Summer transfer window thread (What ins and outs do you want to see?)

[palerider]

I think the squad only appears to be as small as it does because of the continual use of the same fifteen players. Replacing the dirty half-dozen of deadwooders* with players that can hold their own in times of need, or (heaven forbid) offer an alternative quality, shouldn't be as hard as DM is making it appear to be. One or two loanees with an option to buy (as well) might be the order of the day.

*DHDD
Vlasic
Kral
Yarmolenko
Fredericks
Masuaku
Noble

That’s part of the problem aint it Oz. 2 of who he brought in last window barely got a game.

One of the few games I went to was against Leeds in the cup. Vlasic was M.O.M. for me. Other than that he's been two-bob. Which leads me to believe it wasn't actually Vlasic that played that day but somebody like Juan Mata who couldn't get a game for Manure and in one of those mask jobbies from Mission Impossible.

It is, and it’s up to Moyes to change that. Remains to be seen if he will, but in Dave I trust...

...ish.

A left winger is high on David Moyes shopping list and these are on the clubs shortlist...

Sofiane Diop of Monaco

Mikkel Damsgaard of Sampdoria

Amine Gouiri of Nice

Ricardo Horta of Braga

Lewis-Potter from 'Ull is the man they're after. About 18m, which would probably be our biggest signing of the summer if it happens.

Padded out with cheapos, freebies and loanees of course.

Fucking hell the lad looks a proper talent!

With Bowen on the right flank, this one on the left and Morelos upfront! Not bad that eh!

I hope so mate,but has Pale says,I wouldn't hold your breath.

If we could bring in 3 or 4 a d get rid of a bit of dead wood,we could have a really decent side,that may just take us a step further ahead of where we are now.

If we’re bringing in to replace the deadwood we’ll still have that small squad we keep moaning about

Spot on Jay .

We already have one of the smallest squads in the league.
Before we get rid of the dead wood we have to replace those who are leaving or out of contract, Areola, Kral will be returning to their mother clubs, Yarmolenko, Frederick's, Ogbonna, Flappy and David Martin all out of contract, and Noble retiring, that depending on renewing any contracts for the above ( I would stick with Flappy and Ogbonna) that reduces our already thin squad by 8 players...

Then there is the small problem of Arthur who really needs to be moved out.

There is also the problem of other teams targeting our better players such as Rice and Bowen who could well be tempted to move on, if rumours are correct, then Soucek is also wanted by various clubs.

Now....what about the players who want more playing time, Randolph has only played 5 PL games in 3 years....Diop surely should be playing more .....even Vlasic ...these 3 could also force a move to get playing time elsewhere....I also worry about Johnson who was unable to agree a new contract so the club activated their extension clause that has left Johnson really pissed off........and don't get me started on the other youngsters..

I have a horrible feeling that our squad could be decimated this summer and will need a huge investment just to replace those leaving, and that does not include upgrading the players that are staying such as Antonio and Cresswell.

The board and the manager have a massive task this window, the squad needs to be replenished to a minimum of 26 and without doubt upgrading on what we have already got. A huge investment is required.

Are dithering Dave and the tightfisted board going to step up this window.... probably not

[Pipe smurf]

HULL have become our feeder club

Leeds had a few kids playing that day if I’m not mistaken. Possibly coulda helped Vlasic look good. The squad seem to think he’s a player though so doubt he’ll be moved on. Maybe just needs more frequent game time, more time to gel or to be played in his more familiar role. Either that or more masks

The last paragraph sums it up for me Andy.
If we should replicate our league position next season then that'll be just dandy for them, but they'll be just as tight in the windows as ever.
I never expect anything from these cunts and invariably I'm never disappointed.

Yep.

I think loaning good players who aren't in another team's squad is the way forward.

N'Golo Kante in a Vlasic mask......Although a little stirring in the old grey matter suggests that may be a tad flawed.

How dare you sir !

If it wasn't for them we'd be playing East Wittering Academicals in the West Sussex Amputee League Division 3, and fighting relegation to boot, excuse the pun, at the weekend, not Pep's galacticos.

Bigger picture n'all that.......
