Oh and more than olise and eze

7 assists last season - for context Maddison only got 9 for spurs

No way

No he isn’t don’t be silly

He has been better last 2 years than previous also in regards to quality he is probably still a better player than both of them and no nobody should be plying ward anywhere 😂

How many loans are we allowed this season? We should be going down the Chelsea , Man City and Liverpool squad lists and be all over there lads that aren’t making a match day squad - there will be plenty of them that are very very good players chalobah gilchrist ugochukwo Chuckwmaka santos kellyman Broja fofana kabore phillips mcatee bobb van den burg bajcetic clark carvalho doak absolutely bloody loads of them

Bonkers we still can’t ship him and daka on - they must be on mega money

Yep they should at very least be finding out what kind of money they would have to pay to top up the wages from city - still a player in there

And the daka comparison is pointless - ayew will not be a centre forward- no chance

Did pretty well in the championship- this year is a whole different level and he has bags and bags to prove that he can cut it at prem level - also he can’t play every game so we need cover

He clearly isn’t a bad player - played loads for palace and I always think he looks relatively decent - don’t mind the incoming abuse but I think for a small fee he would be a very decent squad player is he more prem proven than mavididi- yes than Fatawu yes than mcateer yes than daka yes than cannon yes if Fatawu and mav are first choice wingers then reid and ayew are pretty decent back up in my view we need to stop quoting champions league and prem winners - we were a slightly better than average championship side last year - that’s where we are at - right there - we need cover and experience if we are going to stand a chance - 2 year deal - relatively low wages - all ok by me

Absolutely 100% yes - hope this one has legs - if this is where we are going transfer wise we should all be a bit happier

Absolutely no chance we get 45 - that’s just ridiculous- somebody is having a giggle at this one - he is decent enough but not even Chelsea pay that kind of money - if we got 30 and had stol as number 1 and iverson as number 2 it would make very little difference if any to our season

Abuse he gets is criminal- no chance he comes back- was fantastic to us and left like a true professional - unlike plenty of rats - bagged us mega money as well- I would have him back in a heart beat- super defender and at 31 nowhere near over the hill- would be a massive yes from me but we wont pay 30m for him no chance- a loan would be unreal- absolutely walks into our side as the best defender at the club easily btw

Soumare and choudhury can get in the bin at this level - no chance

As if

Pretty much ‘the’ elite source at the minute - I’d say this one is happening then

Than we did yes but defo not their prem team either

Correct

*Bournemouth reserves

Probably the best part of this has to be that they have agreed to back him financially- no way on earth he was ever taking this job without £50m plus on transfers being guaranteed- if he has said yes which it now seems is the case then it’s great news in that regard

That’s the correct question

Really good post - and good insight- bottom line they need to get the right man in and get the players in to go with the style needed - some of current squad will be ok and some won’t be no matter which way we go

Assumption, guess - something like that - could be 6 or 12 I suppose - went for the middle as the exact numbers of points wasn’t the topic

I don’t think he is any miracle worker and agree it was a terrible decision to go to Chelsea however we are a mess - going to start on -9 points and have very little financial ability to improve a squad that was just about good enough in the end to get out of the championship- it isn’t a very appealing job no matter how much we all love our club - he was very solid at Brighton - didn’t score loads but didn’t concede either and only lost 1/3 of the games he took charge of in a very competitive premier league - he definitely laid the foundations for how solid Brighton have been last few years - he did a good job - is he elite and the best of the best definitely not but he is pretty good and definitely the best in the frame - he has bags of premier league experience which cannot be compared to doing ok with West Brom or doing ok in a random foreign league - he fits the bill playing style ish as well which someone like moyes who has better track record probably doesn’t - at this point I’ll be disappointed if we don’t get him - I think they would buy into his way of playing and also he would have a very keen eye on some talented players from random countries - if they can convince him to take it I think he is our best bet
