Not a fan of this strategy.

Dont see why as long as the club are confident in Palmer

 

[argyle]

So it's Tolmie vs Sam Lee.

I'm hoping Tolmie's version is correct.

 

[Tevez City]

50 or he stay

 

[blueparrot]

Me either, it's a dumb move to have so many with one year left but here we are. Not getting good money now would be absolutely stupid.

We dont do dumb though so whatever we do will be thought out

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Not replacing two wingers leaving would be criminal and terrible planning

It’s not the numbers that concern me - in Palmer, Mahrez, Bernie, Grealish & Foden we’ve got plenty of cover - but rather the skill sets we’d be losing. Sterling and Jesus are arguably our quickest and most tenacious ‘forwards’ and Jesus in particular is probably the best ‘defensive’ striker in the league. And despite finishing ostensibly being a weak point, they both score a lot of goals. There’s little prospect of our adopting a different MO next season, in terms of the way we play, if we’re going into it with next to no pace in the attacking positions - Haaland and Foden duly excluded.

You know deep down I'm right, bring back Leroy!

On one condition mate.He was a lazy bastard but as for his technical ability and speed he was superb.

Who has the best track record?

If TH says that we have targets if we lose Sterling and Bernardo then that is what i believe.

 

[Agueroooo9320]

Pep clearly doesn't think it's an issue. I can't remember the last time I saw Sterling use any of his pace tbh. That's not how we play.
Don't underestimate how fast Foden and Haaland are also.

nonsense that is exactly how we play remember jesus also played on the rw. doubt pep is happy. squad building is on tixi and kaldoon

Both of them are saying we will not replace him !

No it's not and spell their names properly ffs.

 

[decmancity]

Creating space to cross to Gundo to help win us the league against Villa ?

Yeah. No other winger in world football could have done that....

I am talking about actually taking the ball and running at speed with it like Foden does.

Anyway, getting off topic. Irrelevant conversation anyway when it looks like he's off.

 

[Agueroooo9320]

Aston Villa to help us win the league.

also last day of the season to beat his man did people forget?

 

[Agueroooo9320]

oh come of chatting shit. of course sterling and jesus gives us someting on the right wing with their pace that was crcial in many matches and we will lose that if we don't replace two fast right wingers that we are losing

 

[oakiecokie]

Didn’t know this abit worrying.

Yes but out of these it looks like four will be leaving anyway and as for Foden and Rodri new contracts will be done and dusted before this coming season kicks on.Walker will probably stay and we know about Gundo who will be leaving next year.Not certain about Mahrez but I assume he`ll be getting a new contract, so overall I`m not too bothered.

 

[Ajm1985]

Palmer is more like Mahrez than Jesus or Sterling and it's a lot to expect of him. Mahrez is probably going after his contract ends, so we'd just be in this position after that. Lot of experience to lose as well

Who said we wont ... Pep ???

That really is a shit argument, I just hope we get a decent fee for him.

Never said they didn't give us something but Pep seems happy how we are and that's enough for me. It's his job on the line.

Lose somethings in Sterling and gain others in Palmer and Alvarez. The beauty of football.

 

[blueblueblue2]

Felix was only on offer if Bernie went to Atletico.

He doesn't want to go there.

Told bigger than Felix and we could have another £200m to spend.

Bigger than Felix? Neymar lol?

 

[oakiecokie]

Worth remembering the transfer window doesn’t close until 1st September, that’s a hell of a long time to get replacements should any transfers out be completed.

Far too many bed wetters at the moment Rammy.
