You can add to this budget by selling players, if you want
Fellini, Begovic, Michu, Get your money out buddy.
50m would be enough to even get a higher level EPL starter, no it is the starting negotiations point
Might as well go all in on Douglas Luiz or Ivan Toney. Either we get a goalsman or we stick with our tactics last season and have 3-4 people all contribute almost 15 g/a.
Buy anyone called Gabriel.
Low bid Toney
CM and ST
I’d get a promising younger center mid that is capable at 6 and 8, and have him bed in while preparing for Partey’s injury spells/eventual departure.
Someone like (sp?) Bajcetic at Liverpool, not saying him specifically, just a profile like that.
We’re a little shallow in defense, but I think Timber returns before April. And I’d plan for a big striker purchase in the summer.
Sell Nketiah for 35m and cut the Havertz experiment short and get him gone for 40m. Low ball Toney for 50m+ESR and Luiz for 60m
GroB
Kephrem Thuram
Elite ball carrier, good short passer, doesn’t score much but looks like he has a good shot on him, 22 yr old and shouldn’t cost a bomb
He also has a lot of the traits Arteta was seemingly after with height, wins duels and presses well… only major box left unticked is he’s not left footed
Buy Neto or Bowen. Sell Vieira or ESR.
Then in the summer sort the #9, the #6, and the #1.
Saving… I think.
Only positions we need in January is right wing and Striker. With 50 million don’t think there’s anyone worth bringing in unless we sold also.
£50 mil to buy Kai’s confidence back
Using all of it to clone a perfectly healthy version of Jurrien Timber.
That way we have Timber in January, and 2 Timbers next season
Feel like we need to get another number 8 for the left…
