i simply stated we don’t have enough options upfront and some competition would be healthy. If Maupay picks up an injury and Welbeck does Danny Welbeck who exactly will play upfront
Personally I think that’s a fair enough question. We have played well this season at times no doubt and also had some luck, another season and those last minute equalisers don’t come and we are back to where ever on the 20pt mark. It just doesn’t make sense why the elephant in the room is being ignored window after window.
I think you will find I was trying to be funny

Yes and true, but the figure was there for all to see.
On reflection, I should have said £50 million for greater comic effect and also would have been a justifiable dig at my deluded detractors

It's been confirmed today that the transfer window will slam open on Friday, June 10, and will slam shut at 11pm on Thursday, September 1. Apologies if fixtures but couldn't see it elsewhere on here...

Is that longer than usual? Seems like it. Either way, plenty of time to not sign a striker, or anyone capable of running faster than an asthmatic tortoise.

The August transfer window opening in June you say . . . Goodness gracious me.
The likes of Bissouma, Trossard et al then, could well be playing their last few games in the stripes.

And I for one don't expect any new additions this summer for the first time given the £120m loss over the previous 2 years.
Hopefully Undav and a few of the players loaned out will freshen things up for next season.

For the first time the opening of the transfer window will have zero interest for me.
I do not expect any significant incomings, even players to be loaned out to Belgium, Stoke, Blackburn and other far-flung places.
I expect significant out-goings, more than people realise.

For the very reasons you state, I think this will be an extremely interesting transfer window!

This transfer window will definitely be a significant one. Bissouma will almost certainly be sold, and there's a good chance that one or two of the players with only one more year will go as well meaning that there will be money to spend.
I'd be very surprised if the club haven't already lined up a replacement for Bissouma and a left sided centre back to replace Burn. I wonder if the latter could be Siebe Van der Heyden, USG's 23 year old left-footed centre back who has just been given his first cap on the Belgium national team.

I wouldn't be surprised if there are no major incomings at all (apart from importing the entire USG team, of course
).

We already have a replacement for Bissouma in Caicedo, an equadorian International. We also have the returning loanees, I expect several to step up to the plate.
Nice to read a sensible post. Has anyone read the accounts?

I would like to see a better Welbeck type coming in, as well as Undav arriving. Other than that we could see the squad improved by the likes of Khadra, Van Hecke, Mitoma, Caicedo, Clarke, Kozlowski, Ostigard, Zeqiri, and Sima.
I'd also like to see Alzate and Sarmiento given more game time. With that amount of young talent coming through there may not be much need to spend on big transfer fees. Maybe there's argument for a Prem ready Gross/March upgrade in terms of their attacking threat from midfield.

Not a club apologist but's great the we possibly have Caicado, Mitoma, Khadra, Van Hecke and Ostigard to come in for nothing (other than the original fees). What would that little lot cost in fees if purchased on current form? £100M?

I can see Van Hecke, Caicedo and maybe Mitoma in next year's squad, but I think that that total valuation is a bit optimistic given that none have played a single minute in the Premier League.
