2023 Summer transfer window - hopes, needs, expectations and rumours.

[ASHTONVILLA]

People keep mentioning Walker-Peters but from what I've seen he's crap.

Been playing at left back most of this season to accommodate Livromento so not been playing in his natural position. Looked pretty good at right back the previous season. Still young too, so should improve with better coaching.

Players from relegated clubs that are any good:

Leicester - Maddison, Barnes, Evans, Teilemans.
Southampton - Walker-Peters, Ward-Prowse, Livromento.
Leeds - Gnonto, Harrison.

Already been linked to Barnes and Ward-Prowse. Would take Walker-Peters as competition for Cash, and think Gnonto will become a very good player. Maddison would be a good signing.

I’d have Barnes from Leicester at the right price. I think Tielemans hasn’t had the magic for too long now and Maddison will think he’s too good for us.

Not too enamoured on any of the Saints.

I’d have Gnonto all day every day, he’s going to be a smashing player if he develops.

No, Liveramento has been injured all season, every time I saw him he was playing right back. Crap was probably unfair but he was extremely 'meh', and certainly not as good as Matty Cash.

I honestly don't see the point in buying players that are not as good as the one's we've got now, unless they're some wonderkid with bags of potential.

Felix? - nah, not for me. Expensive hit-n-miss sort of player.

Really?!? I doubt Madrid would have spent £120m on him if he was hit and miss.  Sure he’s had a couple of injuries and a fall out with Simone, but he’s still only 23 and a potential world beater.  All he needs is a good coach…..and he’s only expensive if we can’t afford him 😁

Was in Marseille about 6 years ago. Didn't seem the best place to wander too far from the main centre to be honest.

Similar to Wellingborough then mate

[Smirker]

If Felix is even slightly possible we must try.

Get Prowsey obviously.

I'd take Gnonto too.

Does make me chuckle when we run down places like Wellingborough, when many of us come from the more rough and ready areas of Birmingham. No comparison, and yes I do know Wellingborough.

I don't think Mrs Desailly would have been living in Toxteh, had her husband signed for that annoying Red club. Anyway, here is where all the footballers live when they sign for Marseille: the select quartier of La Castellane.

Sorry all I keep thinking about was him in extras

Given our dead ball delivery is pretty good wha does JWP offer to improve the squad? Ne trick pony and won’t be cheap. With all these things you have to think of th3 cost which is why exiting Coutinho would really help as he’s too much of a luxury for the output you get on the field.

[Exeter 77]

If Ward-Prowse did sign that golf shot celebration would have to go.

Felix one sounds like a case of his agent pimping him out via the press rather than us showing interest in any way.

I agree but his agent, our mate Mendes, must realise that he is running out of options that can afford him after the PL.

Or, get rolled out every week. I think I could live with it then.

If we are playing in Europe we are going to need more than 4 good midfielders.

Then why would we buy JWP?!
