I feel that we'd be doing Richy and ourselves a disservice to move him on so soon, without seeing how much better he can be when not playing with a painful injury. Its clearly been holding him back, and despite how I've been critical of him I'd love him to be the true CF solution that we need.

I don't think he's been the true CF solution anyone needs? He's never been prolific, and I don't think he's about to start now. I'd take the money and reinvest.

 

[dontcallme]

I was in favour of Richy when he was an extra option for the front line.

But now he's in line to lead the line, I'm not so confident.

Part of me thinks he needs a chance, part of me thinks if we can get our money back we should.

Basically I don't know anything and am sitting on the fence.

 

[GetKaned]

Sell for 100mn and reinvest. Hopefully on that bloke playing for Bayern

 

[southlondonyiddo]

Whatever the question was he’s definitely not the answer

I’d bite their hands off before they chopped off mine!!!

 

[Trix]

True. PEH rumours true as well. Been talking for quite a while regarding both leaving in January. Richarlisson to Saudi, Peh interest from Italy, Spain and Germany.

No complaints from me if these happen.

 

[djhotspur]

God imagine if we get our money back for him and 30m for hojberg. Sign Nico Williams, kelly and a 6 and we are in a good position I think. Might well need a RCB with pace too but not sure who.

 

[Kingellesar]

We need to make sure we have someone lined up ready to come in if he does go. I wanted him to do well for us but for some reason it just hasn't quite clicked.

Yeah, depends I guess on how we view Veliz. Id rather us go big for a nico Williams type who can play both wings and we can move Johnson to striker for the time being. He plays like Son anyway.

I'm confident our current transfer committee is very proactive.

The problem for buying for right now is it's always difficult.

Even Prem experienced players can take time to settle in.

A front 3 of Johnson, Son and Kulu is pretty decent.

I'd be happy at us getting a good fee for Richy, Hojbjerg and letting Dier go. Our recent transfer activity is something to be confident in.

 

[Kingellesar]

Yeah a front 3 of Kulu, Son and Johnson is fine but we lose Son for a month so it will leave us light up front.

Unless we start seeing more of Gil and Veliz

 

[Trix]

Offers for Veliz on loan also on the table.

 

[rossdapep]

Richys problem is that he is not a Ange type winger as they need to be able to hold width and have good 1v1 skills.

He is more suited to CF in this system but Sonny is not going to lose that spot as he is our most prolific attacker.

 

[Gilzeanking]

Yeah a front 3 of Kulu, Son and Johnson is fine but we lose Son for a month so it will leave us light up front.

Not for me. Ange has mentioned that we are not performing properly in the front third. With our 1st team defence/midfield being so brilliant it would be
a shame to just have a 'good enough' forward line. We still have no effective 1vs1 dribbling attacker...Johnson was disappointing with his passing back
vs Wolves. I'd add more options up front, especially if we can offload Richie to the Gulf.

...and PEH to wherever. If poss I'd like a serious proven forward with the cash these 2 generate, plus a CB ofc.

 

[newbie]

If we sell PEH, Rich, Dier, we will be very short on players.

I can’t see us signing 3players in the window.

Is Kelly a good option? We need to sign players who will be challenging or better than what we have not squad players.

 

[Westmorlandspur]

True. PEH rumours true as well. Been talking for quite a while regarding both leaving in January. Richarlisson to Saudi, Peh interest from Italy, Spain and Germany.

Suppose Richy might be tempted in view of his recent money problems

 

[jonnyp]

Bite their hands off

 

[Twizzle]

depends on what the offers, obviously

If it is decent money for those 2, or even 3 if Dyer goes, we could invest it well
