No more loans please. I want a team building strategy, not a series of guest players like we were setting up for testimonial matches only. Aarons may be on loan admittedly but that one may turn into a permanent one, thus obviating the need for another RB.

That could take more than 1 summer transfer window though. Our loan system has worked pretty well recently. Im taking a fit Patterson over Aarons all day long. Celtic having Taylor but resigning Tierney wasnt a show stopper for them.

I hear this kinda stuff every year in our summer transfer windows. Last year was good for it.

 

The end result was we weren't ready for a massive game and were knocked out by a toilet team.

What do you suggest?  Do i need to look out my pitchfork?

It doesn't matter what you or I do. But the club needs to ensure some key positions in the squad are filled ASAP if, at best we have a hope of qualifying for the CL. At worst we make it past the first qualifier, and enter the Europa with the 5 million parachute payment for dropping out of the CL qualifiers at next stage. That is a huge amount of money for us, it is there waiting.

 

Its well known that the likes of Therwell and Purdy were at Old Trafford in January. This whole thing has been in the works for some time. The fact the only deal we have completed at the moment is one that Koppen sealed in January for Cameron is less than ideal.

Would be a big ask to beat either Benfica or Brugge for CL.  I'd take EL now, hopefully pot 1.

Pretty sure I read somewhere — or saw something — that depending on our qualifying route, we’re not guaranteed any league phase European football this season like previous seasons. Whether it’s Champions League, Europa League, or even the Conference League… there’s a chance we could miss out on the league stage altogether

Perhaps a big ask, but at the moment its a huge ask. As we have a squad that would struggle to beat anyone.

True. 

 

We really need to get through our first qualifying round - that is a must, as it guarantees EL.

Yes a square back and sides should be made compulsory along with being clean shaven some of our players look like gadges
