Come on take the bet!
Come on take the bet!Good job I’m stood up otherwise I’d fall off my chair laughing
Let's follow the Hull City model. That went so wellCome on bling, open that wallet and bring us 2/3 quality additions
I might just be feeling threatened since my real name sound exactly like Samwise GamgeeBut that’s a positive not a negative Sam
Think the talk of Chelsea full back was OliseWeren't there a mention of Caleb Wiley at some point on here?
Seems to be going Watford on a loan to buy option..

Rapha?We really need a backup RW in my opinion. For me if theres no more movement thats probably the priority.
Just think we need another attacking option off the bench. Even a loan that can fill in either side would get a lot of minutes coming in at 60-70 pretty much every game regardless.
Yeah I think so too. Think Rapha needs a loan and we need a viable option apart from Saka.We really need a backup RW in my opinion. For me if theres no more movement thats probably the priority.
I think a loan is best suited for him personally.Rapha?
Yeah I'm thinking that too.I think a loan is best suited for him personally.
I know hes getting good reports, but going from barely any minutes last year, to a viable rotation option this is a big ask
If we could pick up a winger on loan surely it'd make sense to do Doak from Liverpool if he's available.
A class player at this level, stood out at Middlesbrough last season. He is injury prone though which may be an issue.
Yes. The Matondo ‘deal’ also makes me suspect there’s still some cash left. It was proposed that this would be a temp to perm deal, with a fee. While at the same time we clearly also needed a LB and RB…which we’ve signed.We'll definitely be looking to shift a striker to get in a winger IMO
For all the "options" people are adding as our depth on the wing - only 2 of them (3 if Rapha comes good but feels unlikely) actually play the role how Lampard wants & both have had injury issues
in January we signed Patterson and nearly signed Matondo - it was clearly an area of focus then so I don't see why it wouldn't be now
Matondo will be available again, and probably for very little, after managing just 330 mins for HannoverYes. The Matondo ‘deal’ also makes me suspect there’s still some cash left.

Would be curious to see if the club still has any interest after not a great loan spell, can’t imagine they wouldMatondo will be available again, and probably for very little, after managing just 330 mins for Hannover

Haha - never thought about that before mate! BrilliantI might just be feeling threatened since my real name sound exactly like Samwise Gamgee
No idea how it would work but if we ran out of wingers what about this system? Would it work?
Gk - Wilson
RB - van Ewijk
CB - Thomas
CB - Kitching
LB - Kesler-Hayden
CDM - Grimes
RCM - Torp
CM - Sheaf
LCM - Rudoni
ST - Simms
ST - Wright
where Grimes tucks into the backline allowing both fullbacks to bomb forward providing width along with Wright and Rudoni (of which keeps his free role) Sheaf and Torp playmaking
The sort of idea is a 3421 on attack with Rudoni and Wright either side of Simms and Torp and Sheaf in the center with Grimes dropping deeper. Then on defence effectively a 442/4132Lacks a lot of width. You’d essentially be pushing the fullbacks up a lot and having a DM drop into a three anyway so may as well play 532.
Seeing Sunderland spend cash all over the shop makes me wonder had we of gone up do you think we would have been spending £20-30m each on players like they are…. I highly doubt it.
Credit to them for giving it a proper go. Big outlay if they don’t manage to stay up.

I only got round to watching LOTR recently and it answered all the questions I had about why it has been a lifelong nicknameHaha - never thought about that before mate! Brilliant
MVE has played RW before, maybe that’s FL’s thinking, KKH, MVE, Rafa and Tats for right sided positions?Raphael could save us some work if he puts in some good mins in pre-season. If he doesn't, loan him out till Jan and get someone in. Depth on the whole right flank needs sorting somehow.
yes and at a price tag of £20m …. He won’t be doing a cheap loan anywhereLiverpool will probably look to move him on permanently as a part of their wider funding strategy for their transfer spend this window. I know Palace were rumoured to be interested.
If not, I would imagine it would command a healthy loan fee to bring him in. Something I very much doubt DK would willingly sanction.
We’ll surely be signing 1-2 wingers this window. Unless Rapha has turned a massive corner, we need 4 wingers to ensure there’s enough good quality depth on the bench to change games.No idea how it would work but if we ran out of wingers what about this system? Would it work?

Hopefully we do yes and fingers crossed we dont have the same injury issues as last season where all our options for a position were out at the same timeWe’ll surely be signing 1-2 wingers this window. Unless Rapha has turned a massive corner, we need 4 wingers to ensure there’s enough good quality depth on the bench to change games.
Against Sunderland in the playoffs, we didn’t really have any attacking threats on the bench at AM/out wide.
