Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
Scamacca and “main striking threat” 🙂. The guy was literally the worst PL striker on our books last season. I still believe if given 900+ minutes there is every chance Mubama at least matches his output. I worded that wrong really. I meant more "main striking option" as he was first choic...

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
Scamacca was never our main an attacking threat and Lanzini was offering nothing at the end. JWP has also added a new dimension we never had with Rice in the team. I agree. The issue is the depth almost more than the quality. Last year we had a midfield of Rice, Soucek, Paqueta. Reserves were Downe...

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
Has he not? I assumed he'd been in Brazil but was simply unsuccessful in getting anyone signed. If I was to veer into conspiracy theories I'd suggest it was to line up some signings for January when we get some money from potentially selling Paqueta to Man City post betting investigations and we do...

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
I think we've *potentially* had a good window. But we have to face facts that we've lost a proven PL performer in Rice, an established squad member in Lanzini and our main striking threat in Scamacca. We've brought in some gambles. Other than JWP all our signings are utterly unproven in the PL. If t...

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
I know I keep banging on about the overseas players thing, but we only have room for one more at the moment as we have 16 of the 17 overseas spots filled (Fab, Areola, Coufal, Emerson, Kehrer, Aguerd, Ogbonna, Zouma, Mavropanos, Soucek, Alvarez, Paqueta, Fornals, Benrahma, Cornet, Kudus). So any mor...

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
Always goes over - have to wait for blood tests and stuff. I reckon he'll be announced on Monday all being well. We'll do this fast (by our standards)!RockyMtnHammer wrote: ↑Sat Aug 26, 2023 5:04 pm Is Kudus having his medical today? Is that meant to get wrapped up today?

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
If Kudus signs then we can only have one more overseas player. I imagine that's why someone like Maatsen appeals as he is homegrown. I'm sure we've earmarked the last overseas spot for the striker role so anyone else has to be homegrown (or we sell another overseas player maybe).

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
If we sign a non-homegrown striker then we're maxed out on them. Any other signings would have to be homegrown (and someone would have to be left out of the 25 - assume Coventry would be first casualty).

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
Just read on twitter that ghana didn't qualify for AFCON great news Algeria and Morocco definitely in so that's 2 players down (3 in the unlikely event of En Nesyri). Ghana just need a draw in their last game to qualify. And they're at home to Central African Republic so you'd fancy them to do that!

In the world cup he played 70 mins in 1 game before being subbed (after having a mare) and was an unused sub in their other 2 games.ageing hammer wrote: ↑Wed Aug 23, 2023 8:19 pm Kehrer is Germany's regular right back, Johnson would not get a ball boys spot for them

Assuming this deal is done where do we think he plays? LW in place of Benrahma? Up front?

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
We could lose 4 players if Cornet gets back in the national side. (With Aguerd, Benrahma and En Nesyri if he signed).

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
Indeed. It even takes special players a season in the PL to get up to speed. Just ask Paqueta. Can't be giving Germany's RB away when he's only been with us 5 minutes. He's not Germany's RB. He's a sub at best. Germany currently ranked 15th by FIFA - the worst they've been for years. 2 places below...
