Finn balor Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 I know a lot of people doubted moshiri but I don't think that applies anymore. Regardless of what happens to rom or Ross. As expected they go we are a totally different entity now. We are smashing it and everyone is taking notice. Nobody is doing what we are. Fucking love it. Rooney next,gilfi and giroud/dembele after that and we are seriously in business markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 (edited) potential senior squad, wanted to post this to see what positions we still need filled (433 so mids/forwards are just lumped together): GK: Pickford, Robles, Stekelenberg RB: Coleman, Kenny LB: Baines, CB: Keane, Williams, Mori, Jags, Holgate, Galloway, Pennington CM: Schniederlin, Gana, Klaassen, Barry, McCarthy, Davies, Besic, Dowell RF: Barkley, Bolasie, Lennon LF: Mirallas, Lookman CF: Sandro, Calvert-Lewin, Tarashaj Figure Lukaku is out, Barkley stays. I think we need another CF as a backup (make DCL 3rd choice) and another forward to play on the right or left (both preferably) to provide cover. Centre Mid and centre back look well stocked. net spend 23.6m klaassen 25m pickford -10.5 gerry 7m onyekuru 5m sandro -8m cleverley 25m keane 67.1m so far we have spent.

Wow, they are also naming players (keita, van dijk) they haven't even signed and acting like they are on their side ?? lovren and Matip better than keane? Ffs jags is better than those 2.

DownUnderToff Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Hakan Calhanoglu has gone to Milan, they're building themselves quite a squad. Reckon we missed a trick on that one. With Gylfi having gone quiet, who (if any) are we going to get for a top line no. 10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinn31 Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 (edited) We need further cover at fullback and I don't think we could ever stock up on enough quality forwards, especially if Lukaku is leaving. I still think this squad lacks a true playmaker/proper 10. Edited July 4, 2017 by Quinn31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think this squad lacks a true playmaker/proper 10. Agreed. Seems strange, given we've brought in 5 players (4 excluding lad loaned out), but I'd still like 4 more (I'm also assuming Lukaku and Barkley are gone). Think we need a high end no. 10, quality young LB to take over from Baines, another ST/Winger (preferably can play both), and a quality young (22 or less) CDM who can back up/fill in (and ultimately challenge) for Morgan.

nogs Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Best Transfer Window Ever... and the players only went back for pre-season yesterday! Whoever is behind it, Koeman, Walsh, Moshiri, a combination of all three - thank you! I can't wait for the season to start, and England haven't even played a Test match yet! Oh and on what the RS think - my dad and brother are both reds, believe me they are worried. markjazzbassist, Lowensda and MikeO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may be blinded by love for the club with some of his past decisions, but no one can sell the passion, fan base, history and future of this club better than BK. I don't think Moshiri has had much to do with the actual player talks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Moshiri has had much to do with the actual player talks. I have to say, this is becoming more and more common. So massive credit to him. Finally, he can leave the club's dealings alone and just be a a brand ambassador instead. He excels at that. Leave the grown up stuff to Moshiri and team.

Leave the grown up stuff to Moshiri and team. agree with both points. after the transfers over the last year i think moshiri found the issues we've had in the past and got them corrected. Bill can now just talk about how great a club we are meanwhile one of his men is taking care of the contracts/negotiations so they go fast and smooth. Very impressed that the issue were corrected that fast. Says a lot about Farhad's business dealings and leadership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Strategy, strategy, and strategy. When that's in place, everyone knows what we want and what we don't want. It's a strong filter when people come to get their work done. It also means you can just go out there and get the job done, and that's what we're seeing. I would emphasize the point about helping us to know what we won't do. As I look at some of the top 6 clubs right now, I question whether they have a real strategy in place. They seem to be cherry-picking some of the top names in Europe for outrageous prices, but I don't see the rhyme or reason to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
