Summer 2022 Transfer Window

Wed have to play 2 Central forwards wouldn't we if we signed Ben Yedder? Think he plays through the middle but can't see him leading the line on his own at 5 foot 7.

He plays as more of a second striker than an out and out 9, so yeah it would likely be in a 2 forward formation.
 
He's 32 next month, £20m being bandied around and his agent isn't Mendes, so doesn't seem likely to me on any level

He's a good player. I'm all for long term/resale value, but we've bought young players in Hoever and Cutrone who are now worth fuck all, so there's room to diversify the approach. If we got two good years out of him that would be fine.

Agreed . If we were making a habit of it and filling the squad in this way there would be a problem but once every so often if they add quality I'm all for it.

That's fair and I've no problem with buying players from Monaco either 😁
 
Given the sitch I'd have no issues in getting in a player or two that's just for the 'now' tbh. He's a bloody exciting footballer too

Probably get more than 2 depending on how well he looks after himself, his game isn't really pace dependent.
 
£20m isn’t that significant really, not relative to the money being spent by other clubs,
 
I’d say Paqueta would be the one going for the largest amount. Good goal scoring record for a midfielder for club and country.

What we need is a Stella young talent being developed to take his place in a couple of years…

Fairs. I’m aware your comment was tongue in cheek. But as we know comparing values in an entirely pointless exercise at times

If Lucas Paquetà is available he'll end up at Newcastle with Guimarães.

Newcastle have been linked through the summer.

I'll be surprised if we sign any of the three. Even if we don't what has become clear is we're after technical players. Which is why I find it strange we're selling MGW.
