We would be mad to move Ayew on. 13:34 - May 17 with 32082 views | Sheffieldjack | There are many news outlets indicating that whether or not we keep Andre Ayew next season is down to Huw Jenkins. I think it would be madness to move our top scorer on. Surely a better option would be to keep him for at least one more season and perhaps bring in his brother, Jordan, as a further attacking option! | | | | |

We would be mad to move Ayew on. on 07:10 - May 23 by dobjack2 | Not a lot. The key is getting in players that fit our style of play and improve the team and not just getting in players however much they cost for the sake of getting in players. Ranieri's tactics got the best out of the squad that he had and the players played to his game plan. Would Morgan and Simpson fit into our tactics? |
Sheffield jack said we don't want championship cast offer the point I'm making is that's exactly what those two were, and I fully agree the players need to fit the system, it will be interesting to see who Guidolin brings in | |

We agree. However it will surely be our famed recruitment team that will be responsible for bringing players in with guidolin saying what position and the type of player to get. | | | |

Let's use Fer and Hoilett as examples of the issue. If they sign for us they will come from a mid-table Championship club who want to offload their big wage earners. If you look at what QPR fans think (which is by no means infallible) they would be glad to see the back of both of them! If FG thinks he can improve and develop Fer and he fits into the system that FG wants to use next season - then no problem. But Hoilett who has shown no form for quite a while now is also being touted as a winger we could bring in. But is he a better option than Ayew, Montero, Barrow or Routeledge? Or are we only considering him because we can get a paltry £15 for Ayew and replace him with someone who will come in on a free transfer? | | | |

I gave you 2 examples, Simpson from QPR and Morgan from Forest, don't write people off because they come from mid table championship clubs, perhaps Guidolin can do a bit of a Ranieri | |

I've got no issue with Hoilett coming in if Guidolon thinks he can get something out of him but then that would mean the end of one of the other fringe players like emnes. | | | |

We'll bring in high calibrate players and squad players, some of them a gamble. Swansea City have done this for years. Sinclair was a journeyman who had done nothing before or nothing since, since joining Swans Mark Gower, Leon Britton, Danny Graham... Shall I go on? We can't afford 25 first team players in our squad | |

Every team without a player on that list is probably shopping for a new striker for next season. | | | |

We keep going around in circles here, yes he has scored goals but he's not a perfect fit in the team, I'd have Bony back Siggy behind and Redmond and Barrow wide, and the thing is about this thread there are still more saying they wouldn't be upset if left, than stayed, but it's all about opinions and I respect yours | |

Yes, and I respect yours too. I guess what I'm trying to argue for is for the club to show some ambition and intent so that even if the preferred strike force would be Bony - Montero - Siggy - Barrow (which would scare some opposition defenders next season) we keep Ayew because he can play as back up for either Bony or Siggy, and in an emergency even for Barrow. We would also have the option to throw him on as an extra free roaming forward if we needed a goal late in a game. | | | |

We've got a nearly-new Paloschi sitting in the cupboard for that job. | | | |

I can see Paloschi as back up for a main striker like Bony (if by some magic we could get him back). I can't really see him as back up for any of the other positions, though. [Post edited 24 May 2016 12:26]

Sell ayew for £15 million, pay him the £5million+ still owed to him for signing on fee, then sign bony for £20million? According to reports Redmond is available for £10million. So that's £30 million, and no new full backs in sight? Dreamland | | | |

So we go over budget AND keep Ayew? 1: Ayew wouldn't be happy 2: we'd be running at a loss 3: we are not QPR or Leeds | |

So what about the money City still owe us for Bony? We'd get him for closer to 10 million, Eder just gone for 4 million, Ayew and Gomis off the wage bill I'd be happy | |

I'd imagine the money still owed for Bony is accounted for so we'd still be spending that £10million if you get me. I hope you're right, but when we sold bony for nearly £30 million we only invested about £8million on Eder and tabanou and that included our summer transfer budget so I'm not holding out too much hope of spending what we get in | | | |
