Looks like we're continuing to collect CBs. Don't mind the signing but with Vestergaard's contract we have a lot of options there already. Would be ok if some were being offloaded.

We have 5 CBs, none of which fill me with any confidence at PL level.

What are people smoking? £10m for a fairly ordinary CB. Surely better to spend that on Greaves or Edwards. Rodon isn’t going to push on and get better, whereas those two don’t just replicate what we’ve already got. We desperately need pace in the central regardless of how far up Mads sweeps. 
 

This isn’t where we should be looking to focus when we have limited funds.

I have similar reservations on the quality of them too at this level. A high number of average players in this position doesn't seem like a great situation to be in!

Yeah. And you know we won't/can't shift any of Vestegaard, Faes, Coady or Souttar. Nelson is the only one with any kind of development/sale value, and throwing him in would be suicide in the Prem. 

 

More horrendous squad management from our elite DoF.

Did he play under cooper at Swansea? Would make sense but doubt we can fit him in with 5 cbs already on the books without one leaving!

Spot on. And thanks to the pathetic P S Rules, it means we may have to look to sell Nelson.

Cooper and Rodon. These really are the banter years.

 

Pure shite.

Cheer up!!! At least you don’t have to pay £75 to watch him

So as it stands, we have

  • Vestergaard
  • Faes
  • Coady
  • Souttar
  • Nelson
  • Brunt?

Unless one or two go, and they may, no real point in bringing in a CB.

Plan:

If we could get say £3m combined for these two, we should take it.

Bank it before June 30th PSR pure profit.

Then we need a Centre back with a bit of Pace. Leaving us 5 options (even Vestergaard could get some game time, if we deploy a low block with three at the back. Cooper is pragmatic. He mixes up the formation quite frequently).

It seems we are going to keep Vesty. Faes may go. I don't think he is as good hr thinks he is. He is rash and error prone. Coady will stay and his experience and the fact he seems a good egg is a bonus. Souttar.will go if anyone wants him and he wants to go. Nelson looks like a prospect. Brunt, know nothing about him. I doubt he is ready for the Prem. Defence does need strengthening. Doubts over KDH and Wilf so that needs looking at and then upfront we need at least one because Daka is not good enough, Vardy won't be able to play every game and Cannon is a bench player. I would not mind having Justin right wing back and Ricky P right side of a back 3. They could be interchangeable but there are questions marks about their durability. Both decent IMO. Lots to do to get the squad ready.

Fancy selling Nelson and Brunt for a combined £3m is significantly underselling Nelson, and would rather keep him - however, a financial mess means tough choices, and as Nelson features as pure profit then he has much value. (Boo to money talk)

Yes, lets sell a player with high prospects for the sort of fee you see at the bottom of the championship these days, and sign some championship duffer for 3x as much. Solid plan.

Nelson is worth more than £3 million IMO.

Apparently, we need profit, pure 'profit' to satisfy PSR, getting the monies in the bank before June 30th.

The best way to do this is to sell academy products. (I don't want to, but that's what FFP forces clubs to do).

and sub £3m for Ben Nelson is gonna offer about as much satisfaction to PSR as Rudkin going out for a walk in the city centre and picking up every coin he sees. If you're not getting over 10m at a minimum for an academy prospect, then in our situation it's not worth selling.

Great. Sell him for whatever we can get then.
