STUHILL Posted 10 July 2019 Share Posted 10 July 2019 Gray, and Barnes especially, still have promising futures but as others have said, we can't rely on them this season to consistently deliver top performances week in week out, which is what will be needed to break the top 6. We need another winger and a proven one too, who regularly scores goals and will be one of the first names on the team sheet each week. Hopefully the rumours are true and we are indeed looking at wingers in the £30-50m bracket. I think we are this kinda of signing away, from being a scarily good team next season!

Clarkey123 Posted 10 July 2019 Share Posted 10 July 2019 Personally I’d stick with Barnes as the preferred option out of him and gray and then we have Perez and albrighton competing for the right flank. If it’s not looking great by January try and sign a quality wideman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCCFox96 Posted 10 July 2019 Share Posted 10 July 2019 If we are going all in for another big money signing as a winger then I'd really prefer that it was someone who has already had a season or two in bigger division (e.g. Spain/Germany) and performed to a high level there. Someone in the 22-25/6 age bracket. With Barnes, and to a lesser extent Gray, we already have promising younger wingers alongside Perez and Albrighton. Realise that will come with a higher price tag and may be dependant on Maguire or the likes of Slimani/Silva/King going but having some who is more likely than not to command an immediate starting spot and make an instant impact on the team could be crucial to matching our ambitions this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky will quite possibly be sold next Summer for a huge fee (If he carries on as he did last season), then JJ takes over, so Ricky needs to stay as RB to preserve his inate value. (I know that was naughty, but whatever) We need a new right sided, left footed attacker to cut in and bag some goals and I do not believe that was the purpose of bring Perez in. I don’t believe Pérez was brought in for this either. Pérez was brought in as very good utility man, someone who can play anywhere in the 3 behind Vards & also be used as an option alongside Vards. The comments BR made regarding wanting a winger who can cut in, for me that’s not Pérez therefore I think we will break the bank again for some serious talent out wide. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My realistic pick would be Bailey. He's got excellent ability at cutting inside and a wicked strike on him. I also get the feeling he'd really gel with the existing squad. Not just because he knows Wilf but he just has that 'Leicester player' vibe about him. He's probably just about attainable for us too. Ziyech or Neres would be out of this world good and I'd be adding Rudkin to my Christmas card list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusko187 Posted 10 July 2019 Share Posted 10 July 2019 Ship out Gray and Ghezzal, keep Albrighton and Barnes. Would like another 2 wingers (I'm greedy) but 100% if we want to kick on we need that top draw winger. Gray, has always been on the cusp of being a decent player, but he's far too inconsistent and nowhere near as clinical. Often lacking poor judgement and decision making in the final third. Ghezzal, he comes in for a lot of stick, sometimes unfairly but I just think he's a squad player that we didn't need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perez has the ability to play anywhere in the forward line and he does that to a high standard, consistently turning out goals and energetic performances. He saves us from those situations where we play Gray as a lone striker or use one of the wingers at CAM as that didn't work well. Another addition, as an elite out-and-out right winger on top of that new found flexibility would be just the ticket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARM1968 Posted 10 July 2019 Share Posted 10 July 2019 I would say that we probably do need one, yes. However I cannot see us making that purchase unless or until we sell Maguire - and I’m not entirely certain that we will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first thoughts prefer Robert Skov, purely because of the kids technical ability however having watched both videos it’s clear that Andreas Skov’s are more from open play rather than set pieces. Fvck it get both in & ship out Gray & Ghezzal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
