Scotch Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 I think we need a decent bit of renovating done to this team, even more so if players leave. So this is what I think we need and who I'd go for.... RB - Smith or possibly Zabaleta CB - Gibson or Maguire CM - Adrien Silva or Cairney WInger - Bruma or Patrick Roberts No 10 - Gylfi Sigurdsson (would be my priority) ST - Abraham or Ihneacho For one of each of these players, you're probably talking around £100m-£110m... Leaving the squad I would look to get rid of... Ulloa James Wes or Benny Mahrez Kaputska (Loan) Amartey (Loan) Wasyl Musa So that's maybe about £35m-£40m, meaning our net spend would be about £60m which is not too bad at all... (I'm sure I'll probably take some stick but I'm not too fussed, doesn't look like you can say anything here without someone slating you.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCCFox96 Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 Has irritated me for the last few seasons how little playing time Javier Pastore has had at PSG. Probably beyond us but would be good in that ever illusive number 10 role for us. Can't help but think Hakim Ziyech would also be a good fit and always been a fan of Zlatko Junuzovic - knocking on a bit now but creative and good from set pieces.

Erm, he's been injured for the best part of four months this season, and the best part of half a year the season before that. There's a reason he's not been playing!

RODNEY FERNIO Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 Still think loans from the top European clubs is a short term option .. just because they can't get in Barcas or Reals first team doesn't mean they are bad players ... we are in a position now where we can afford the wages.

matty98 Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 Would like to see us go for Muhamed Besic, had a long time out through injury but if we can get him playing he'd be quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melbourne Fuchs Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 We should keep an eye on Sander Berge, at 19 years old he's apparently done a brilliant job of replacing Ndidi at Genk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxfanazer Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 Not necessarily someone I think we should sign but I read somewhere that Lewis Dunk thinks he can break into the England set up like Michael Keane. Not seen much of him, any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 Still think Alejandro Gomez from Atalanta would be perfect here, maybe in a partnership with Vardy. Hard working and a bit mad. Would like to see us go in for another destroyer with the ability to play a bit too - go back in for Camacho from Malaga or test the waters with Real and a bid for Marcos Llorente (probably no chance, though). I'll be honest and say I don't watch any Portuguese football whatsoever but that Iuri Medeiros lad who's been at Boavista this season has been getting praise in end of season reviews for being direct and having a hand in plenty of goals from the wing. Left-footed, too. Willing to be shot down by anybody who keeps an eye on that league, mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
