Lovejoy Posted 16 May 2018 Posted 16 May 2018 Not linked to us, and may be destined for a bigger club, but would be an upgrade on Schmeichel. http://www.squawka.com/news/cillessen-wants-to-leave-barcelona/1032863
Devonfox1884 Posted 16 May 2018 Posted 16 May 2018 INS Mawson (£20m) Pereira (£30m) Shelvey (£25m?) Evans (£3m) Elyonoussi (£15m?) Grealish (£30m?) Archer (£4m?) Tierney (£25m?) Matt Phillips (£10m?) Total: £162m OUTS Huth (Free) Hamer (Free) Ulloa (£3m) Musa (£5m) Slimani (£15m) Kingy (£5m) Mahrez (£60m) Wes (Whatever we can get?) Simpson (£3m) Jakupovic (£2m) Mendy (£5m) Fuchs (Free) Gray (£25m) Benny (Whatever we can get?) Total: £123m Net spend: £39m I think this is the kind of overhaul we need. Hopefully a couple of gems can be unearthed from lower leagues too. 1
jayfox26 Posted 16 May 2018 Posted 16 May 2018 (edited) Butland/fabianski, Trippier (if spurs sign a new rb), Sessegnon (never happen but would be willing for us to spend big on him), Evans (cheap and experienced), mawson, Allen, a top number 10 but can't think of any off top of my head. If mahrez goes then obviously we need a replacement and many have mentioned shaquiri who might be a decent option but he seems very inconsistent to me. Would all depend on how much stoke want for him. Still think we need a big option up front as well but Puel doesn't seem to go for this. Basically we need 6 or 7 players if we are to improve on this season. Edited 16 May 2018 by jayfox26
Boland Posted 16 May 2018 Posted 16 May 2018 Vydra, Shaqiri and Evans for £23m would be very decent if you believe what the papers say on their release clauses. Free up a lot of money to spend on other positions while giving us back up to Vardy and two starters.
Boland Posted 16 May 2018 Posted 16 May 2018 Although if we have the money I'd go for Mawson over Evans any day

I don’t think Okazaki will be sold so we’ll have Vardy, iheanacho, Okazaki and probably Barnes or a new number 10. I'd say we could do with him if we sold Okazaki as well, then we have iheanacho and vydra who can play the no.9/10 role if in cup games or vardy is injured

I have long been an advocate of the Champ Manager 01/02 method of pre season which is to release all of one's best players on free transfers on a whim and then sign a load of 16 year old Swedes with 19 at jumping.

Scotch Posted 16 May 2018 Posted 16 May 2018 Would be delighted if we went into the new season looking something like.... GK: Kasper Foster (10m?) RB: Pereira (25m?) Simpson LB: Chilwell Tierney (25m?) CB: Maguire Evans (3m?) Dragovic (10m?) Mawson/Dunk (20m?) CM: Iborra Silva Choudhury Ndidi Fellaini (free) WINGERS: Gray Diabate Albrighton Shaqiri (15m?) Roberts (part xchange) NO10: Okazaki Ihneacho NO9: Vardy Sturridge (free) Spent £108m Get what we can for...... Hamer (free) Huth (free) Fuchs (free) Morgan (£3m?) Amartey (£5m?) Mendy (£5m?) King (£4m?) Kaputska (£5m) James (£2m) Musa (£7m) Ulloa (£3m) Slimani (£13m) Mahrez (£60m and Roberts) Brought in. £107m Net spend..... £1m I've tried to keep the signings somewhat realistic in terms of personal and price (Sturridge is a stretch,I realise) And I've tried to be realistic in the price we could get. I realise this is NOT going to happen but this would be my perfect window....
Jimmy Posted 16 May 2018 Posted 16 May 2018 Foster is staying at WBA and if he does leave it'll be to a club where he's number 1 and we need to replace Kasper IMO and no Jakupovic in your list of outs
knitro Posted 16 May 2018 Posted 16 May 2018 I just think these ambitious squad shake ups of 7-8 guys going out, 7-8 coming in are FM fantasy and not going to remotely happen. I expect 3-4 in max, 5-6 out. 1

I expect 3-4 in max, 5-6 out. You could be right but I hope you're wrong. If that where the case. We would prob finish around 9th, just like this season.

I expect 3-4 in max, 5-6 out. Well we will probably have at least 6 out with Huth, Hamer, Benalouane, King, Ulloa and Musa (plus Slimani if he leaves, which looks likely), next season we will definitely be losing Okazaki, Simpson, Morgan and Fuchs as well (plus Benalouane if he's still here, which does not looks remotely likely), so cashing in on any of them is a possibility. Don't think we'll have loads of incoming. Can see a GK (maybe), RB (definitely), CB (definitely), RM (definitely) and striker (likely) coming in. Edited 16 May 2018 by Beechey

Dan Posted 17 May 2018 Posted 17 May 2018 Florin Andone. He's your Okazaki upgrade. Available for about £5mil as well.

LCCFox96 Posted 17 May 2018 Posted 17 May 2018 I know Southampton staved off relegation, largely down to that massive 0-1 away win at Swansea, but I'd be sorely tempted to make an approach for Ryan Bertrand. Think he's a really classy player. From the player's perspective, having had an okay season in a struggling side and missing the cut for the World Cup, he could be open to a move up the table. There are a couple clubs, such as ourselves, who would be the next rung up the ladder. He'd likely have some interest from above us as well but guaranteed first team football and pushing for Europe in a squad amongst a number of current England internationals might tempt him.
