Two Emis and two Martinezes.

As long as we don't end up with Roberto.

He sounds good, too. More fancy signings, please.

Lovre Kalinic probably sounded fancy at one point.

In reply to Hookey and Paule..
Nothing in the Portuguese press other than reporting on what's been written in the English press.

When we were treading, or, more often, drowning in, water under a succession of has been, never were and outright chancer "managers", I'd have probably got excited if Lee Cattermole or Kemar Roofe had flashed a bit of ankle in our direction.

We've signed Coutinho, now, though. I've come to expect a higher calibre of fanciness.

Loftus-Cheek is not a bad player at all. Not sure where he would fit in though.
Played well at CP 2-3 years' ago; looked awful at Fulham on loan and has had a mixed season last time out.
I'm hoping his boat has sailed; don't see what he'd add to our squad.

There is definitely a player in Loftus-Cheek but he needs to go somewhere he’ll play week in week out to prove it like Barkley, both massive earners without having done a lot to earn it….hopefully we are past the stage of testing players out for others though.

Left back - wouldn’t be against that being a loan deal to be deputy for Digne if it allows Chrisene out on loan IF Gerrard and co believe Chrisene can step up 23/24 season.

MF - big, athletic and good ball player who chips in with a few goals…plenty of those around aren’t there :-)

We still seem to be being linked with central defenders a lot. Gomez, Bassey, Romagnoli, and Collins all linked since we bought Carlos.

Is it possible Mings is unsettled, or doesn't want to spend any time on the bench? Can't see us buying another central defender without one going anway.


Maybe we can’t risk it with Konsa being out for sometime (isn’t he?)

Carlos, Mings, Konsa, Hause, Chambers is a lot of central defenders even with one injured. I do think Hause will go, but if we bring in another then you think Mings or Konsa are on the way out.

Hause has just had a knee operation too

Ruben Loftus Cheek then? I’d say he’s all of those things, if only he could stop fit.

I’m sure our Argentinian contingent could have a word. Not sure what he’s been like at  Athletico but as far as I know he’s a midfield all rounder who was highly regarded at Udinese and plays most games for Argentina.

RLC ? For flecks sake.
A half decent player whose reputation far outweighs what he’s actually done.
