    Genuine question- if we are nine points adrift next Christmas, does he get the winter window to try to change things? Or do we just settle for 2nd place until things get better?

    That's a rather pessimistic view but a valid one. Only time will tell.

    Folk say this but that is what you're going to pay for a 20yr old prospect with a handful of caps already for the 10th ranked team in the world.

    He isn't over priced.

     

     

    I am not saying that he is overpriced but 5M is a hefty chunk of this summers budget. If Bayern will take 1.25M a year over 4 years then it's a whole different story.

    Hate the ‘will be like a new signing’ chat, but Lawrence actually will.

    Think we’ll try and move Hagi on. Looks absolutely done.

    No reasonable offer for Hagi will be refused. I just doubt that we will get one this summer.

  4. If Lawrence and Hagi have a good pre season then that's 2 decent additions to the squad at no extra cost.

    I don't think that Davies is going to make it with us so another central defender will be required. Plus a keeper. A solid defense is a must for next season.

    I hope that both Kent and Morelos leave this summer which is where the bulk of the budget will go. Goalscorers are never cheap and we need two.

  5. Nobody can dispute that we need a new goalkeeper. Don't know anything about Butland but I would be wary of spending a large sum on him. It was only a few years ago that scum spent 5M on a Greek goalkeeper who was totally useless.

    We have to be sensible with our spending.

  6. I have argued against the split for years. Makes a nonsense of teams playing the same number of home and away matches. The 14 team league with a 6/8 split at least addresses that inequality.

    My personal preference is 18 teams playing each other home and away.

    Doubt there’s many players playing for either side who we could even afford.

    Probably Roma players would be out of our price range but we might be able to get a Dutch player. Can't see any other reason for Beale to be in Rome today.
