Still can't believe the United move turned sour for Rom. Expected him to be a massive hit there.
Sell Auba and Lacazette then bring in Moussa Dembele from Lyon and Edouard.
Reset.
Two huge downgrades. Martinelli and Pepe are big players for our future and I'm not sure that we can lose both Auba and Laca at the same time whilst our midfield is so dysfunctional.
Hmmm downgrades? How worse can it get? We’re 10th at the moment and we can cash in on both of our “world class” strikers who are 30 and 28 then use those funds to invest in other areas of the squad plus make the team slightly more balanced.
Getting both Moussa Dembele (23) and Edouard (22) would be smart business as both have already scored 15+ goals already this season.
If we sell both auba and laca...we should go for victor osimhem and habib diallo
I'm starting to think we should and get one good striker in their place - with the fees they will command it shouldn't be too difficult.
I agree, replace them with a really good hold up man and a proper left winger/forward. There is no need for 2 high profile strikers with Nketiah and Martinelli.
A man for all weathers, teams and managers. Immune to the sh!tness.I wouldn't mind it very much either way, but I think I'd prefer keeping Auba, unless selling him meant getting >60m which we could then re-invest in another blue chip or top prospect.
But someone in a different thread said that Auba transcends the system, and I agree. There is always a goal in him. The numbers speak for themselves. Happy he plays for us, shame he is nearing 32 and the last year of his deal. Because there aren't many players of his caliber available in the market of world football.
Hypothetically speaking, just imagine where we'd be without Aubameyang the last couple of seasons. Martinelli would already have played so many minutes in losing fixtures he'd be wanting out by now.
Dude I don't know why, but you keep cracking me up.A man for all weathers, teams and managers. Immune to the sh!tness.
Don’t get why we have to sell him this summer really.
Let him go on a free, he’ll be 32 and at the end of his peak anyway. We probably knew when we bought him we wouldn’t be selling him on for any decent money.
Don’t worry, I’m here most days under this account name lol Eastmond could have been anything if the club let him have the stage. Eastmond will always be the left-sided Essien who was murdered by the club imo.Dude I don't know why, but you keep cracking me up.
Maybe it's a combination of the content you're posting, along with the tag and the young Coquelin (is it?) stanning in your profile picture. But I absolutely adore it.
Not the mention that time when you called me out for being the guy who once (jokingly) proclaimed: "I hope we win" in a matchday thread, like it was some sort of notable staple of my contributions on this forum. :rofl: Keep bringing the positivity and laughter, Jury Lite II.
We're in the middle of a huge rebuilding project - if we could get a good amount for him, in the area of 40-60m, we should. Time to start thinking of the future, especially if we miss CL this season again.
Conversely if we make CL we’d drop right back out of it again if we’re trying to find a good enough replacement for 40M.
We'd have money from other sources as well, that's why I suggested selling both Aubameyang and Lacazette (the latter is the more obvious case). For that kind of money we'd have no problem finding a suitable replacement.
And isn't Timo Werner's release clause in that area?
