I think if we hadn't signed Dawson, we'd have gone down. I'm normally quite dismissive of the need for "Premier League experience", but he was the perfect signing. Only just gone 33 so hopeful he'll be good for another couple of years too.
I think Joao Gomes will be with us until Summer 2025 at the absolute best, will go for £70m+, spend the rest of his career at elite level, and be in the team of the tournament at the '26 World Cup. I'm not even joking. Kid is an absolute phenomenon. Also, it does come across on the telly, but I think it's just that Alan's a bit racist so that's why he doesn't rate him
