Son Hueng-Min at Tottenham not signed a new deal yet expires in the summer. Yes he's 31 but supremely fit athlete regularly gets double figures G/A in each season. Hardworking world class player on his day would 100% have him here surely a player of his high calibre would want to win something before he retires???

Do we need an aguero-like forward who can work in tight spaces, technically great and like aguero can take players on
I think it would be a great option when games like yesterday and this season where Erling has been marked out the games

Get Neves for that as well, least we know someone has a decent budget to play with.

I think there is a reason that he has never been linked with a move elsewhere.Son Hueng-Min at Tottenham not signed a new deal yet expires in the summer.

Looks like we will do some big business this off season.Get Neves for that as well, least we know someone has a decent budget to play with.

For me:
First team regular RW: If they rate Savio that highly then it will be him. We need someone who can be a proper replacement for Mahrez and get similar output to him. Whether Doku moves out here eventually. I’d like to see Neto.
Both phases CM: Someone that can link up play , do defensive work and play as an 8. Paqueta would be perfect, has that hunger and grit and seems to be be everything we are missing.
RB/right sided defender: I’m torn on this over whether to go for another right-sided defender or go with an attacking wing back. I don’t think we want to be too one dimensional and an attacking wing-back gives us an option to switch up the way we play. Frimpong with a release clause is attainable. Diomande from Sporting for a defensive option. Although I do think we would have brought Porro back had we wanted to play in that way. For me it’s time Walker went. Apart from his 1 v 1 ability , he offers little else , is wasteful in possession , poor going forward and takes huge long range shots every match that he never scores for.
CDM/Rodri back-up: I do think Palhinha is someone I really like exceptional ball-winner , space coverer. Maybe we get that out of Paqueta and don’t need that. But we need to be able to give the guy a rest. Douglas Luiz , Palhinha , Zubimendi , Varela spring to mind.

Gonna be an interesting summer, definitely need a couple capable of pushing to be starters. Juggling Rico & Bobb probably needing more time as well with a 9 man bench gonna be fun for Pep.

Be interesting to know what the transfer budget is for this summer as Bruno and Paqueta at buyout clause prices would be £185m? Neto is rumored to be £60m, Savio £25m? £270m right there already?
I believe Pep will be sizeable transfer chest for next season, treble money + all EDS outgoings, plus maybe Cancel and Kalvin outBe interesting to know what the transfer budget is for this summer as Bruno and Paqueta at buyout clause prices would be £185m?

There seems to be a lot of genuine interest this summer, perhaps like never before. Other than the ones already mentioned, there are also legit links to the likes of Kimmich, Neves, Wirtz or Musiala as well.Be interesting to know what the transfer budget is for this summer as Bruno and Paqueta at buyout clause prices would be £185m?

Surely, we are looking at about 4 players + Savio?

doubtful with the squad size, unless a couple of names or kids leave. cant rely on injuries for lewis and bobb to make the bench minimum.There seems to be a lot of genuine interest this summer, perhaps like never before.

Hedging your bets there.Also Bernardo is probably definitely going
Come summer, Barcelona will be in no stronger a position to take him than they were last season, and Benfica can only afford him if he’s used in a deal for Neves. Would they not prefer the money and would we not prefer another year of Bernardo? He’s a hostage to his contract (summer 2026) and circumstances, so unless something shifts and he forces his way out, which would be wholly out of character, I expect him to be here again next year.
