The times I’ve seen Whittaker he’s flattered to deceive a bit in general play. Gave me Bothroyd vibes!

We don’t want to replace him.

He definitely won’t start next season as a backup. Key player but it will be nice to have an attacking wing back to call upon should the state of a game dictate the need for one.

No I don’t think so. Be interesting to see if we extend his deal. The manager wants different profiles at wing-back / full-back

Not heard too much on that. Obviously he’s being watched heavily but think for the fee we want, he still needs to improve his end product. Which to be fair he has been showing signs off in the last few months.

Yerson is being lined up to be the right sided Toti when we want to build up differently. Can play as a tucked in right back and let the left back push on.

O’Neil wants somebody who can play right midfield and drop in to make a 5 when needed. Like RAN does on the left. Will give us more flexibility through the season being able to be higher down whichever side suits the tactics. He’s done it a few times lately but only had Doc to bring on in the...

Rodrigo Gomes is being looked at for the attacking right wing back option. They’ll think about what to do with Hoever in this situation too. Rowe would be an addition for the forward line. Pretty sure we bid last summer when the money came in for Nunes last minute.

If Traore puts in a few more performances like yesterday then we may not need to go for a Brownhill afterall

McAtee for me would be a good upgrade on Sarabia. Excellent in the pockets and can beat a man and thread a pass.

Yeah. If those two go I’d be expecting three in. Whether that two 9’s, one wide player or One no.9 and two wide attackers.

Bloke has the football knowledge of a toddler. And I don’t mean DW or Doc!

Jon Rowe and James McAtee we have strong interest in for next season. Potential Neto and Sarabia replacements. O’Neil open to Hwang being one of the two 9’s the way he has scored goals from that position this season. May see an extra wide player or attacking midfielder recruited instead of...

I think they want Brownhill. Somebody experienced, good tactically, can shoot from distance and comfortable around the opposition box.

If he kicks on again next season he could become an option to replace Semedo. Either that or add another few million onto his value.

They may keep him if they can’t find a wing-back, although we’re always heavily linked with Rodrigo Gomes. They feel he’s really matured in the second half of this season and don’t want to give up on the investment, unless somebody decides to offer very good money.

Speaking to somebody over the weekend, the definite intention is to bulk the squad to around 23/24 next season. Looking at 5 or 6 incomings and the likes of Mosquera and Chiquinho back. Expecting Neto and Sarabia to leave. Hoping for another year at least from RAN and Joao Gomes but obviously...

Anybody still think Muric is a shout? 🙈

Why on earth would you want to sell Toti? Had a very good season so far. Wide centre backs with athleticism are key in the modern game, allowing that flex in systems at the drop of a hat.

I think you saw yesterday why Kompany wanted to upgrade on Muric this season.
