£80m would get Diomande.
Narrow formation. Like him though. His intelligence looks off the chart.Once again, Kroupi is the perfect replacement for Alvarez. He'll play alongside Haaland without any problems, whereas Marmoush struggles with his first touch and movement, being less mobile. Marmoush to Villa for £60M Kroupi here for £70M

I knew you'd like Godts. Shades of KvaraI would rather invest on Mika Godts & Kenan Yildiz
Let’s get 2 LW then while having one already. I think the club needs an actual RW more.I would rather invest on Mika Godts & Kenan Yildiz
I think an elite RW is the smarter buy over another LW, ST or even 2 midfielders (just really need Anderson).Let’s get 2 LW then while having one already. I think the club needs an actual RW more.

Exactly, even Semenyo seems a bit more comfortable on the left than the right. We need a very good, left-footed right winger, but unfortunately, I don't see any realistic options on the market right now.Let’s get 2 LW then while having one already. I think the club needs an actual RW more.
An attacker comfortable across the front-line is exactly what we need.No doubt a quality player but we don’t need anymore of these half striker half anything in attack profile. Natural wingers, midfielders and fullbacks this summer please.
Dont see where he fits in
Not a wide player....aint anywhere near Foden or Cherki levels (regardless of Fodens form) in a no.10 role and we have seen what happens to the teams overall performance levels when we try and play a second striker next to Haaland....its shit
Semenyo can deputise as a forward for Haaland upfront when he doesnt play.
We dont want Cherki outwide....yes he can play there and play well but we lose his creativity centrally and his goal threat...Pep has said he wants him close to goal - that aint outwide.
If we are going for a forward this summer it needs to be a true wide player on the right
Where we lack is a true number 8 however.....Reijnders has been very poor and though he will get one more season at least its going to need the biggest upturn in form needed since Kalvin Phillips to get near to being good enough
If the idea is to replace Marmoush who has barely been at the club 2 years to a guy who would be slightly more happy to sit bench instead then I don’t get it. Marmoush came with the same idea of playing across the frontline and look how that went. Semenyo being a natural winger has led to increased game time and he can play centrally too. Once again I do think he’s a neat player but could argue for that value you could also try for Joao Pedro at Chelsea who is more established. But prioritise getting goal scoring wingers.An attacker comfortable across the front-line is exactly what we need.
Assuming Marmoush goes, which is likely, we have no cover for Erling, and a back-up striker will rarely play, so someone who can play central and wide is a good fit.
With Bernardo going, we do need a midfielder, of course, and we have one full-back vacancy.
We cannot blame Marmoush because he hardly plays. Expecting him to be razor-sharp is naive and many fans lack the patience to wait for players to come good. In addition, the player may decide that waiting around is not for him, or the promises that were made were not fulfilled - we just don't know what the player thinks, but he has a market value that will be worth exploiting should those issues be genuine.If the idea is to replace Marmoush who has barely been at the club 2 years to a guy who would be slightly more happy to sit bench instead then I don’t get it.
