Aluko is the one actually making the bench instead of Kristiansen. With Thomas and Aluko we are ok. Faes can also cover at left back if he stays.

It's probably the perfect club for him, Feyenoord fans would have very high expectations and Vardy is a bit of a streaky, confidence player so I could see things going wrong for him there. A club like Cremonese where strikers are expected to score 5-7 goals a season without the fans turning on them will be perfect for him. He's always been someone who values the support of the fans.

I think you just have to accept we are one of the worst run clubs in football and not think about it too much.

Hi Mrs Faes What is the reason your son hasnt left yet? Is Rudkin asking for too much or is there no one interested? Hopefully for both our sakes he can find a suitable club to move to. Best wishes. P.s. reminder to limit Wout's time scrolling tik tok, he needs to be able to concentrate the full 90 minutes.

Winks is a luxury midfielder that not many want or can afford. It will have been quite a humbling summer for Winks with his agent looking around and struggling to find suitors. If he is going to go he will need to drop his wage demands significantly becauee he's not getting half of what he is paid here anywhere else.

He's our best centre mid but that's a very low bar. We cant lose him on a free and we need to get his wages off the books. Selling him and prioritising a new centre mid over any other position should be the priority. On a side note imagine if he ends up playing for AC Milan, from Gattuso, Seedorf and Pirlo to Soumare. What an obscene drop off.

Hopefully this allows us to sell Daka to the Saudi league.

Ideal replacement for El Khannouss would be Titraoui. Unreal player and could likely get him for £5-7mil.

I just dont see the point in the way we have managed him. Just a complete absence of trust in him from our leadership. We gave Cordova Reid 744 PL minutes but Alves cant get gametime for us in the championship. Even after Dewsbury Hall's succesful Luton loan he needed Soumare to flop to get a chance. It feels like Alves will always be fighting against a wave of incoming players to make it here, most of which won't even be any good. Same with the rest of the academy.

Cannon, Winks, Doyle, Casadei didn't really work out for us. Yes Winks on his Premier League wages who shat the bed at PL level was not a good transfer. Cannon also not a good transfer just because Sheffield United saved us by overpaying further on him. We got lucky.

If we get promoted he's still going to struggle for gametime even if he has a good loan in league one.

Now please spend the money wisely rather than have a repeat of last year.

He plays deeper for Wales i think

Rather have him coming off the bench for us than Silko Thomas if im being honest.

Im not saying compete for the same players as we would probably lose out but just look in the same direction as Feyenoord are looking. Although now I've looked at it they've signed 2 Portuguese league rejects, 2 upcoming talents from the Belgian league, 1 championship defender and mostly other talents from Eredivisie so maybe not as exotic as I expected. The players from the Portuguese league in particular look similar to our transfer strategy of paying more once they've failed elsewhere.

I know Feyenoord is a champions league level club and we are a championship level club but we have a similar level of spending power to them and recently have been able to attract a similar level of talent to them. There's no reason we should be buying up their failed transfers, if we were competently ran we would be shopping in the same market as them.

Kristiansen has been shockingly bad for us, let's not stick with a busted flush because he played in a decent Bologna side who didn't even want to buy him.

We're missing footballing ability, not leaders. We've been trying to buy leadership for a while and it's not worked out.

What happened to Josh King? No longer with us or injured, i thought with a couple good loans he would have an outside chance of making it here.

Much rather have Monga than Nguhoma. Monga is younger and is more technically gifted.

Us, Southampton, Ipswich, Sheffield United, Coventry. Who's the 6th?

No but if you bring in Solomon then you also have Mavididi rotating with Fatawu as well. I think Monga rotating and covering with both wings is the goldilocks spot for him, another winger ahead of him and he starts struggling for starts and opportunities off the bench most weeks. Maybe he get 800-900 minutes playing that way but I think 1500 is what we should be aiming for

If that was Ayew he holds onto the ball too long or takes the shot himself. Page making the right run to pick up the ball and making the right decision to lay it off to Fatawu shouldn't be taken for granted. Good decision making is not something all our players have and is generally underrated because it doesnt look flashy. In a team full of poor decision makers you cant take an action that actually led to a goal for granted.

If we can sell Winks and get this guy in it looks like it would be great business. Would prefer someone younger but it looks like a transfer that improves us on the cheap so cant complain.

We already have Mavididi for rotation. Solomon coming in makes Monga our 3rd choice left wing and 2nd right wing which in my opinion is too far away from the first XI. Think of how often Akgun played for us and that's Monga's role if we bring in a new winger, it's not enough. There's also Solomon's high wages and injury risk to factor in, I just dont think it's the right choice.
