Summer 2022 Transfer Window

Gomes and Mosquera are still pretty unproven imo, but at some point they have to play, or no point having them

Including Boly I think any team at our level struggles to have three, not one or two, better back ups to their first choice centre back pairing than those.
I wish we had three similarly "not okay" [Bear] back ups as centre forward or in midfield. The middle of defence is our strongest position on paper and made so by one seemingly excellent summer signing. If we had made a seemingly excellent midfield signing and likewise a seemingly excellent centre forward signing in any of the last three or four windows, the squad and new season would look to be a positive one. This isn't a knock on Bear's view, more a belief that we didn't have to do 'that much' each window to progress, but now need major reconstruction to stand still.

I think Toti is fine as the fourth choice tbh, I like what he has to offer. Just a question of whether Boly is fit and can do it in the back four to be the next option. Mosquera could probably do with a loan mind you.

Given what you've said about Boly and Toti [and what I think most probably agree with], I think there's too much risk in loaning out Yerson. That could leave us short.
 
Ornstein says MGW's representatives are refusing to discuss a new deal.
 
I can't help but think we're taking a risk with MGW. He hasn't (yet) cut it at PL level and his value will only decrease as his contract runs down.

He could be amazing and sign a new contract though I suppose.

He will wait until he knows he is 100% part of the 1st team and rightly so

Could just be dramatic use of language from the journalist but refusing doesn't sound like a very open minded approach.

Nothing to stop them starting talks and just dragging their feet into the season to make sure he's actually playing before signing on the dotted line.
 
Yeah I'd be fuming if we signed Duffy tbh

Who does he think is gonna play ahead of him? Traore?

In his view he's been treated badly for a couple of years. It's not surprising that he'd want to give it a month or so before signing a contract. If you contrast that with Cooper who had him at England U17 and Swansea you can see why he'd be on the fence

I don't think this is really the case. It is 100% clear that MGW is going to be part of the first team, it's been shown in pre season, they would have told him that and there is not any real competition anyway. It's not like it's all up in the air and then after he's played 10 games at the start of October everything has changed as unless he gets injured it's nailed on.

In fairness, he was one of our best players last preseason and then left out the first game. I completely understand if he does trust preseason based on that.

Which I would get but there is literally nobody else. Hwang and Campbell aren't going to usurp him.

If we play a front 3 he could find himself out of the team when we sign a striker. I wouldn't do that but that's plausible.

I'm hoping Bruno wouldn't be daft enough to play Donk over Pod or MGW if it came to that.
