The Summer 2024 Transfer Thread.

We need a quality CB, as the only one we have is Dawson and he is 34, and past his best. All the others we have are squad makeweights.

Sort the defence and the rest of the side will improve.
 
People are struggling to count it seems.
I’ve got the current squad at 23 players with three keepers, Mosquera, Rodrigo Gomes & Chiquinho included.

In terms of forwards, six or seven for the three forward positions would be more than enough (RAN & R.Gomes are also options not included here) and with one more signing that’s where we’ll be.

The ones that can read will see I said we’d then be replacing the outgoings to maintain those options. Neto, Sarabia, Chiquinho all potentially could go. How we replace them is the key. We could end up with two new 9’s plus Hwang or we could sign an extra wide player and Cunha becomes the third nine if we have injuries to the two first choices.

I make it 25 with Rodrigo Gomes, but all the ones in italics will surely either go or in Sasa's case, not be registered in September as he won't be fit until after Christmas.
 
How did I miss them :D

(Insert your own easy joke about Bellegarde here)
 
It's pretty poor that we've managed to collect loads of senior players that pretty much everyone would more or less give away.

Over £100m spunked up the wall, and coincidentally all of our FFP losses.

But Jeff Shi is fucking ace and we are only 1 striker short of a full squad. Fucking puddled.

I’m alright at reading ta. Not a surprise as Rish! told us on panorama last night that children in the UK were the best at reading in the whole country…

You still think we are light on numbers then?
 
It does seem good business tbf.

It's numbers in areas that we are short.

We don't have any competent centre backs outside of Dawson, we don't have any full backs bar Semedo, we don't have a centre forward full stop, we only have 1 inside left player in Cunha but we now have 4 inside/ wide right players, 3 right wing backs, 2 left wing backs, 4 defensive midfielders, zero attacking centre midfielders unless you include Bellegarde.

It's no good saying the numbers are right when we could have 25 players but no team. Which is what we have.
 
3 keepers
5 centre backs (plus Semedo can tuck in)
5 wing backs
4 centre mids
2 right sided attackers (Neto, Sarabia)
3 left sided (Cunha, Bellegarde, Chiquinho)
1 striker (at least one to be signed)

You can argue about the quality, and there will be changes in personnel, but I don’t think it’s light on ‘numbers’ or balance at all.
