King won't be with us next season. Would have likely signed if we had stayed up but wants to remain in the Prem. | |

He'll have a job finding a team poor enough to accomodate him with a regular starting spot. Harsh I know, but true. Would have been a decent player for us in the Championship. | | | |

He will decide on how he will set up tactically and should be given time to organise the personnel and influence what type of player comes in. It is always difficult (impossible) to keep players who can get and want a move to a higher standard of football but peculation about the likes of Bartley and McBurnie should not be happening IMO, both are Championship standard players and in contract. | |

Great insight,although,It's impossible we'll be able to keep both Andre and Bony based on their colossal wages for a Championship club. I'd say for a CB,we could try to go for Huth or Klavan (Huth available for free,Klavan probably not needed at Liverpool since Van Dijk joined them) for a DMF,we could perhaps go for Mo Diame? for a playmaker (AMF/winger),Harry Wilson is a great shout,although Jarrod Bowen and Bobby Reid come close,Reid is available for free this summer. imo we need a new CF as Bony or A.Ayew (or both) will be leaving ..I'm thinking about either getting a loan deal for someone like Mitrovic (although not likely at all as Fulham will probably snap him) or perhaps Ings/Calvert-Lewin or Niasse...or we can go for that Ispwich guy Waghorn,had a superb season,probably affordable.

Vydra would be ideal for the right price. Devastating in the championship, but not quite up to prem level. Bit like Scott Sinclair. | | | |

But of course instead of going after him,we're gonna sell Mcburnie,send Andre on loan and pay most of his wages without getting a fee. and keep Bony who'll play about 5 games and score 1 goal then get sidelined with injury while paying his entire 5 m a year salary+medical bills,leading the club into further financial trouble without a return..and maybe..just maybe sign some unwanted academy player from some "big club"..oh right we already signed Dhanda...

It'd be better if he leaves then,assuming we've signed a better player..because I simply don't trust him as a starter,not even at this level. Not to forget he seems to be too injury prone..we can't have a starter week in/week out in such conditions. | |

Played 45 games for Leeds, beloved by their fans. We'll struggle to find a surer bet in this division for the money we have available. He's the right age, the right level of experience, and he's under contract. Other areas of the first 11 are in far more desperate need of investment than centreback (once the inevitable exits take place). | | | |

Yeah but you're not looking at him and thinking "I wish we could play him as a winger" are you? He's barely creative enough for a modern fullback. | | | |

Re: Andre and Bony my thoughts are... Bony. Who will want to take Bony off our hands with the injury he has just had? I can only see any possible deal being dependent on; - us subsidising the move (very bad for us) or - him proving his fitness for us in pre-season and the first handful of games (if he does that he could be exactly who we need in the Championship to both score goals and be that target man we know he can be for the young players who would benefit from playing off him). Ayew. Who would want to sign him after his performance since January unless; - We practically give a £20m experienced, adaptable, International footballer away. Now I'm not saying that won't happen, it could well happen...might even be necessary, depending on other transfer activity...but right now I think he could be persuaded to stay and play with his brother (and I think we could afford the wages for a season if we shift on the right people...I forgot to include Baston, Sanches, Abraham, Ki, Routledge, Rangel and Leon's wages being shorn from the squad on my list as well as Fabianski, Fernandez, Mawson, Amat, and Mesa). Andre Ayew should shine in the Championship I reckon. CB: I like your thinking DM: Possibly, need to have a think about that one over the summer. AM: I haven't seen enough of Bobby Reid to judge. I like Jarrod Bowen though and I fancy that Harry Wilson has something a bit special...only seen him a few times as well but he has seriously impressed me. CF: It does depend on who leaves. If a slot was freed up I would favour a loan deal I reckon...either an exciting youngster or someone like Ings/Mitrovic/Niasse for a season would be good. LB: I like Bryan Oviedo (always have) who has just gone down to L1 with Sunderland. He is too good to play in L1 | |
