Trying to be realistic

Out:
Zinchenko, Garcia, Mahrez, Fernandinho, possibly Mendy

In:
LW Moussa Diaby, CDM Denis Zakaria, LB Nicolas Tagliafico, ST Patson Daka

 

[Homar]

What is it about Bissouma you dont think puts him in the top bracket?

To be honest, I don’t really notice him when watching Brighton. Top players generally stick out when playing in mediocre sides. Take Mane at Southampton or Tevez at West Ham for example. I’ll never understand why we didn’t pursue Mane. If the recruitment staff can’t spot an obvious talent like that, playing in this league, we’ve got serious problems.

The CDM position is going to be the most difficult to fill. I don’t really see anyone out there that I feel is destined to reach the levels of Fernandinho. It’s the one position that we may need to take a chance on someone. Strengthening the front three is arguably much more important though.

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

Haaland, Ndidi, Theo Hernandez, Daka.

Haaland and Grealish alone would cost us 200m

Haaland and Grealish alone would cost us 200m

And Douglas Luiz and Jack Harrison would cost 50m plus for players that we had bought in the 1st place.
Not sure what the buyback is on Luiz but I think someone mentioned it was 30m.
I'm guessing Leeds would value Harrison at more than 45m and if they were selling they'd sell to the highest bidder.
That loan we have with Leeds with obligation to buy does not look to have been the best or maybe we didn't think Harrison would turn out as good as he has.

Luiz, is 25 mill and we had no choice but to sell with a buyback as we couldn't get him a work permit. Could turn out a very good deal.

If we do buy him back he could well be.
The amount of players we bought that didn't have work permits is mind-boggling.
