Sunbury Fox Posted 23 July 2018 Share Posted 23 July 2018 We really need to shift some deadwood. Our first team squad is totally bloated now. We had a squad of 20 for Saturday's game, 3 first teamers were injured, Ward wasn't signed in time and 10 internationals had not returned from the World Cup. 34 players!

If the issue is wages we should have excepted the offer and used those freed up to spend on this guy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine this is the case for alot of our players we want off the books. Edited 23 July 2018 by OhYesNdidi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we can't really shift them, maybe Benny and Ulloa, but wait for their contract to run down. Are we really being ****ed by those or is it just the size of the squad?

StevieB Posted 23 July 2018 Share Posted 23 July 2018 I get a horrible feeling were not getting a winger in and keeping hold of Musa, but part of me thinks Musa, Iheanacho, Vardy, Gray, Maddison might not have a bad goal return between them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Prussian Posted 23 July 2018 Share Posted 23 July 2018 Problem with people clinging onto the hope that Musa can perform at left wing is that he's usually performed badly when played there. He does best as a striker, and I'm not sure another striker is what we need at the moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hope is that the 3 behind Vardy would not be tied down to their positions and would each interchange naturally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I'm thinking as i said in a post earlier, if you listen to grays interview he says the gaffers been training me to go Central in no 10 spot. Makes sense as Gray can't cross for toffee but he can break through a defence and drive and Puel likes that i reckon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be fine next summer though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see where the money problem is? We have broken even so far. As far as FFP goes even with the huge squad we have, we will have funds available. It's simply there's a desire to move players on before we bring anymore in which could cause us problems this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SecretPro Posted 23 July 2018 Share Posted 23 July 2018 Worrying to think that being outdone by Brighton shows our true ambition level. For a team supposedly looking to 'Win stuff' I'm pretty concerned to be honest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've just pocketed 60m so our net spend this summer after transfers is -10m. There should be money available for signings. I Io wonder if we're sleepwalking into a relegation fight.

Yes theres funds but theres no space in the wage bill - the mahrez money was spent on perreira, maddison and evans. We were already maxed out hence not making any signings last Jan bar Diabete. Ulloa is on 50k a week and hes our sixth choice striker - we have big problems if we dont ship anymore out. Transfers fees are only one consideration in outgoings - look at our enormous wage gap.

I forgot to mention that the striker situation could clear up considerably in case one or two of Slimani and Ulloa were to leave in the next two weeks. Imagine Vardy, Iheanacho and Musa as striker options... Not too shabby. Provided we play a type of football where we keep it on the ground.

We should be accepting bids for what is absolute deadwood then instead of turning offers away because of what we think we should be getting. I mean **** me, imagine turning down £12m for Musa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
