theboyangel Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 (edited) If it were up to me, I'd look to offload the following: Kalinic - £2m Guilbert - £3m Trezeguet - £5m El Ghazi - £5m Davis - £10m Targett - £15m Hause - £5m Traore - £10m Hourihane - £0 Wesley - £3m Nakamba - £5m Total - £63m Looking at our realistic incoming Olsen - £3m (GK) Bassey - £15m (LB/CB) Bissouma - £30m (CM) Suarez - free (ST) Carlos - £26m (CB) - already done Coutinho - £17m (AM) - already done Kamara - free (CM) - already done Total - £91m Net Spend - £28m That would give us the following: GK - Martinez, Olsen, Sinisalo LB - Digne, Bassey CB - Mings, Carlos, Chambers, Konsa, Bassey RB - Cash, Chambers, Kesler-Hayden DM - Kamara, Luiz, Bissouma CM - Ramsey, Luiz, Bissouma, McGinn, Sanson, Chukwuemeka AM - Coutinho, Buendia, Bailey, Chukwuemeka ST - Watkins, Ings, Suarez, Archer Certainly an improvement on last season with much greater squad depth.

thunderball Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Who knows what the market will pay, and buying first then having to sell is not a great plan, but we are mugs if we don’t get a fair valuation for our players, Purslow and Lange are business men who you expect will wring out the best value on sales too. For me a truer reflection of market value in the PL (or say Ligue 1) is: Wesley - £0 Kalinic - £0 Guilbert - £5-8m Hause £8-10m Targett - at least £15m Traore - £15m Davis - £10-12m Nakamba - £10-15m Sanson - £12-15m El Ghazi - £7-10m Trezeguet - £7m Ings and Luiz could go too, and they’d recoup £45m 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 I’ve seen a couple of tenuous links to Hugo Ekitike, the kid that Newcastle wanted in January. Supposed to be very highly rated and is now being linked to the likes of PSG as well. If we could sell Davis and use Ings in a swap deal for Bissouma, we could bring in Suarez and this guy and drastically improve our attacking options. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give us options and different styles. Gerrard have ten different attackers at rangers not just centre forwards and 10's. Having a couple of pace options out wide of the centre forward makes sense.

Can’t really see the likes of Dybala, Nunez, Lautaro, De Vrij, Koulibaly for example paying us much attention You can probably add Coutinho, Kamara and Carlos to that list too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 I've always loved Milner if I'm honest Could he ay a bridge role for a year, allowing for Iroegbunam to continue getting experience and being mentored and ready for next season? Could be more lazy Bollox anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
