues, and can probably live with the lads we have for now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we need wingers, but SG doesn't play that type of system. Maybe that's the issue? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We said the same about ollie ans look whats happened this year. We need two quality players in each position. Cash has been generally good this year but defensively wan bassaka is a lot better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The right striker absolutely makes Coutinho + Buendia work. Also suits Ings' game more, while Ollie is better suited to a side playing more on the counter with wingers, imo. Question is, who and how much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekitike is more of a prospect but he isn't currently better than the two starters.

HalfTimePost Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Chambers will be backing up Cash next season until Kesler is ready for the step up. We already have one of the most exciting talents in England at RB and our senior starter is seriously linked to Atleti. Think we'd be silly to spend money there to plug the gap in-between. We really shouldve sorted Hickey in the last window. He'd be ideal to challenge both Cash and Digne, plugging the gap for Kesler on the Right before replacing Digne himself.

CVByrne Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Ending 14th will cost us in the transfer market. We'll never know exactly how but the millions in lost revenue and visually for potential signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the difference of a few places and 6/7 million quid is going to make a huge amount of difference in the grand scheme of things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
