Tell us more if you have heard something, please.
Just a name that was mentioned to me. Pep is apparently a big fan.

I have seen fans here talking about Branthwaite.

The club monitored him and Archie Gray intensely during last season. The interest for these young English lads is real. But it doesn’t mean the club will move for them this summer.

ooh nice, wonder why they are leaning towards english lads with how fucked up the market prices are for them.

It’s not a case of leaning towards English lads. These are just two English lads the club feel like they should monitor for obvious reasons.

Same way the club are keeping a close eye on the development of Van De Ven.

Not while Levy is still at Spurs.
 
100 million euro release clause , but Valencia apparently need to sell rumours that Barca or Atletico could get him for 25 million this summer. Supposed to be a big la liga talent.


This guy is 100% Rodri mark 2, maybe a little quicker. We should be going balls deep for this lad we won’t find anyone better even if it were £200mill. Hope we don’t miss out
 
We're currently the best side in the world with a few aging players...just look at Real who like to think they're the best, the last 3 seasons, they shit themselves
How do you mean they shit themselves?
I think we are the best but I don't understand what you mean by Madrid shitting themselves.

They played like Arsenal played this season at ours over much of the 6 games they've faced us..... wouldn't yet to take us on.

Scared to go toe to toe and happy to get some referee/lucky breaks then move into shithouse mode.
 
That Guerra vid looks interesting - clips make him seem like he has a passing range similar to Rodri but drives the ball like Kova. His underlying numbers are a bit ropey though, which would make it a weird choice to bring in, at the expense of other targets. Perrone added for reference.

My perfect window is

Ederson and Ortega resign, failing that Ederson does and we get good money for Ortega and another solid back up. Think we would look for the same quality.

Walker goes. He has offers and a good time to leave.

We sign Frimpong for the 35m release clause.

Stones stays. No other changes to the defence.

Gomez goes. Replaced by academy player or similar prospect. Barca kid mentioned today.

Phillips and Cancelo sold or more likely loaned with options.

Buy Kimmich. Much better choice than Bruno in my opinion can cover RB, CDM and CM.

Bernado stays.

Nunes gets a loan move as don’t think there will be space if we sign another CM and Bernie stays. Makes sense that it’s Nunes but still believe there is a player there. Probably goes to Chelsea for 50m though.

We sign Savio. Wingers then are
Savio/Doku/Grealish/Bobb

But Savio gets a loan move to a CL club that’s not Girona.

Foden can play out wide but needs to play in the middle. Same for Alvarez but he needs to push Haaland more. Bobb to be used centrally as well.

Hopefully the Rodrygo talk means something and he’s the 100m+ player.

Ederson/Ortega/Caraon

Ake/Gvardiol/Dias/Akanji/Stones/Frimpong/Lewis + Gomez style squad player.

Rodri/Kimmich/Kovacic

Foden/KDB/Bernado

Grealish/Doku/Rodrygo/Bobb (Savio put on loan)

Haaland/Alvarez.

23 players, Frimpong/Foden/Bobb are club trained so enough spots for CL. Enough Home grown players as well.

But this is not football manager so I know it won’t happen.
We’ll be a bit short in the goalkeeper position if they both resign mate
 
72.4%, which is very very poor. Puts him in the 6th percentile in the top 5 leagues. For reference, both Rodri and Kova is in the 99th percentile

Yeah as I expected very low compared to our players, he does a lot of those low % passes but if he came his % would go up to around 90/95% I'd expected.. every miss placed pass from our midfield mainly ends with a shot on our goal to..
 
couple of articles linking us being interested in Rodrygo from madrid, can possibly see him leaving with mbappe now there

Not sure any truth that we would be interested
