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

[SoccerHQ]

Someone with pace and a decent shot would help enormously.

Archer?

Loan out Duran and get him back in the squad. We still need a proven final third player on top of that as I think we'll sell Bailey if Ajax show serious interest again like they did last summer.

Archer?

I'd much rather have had him as the bench option than Duran.

There aren't really any excuses for a poor window. It needs to be exciting and precise.

I've seen some dating profiles with that description recently.

Out
Olsen, Young, Chambers, Dendonker, Traore,  Couthino & Sanson. We'll be lucky to get £30m in total.

In
Back up keeper
First choice right back
Young centre half
First choice midfielder
First choice No 10
First choice right forward & a young left forward.
To make the improvement we need that's £200m

Add in Archer, Iroegbunam & Ramsey to the squad. If we get £20m+ for Archer we'll sell, likewise Digne & Bailey.

Bailey absolutely has to be moved on. He really is completely dreadful, a step down from even the likes of El Ghazi and Trez.

I would take Trez over him, at least he worked his nuts off and harassed defenders.

El Ghazi is better too. But we’ll improve on all of them next season.

I don’t think you can put a price on it. Kamara was free so you never know.

But I mainly agree. In terms of names, I’d like Guendouzi for the first-choice midfielder. The rest - I dunno. Some Spaniards?

See post-match thread. Felt like the equivalent of the game.

When I was online dating, I probably was exciting and precise. Now I'm a lot fatter with a prostate the size of a honeydew.

I don’t think it will be that radical and we are not spending 200 mil.
I do not think we will sell Archer without giving him half a season in the match day squad.
I do agree we need RB, a top level  wide player and midfielder.

Personally I don’t have an issue with “Donk” I would keep him tbh

[curiousorange]

Dendoncker seems okay. Every squad has its okay players. If we replaced him with good I'd be happy, but I'm not aching to improve on him like I am with some of our starting XI.

[Risso]

He's an average midfield back up. Nothing against him, but I hope we strengthen suffciently so that the likes of McGinn become the back up and Deconcker moves on.
