How much would it cost to replace 11 goals in 31? 4 were penalties last season, they wont cost us anything to replace as we have Ings and others that can take pens. I would think we could replace and upgrade him for 25m/30m and I would be confident that the replacement would score the goals that we lose from selling El Ghazi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time is the essence so he will need to impress sooner or later because we need all areas to be utilised greatly, bidace has to be given a start soon as LW, he needs to be more clinical in the final third however and make better decisions but he causes tremendous problems for the opposition and will certainly be more of a dynamic nuisance than El-Ghazi I think (hope) that there are three factors: 1. He's getting over an injury 2. He's not yet fully fit 3. He's not helped by the fact that he hasn't got legs around him - I think Watkins' running would make Buendia look better (as at the start of pre-season - accepting it was only Walsall) and Bailey's pace (or possibly JPB) on the left hand side will also stretch the defence/create more space for Buendia to operate in. Equally, I think if we could get the balance right in our midfield then this would make Buendia's job easier/him look better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folski Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Personally do not think we are a selling club. Grealish left due to a release clause. We’ve been trying to shift dross for months and the best we could do is a loan deal for Wesley and release a few players. I don’t think we can sell anyone! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very impressive but big difference to come on and work your a off for 20-25 minutes compared to doing the same over 90 minutes. Stats get a bit skewed since only 3 or 4 of those games are starts and he's been brought on late in games against tired players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our issue is still quality in depth and the midfield. McGinn on his day can be up there and likewise Luiz - issue is consistency. We are probably a top midfielder away from being on that level. If I was to categorise them Top 6 to 8 players Martinez Cash Konsa Mings Targett Young McGinn Luiz Bailey Buendia Ings Watkins Traore Unknown Sanson Tuanzebe Need improving on Steer Guilbert Hause Hourihane Nakamba El Ghazi Trezeguet Wesley Davis Prospects Ramsey Chuk JPB I wouldn't disagree with much of this, except I think Hause is good enough as a second choice left sided CB for a team competing for the 5th-10th spot. I think Steer may be good enough for a second choice keeper but we haven't seen much of him recently so hard to know and I would say the same of Guilbert.

Popular Post hippo Posted August 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) Dwight McNeil - fee agreed per the Birmingham mail . Really would be a surprise imo. Edit: I fell for the Birmingham live dodgy headline. Burnley have agreed a fee for a bloke who plays in his position.
