What players do we need and who should go?

Postby PeterParker » Sun Feb 23, 2020 11:57 am

A huge, huge, huge summer coming up for us. After this season our team will end a cicle that brought us a shitload of trophies, but normaly, as it happens, lost it's hunger.
With the whole ban and controversy around our club brought by those bent fucks, it will be a long summer with many ups and downs.

That being said, who needs to go and who needs to be bought?

Out: Stones, Bravo (not going to happen), Mendy, Silva, Sane.
In: Mings, Ake, Chillwell, Haaland (not gonna happen), Van De Beek

Now, why Mings and Ake? I think we need to buy some premier proven defenders and those two are decent enough with excellent footgame,
And Chillwell because I don't think we can buy anyone better at this point that is available.

Another issue is Dave Silva. Sadly, there is no way Foden will replace him, so we might see us buying someone. Saw that we were linked with Van de Beek from Ajax. He had an excellent season with Ajax last year.
Also there is the issue if Sane is going.

Rumours of Pep signing another year extention if true we will be in for a marque striker and CB but a lot depends on the UEFA bullshit hanging over us and FFP restrictions .

As I said, I would want two defenders that are decent in the league and that can become really good under Pep.
I think those two are good shouts and will come at a decent price.

The problem is that the world is lacking top class defenders. That is why Maguire was sold that much. The best way to understand this is to look at the italians and see they keep going with Bonucci and Chielini because nothing comes from behind that are at their level.

PeP has categorically stated that he WILL NOT replace DS as he has Foden.

Of course I don't believe a fuckign word he says so DS will probably be replaced.

Pretty sure our scouting system has a few defenders and a potentially top CB on the radar pal , age is always a huge factor with our recruiting . £120 million Sane to the german rags will give us some serious spending power if he goes of course . We also recently had a £360 million investment into the business , will be interesting how that is used and whether it is a buffer whilst this UEFA bollocks is played out ? We definitely need another top drawer striker but not a chance the club will even enter a discussion with snake Riaola (Haaland) .

Unfortunately Ake and/or Mings would cost an arm and a leg depending on who gets relegated. If both clubs stay up they’ll cost probably £50 million each, Mings probably more because he’s English.

Sane leaving will be another issue we have to solve.
Have no idea with what player, hope the fuck not Saha.

What makes you say that about Bernardo? I don't think the club would even entertain the idea.

I agree with you on Rialoa, however we are dealing with snakes all over the shop, Haaland has to be signed at 65 mill euros for me. Even if you give his agent 6.5 he is cheap IMO.

City won’t share the same oxygen as Riaola and it is common knowledge Riaola has caused a lot of the shite that is going on behind the scenes at the swamp . He is doing a great job there leave him to it .

The FFP will affect the second part of the question, who we should go for, but not the first too much, who we need.

There are probably a lot we could change, but I tend to think about 6 in and out is the most you can do without it becoming counterproductive, especially as quite a few players seem to take at least half a season to adapt to Pep’s requirements.

So my 6 out would be Silva, Sane (but only if he wants to go), Angelino (virtually already gone), Stones, Gundo, and another fullback who isn’t Walker. Bravo can go but not a priority.

To be replaced by 2 x FB, 1 x CB, 1 x CM, 1 x goal scorer, plus more use of Fidel and Garcia. One of replacements probably needs to be English to meet the rules if Stones goes.

Tough enough start for him as he’s not been afforded a proper run in the team and when he does get a sniff it’s not always in his proper position. A bit of a head scratcher how we spend so much money on a player and don’t plan on starting him regularly.
