Summer Transfer Thread and Gustavo Cisneros Type Rumours.

[LukeJames]

I think taking Targett off at HT was that kick up the arse, even though it could of been done 20 minutes earlier.

[ozzjim]

Cash dropped off a bit after his injury after a brilliant start. I think both full backs need to get back to those levels quickly. Konsa played right back with Hause central for the last 2 games of last season didn't he? I think it is more likely Tuanzebe would play right back though surely, Konsa is too good to play there.

[N'ZMAV]

Guilbert still with us?

[sickbeggar]

Well Young didn't help Targett much which is hardly surprising expecting a 36 year old to track back

[ozzjim]

Guilbert still with us?

Good point. Yes, and was excellent in France on loan second half of the season.

[VinnieChase84]

Short term and low fee we really couldn’t get a better DM than Gueye (and he’s available)
If we don’t sign a DM and quick the negligence is astounding. We do want one. Why we’ve not got one yet I don’t know

[mr underhill]

yes couple of hundred million spend in the last few years and still key plasyers short. Unpardonable.

[N'ZMAV]

Gana Gueye wouldn't be bad on a years loan.

[Dante Lavelli]

Gana Gueye wouldn't be bad on a years loan.

He’s also someone you could probably bag on the last day of the window, so there’s also some logic to pursue more permanent targets in the meantime.

[sickbeggar]

Heh, I can just imagine his reaction when he takes a call from us wanting him back. He's probably still on Prozac from the last time

[Chris_Jephcott]

Our midfield yesterday was total cack.

Buendia is a cracking player but can’t do that no10 role that Porcupine did - he’s a winger. We need to use him as such.

We missed Watkins work rate off the ball. Ings was almost as out of it as Wesley was in 19/20.

I would think that we’d be in a better position to play a leading 2 formation with Ings and Watkins upfront, Bailey on the left and Buendia on the Right.

2 holding midfielders - McGinn and Dougie.

Then the 4 defenders. Targett had a stinker yesterday. Sarr really showed him up - without the back tracking and support of Porcupine, I think we’ll probably see Targett getting shown up a few times this season. Is Young a better bet in that position at times?

Oh. And JWP. Might come to nothing, but we are by no means done yet. If he is what we need, I’d just pay the money and have done - £50 million might do it.

I don’t think McGinn can play that holding role, and not sure
Nakamba and Luiz are good enough as a pair.

[edgysatsuma89]

Yeah, McGinn is categorically not a holding midfielder. People debate whether Luiz is, he's not a DM for me. Is he a DM for Brazil? I've never watched him play for them.

[Steve67]

I don't think he's a DM full stop Edgy.  He isn't quick enough or physical enough.  Great player and I'd like to see him further forward.  No way should we be letting him go anywhere.

Oh I agree, and I agree I think he is more of an 8.
