What if we didn’t actually sign anyone, apart from the obvious ( keeper cover and torp cover ) we wouldn’t be far off again would we ? Could argue we had our best run with loads of injuries,when Allen stepped up, wouldn’t expect too many coming in, 2 or 3 quality signings over 6 or 7 average ones ?

This lad is a CB, young and market value 1.5 mil, he's quick and physical and intercepts alot of the oppositions attacks, he also gets on the end of set plays... Looks a good proposition

At that age he doesnt exactly fit what Doug usually goes for.

Neither did Grimes and we paid a 7 figure sum for him.

So? By that logic we could sign Kevin De Bruyne then

And not the type of player we have brought in since King took over.

Logic? Just pointing out someone isn't on 60k a week when they're out of contract. And most probably won't get offered as much as that now either.

Lampard has made 2 signings since taking over. Both exceptions to the rule....

I highly doubt Lampard joining the club will signal a change in recruitment policy. Grimes was a top end Championship midfielder that was available reasonably cheaply.

I'd hope if Wright is sold and Gyokeres moves there might be enough money in the pot to resist offers for MVE

We’ll need to sell him if we want to the budget to push on again.

I imagine he’ll be much more involved compared to previous seasons.

Think you’re referring to Van Ewijk here but the same applies to Wright. Will be a pain in the arse to lose him but he’ll be 28 next summer and I’d argue the window of opportunity to get a sizeable fee will have gone by then.

Almost definitely and generally, his preference is to work with younger players and he’s made that clear when talking about it his coaching style.

Robins was more involved with recruitment than we think to be honest and if he did take a step back, it would’ve definitely been his own doing. I just cannot imagine a scenario where Robins would’ve asked to be more active in recruitment and being told no.

By the sounds of murmurings from ITKs, he pushed for specific targets such as BTA.

Frank has won a tonne of things as a players always with a mix of young and proven players. I doubt he will move far from that model as a manager.

We don’t have a particularly young side anymore, I’d expect to add one more ‘experienced’ pro but rest of the signings being 25-26 and under.
