O'Neil aka GONe

Lineker & co bigging up O'Neil in their podcast apparently.
 
We all assume that Neto will be one and the policy is okay if the other is Hwang, Dawson and at a push Kilman [because of the fee he would potentially attract]. If the 'other' is one of Gomes, Cunha, Lemina or RAN we have serious issues. Sarabia, Semedo, Toti, Hugo Bueno, Santi Bueno and Sa would all need fees far greater than I expect we would receive to make them viable as well.
In my view the money for the 'other' player sold with Neto needs to come from Bellegarde, Silva, Podence, Guedes and Doc. With Sasa on the list as well pre injury.
 
Surely it will be Neto, then one of Hwang or RAN, can't see any of the other players generating enough funds.
If we sell Neto and Hwang we'll need to sign 3 forward players (we're already running with 1 short imo) unless one of the youngsters steps up.
 
Surely it is easier to say that we are looking to keep all key players at the club. We know however that if one of Europe's elite clubs comes in with an offer for a player that meets our expectations then we would have to consider these things carefully. We would have to judge the detrimental effect this will have on the team along with how those funds be can be spent in trying to improve the squad.

Not if you are really looking to sell them
 
If we HAD to sell Neto plus one other it'd be Hwang who I'd choose. Not sure we'd get that many interested though or a sizeable fee.
 
Don’t really think it makes any difference. It’s no big secret clubs need to sell players. It’s no big secret good players want to leave mid table clubs for CL clubs.

Saying “they aren’t for sale” when everyone knows they are doesn’t achieve anything. Same as saying “they are available for the right price” doesn’t suddenly mean you get mugged off
 
Semedo might go. Probably the last window we can get a fee for him as we'll be unlikely to offer him a new deal unfortunately.
 
Every player is for sale at the right price - that motto never changes - provided of course that the player wishes to move .

On Neto - his injury record might tell against him yet . Why would you splurge big money on a player who tends to miss a fair chunk of a season more than once ?

On Hwang......lets not forget his form pre the Asian Cup . No one was giving out then . His final match in 2023 - at home via Everton , he was really good and deserved a goal . His injury at the Asian Cup has messed him up . He's a finisher , and God knows we need one of those . It's not as if we're in the market to buy a player for 40 million plus to replace him . We're not , and finding a player for 15 m that can finish on a regular basis and score 15 goals / season is next to impossible .
Unless we're offered silly money of course and he chooses to leave.....

Why not ? He's been a revelation this season , a contender for Player of the Season .

I'm a firm believe in ' better the devil you know ' theory ' .
