Pleased for Bamford. Hope he gets extension.
We need to start offloading our deadwood. Although he can be useful we could prob get 25 for gnonto. 5 mez. 12-15 piroe. Offload Harrison and gel too if poss.
That’s about 50 on top of the 35 we supposedly have. Just need three players. Centre back although amps could cover. Attacking mid and striker.

I would flog Gnonto, Piroe, mes and Geldhart (he's on loan) and Harrison.
Buy a wingback, winger and attacker.

Not sure we need another CB and not certain how often a 10 is needed given the recent change in formation.
Plus a 10 requires the team to be technically astute to play patterns through your 10 I think we have proven we are not technically strong and a more direct approach is better suited to our current squad.
Given our mini resurgence with Namecheck and DCL up top together, and their known issues in terms of breaking down with Injuries I would put every single penny we had first and foremost in recruiting strong, fit powerful central strikers.
No coincidence that the likes of Haaland, Igor and Matetta, Welbeck sit as current highest scorers in the epl, power up top is what’s needed most, flair and technical players may come once we’re established in the division.
Whatever our misgivings if we lose one or both our two big lads up top together a long term injury we’re in serious do da.

cant see anyone buying Harrison due to his wages which are currently £90k per week. who would equal that sum?
{Ed025's Note - 90p would be overpaying him Alf..

Did you notice our change in tactics second half v pool class? Change in tactics and formation. For Farke to keep doing that he needs cover in all three areas. Just in case. As well as injuries to consider.

The problem is with these players mentioned, their values has almost bottomed out.
Gnonto and Struijk for PSR reasons would be the only ones we could profit from, but the funds generated from their sales I doubt very much we would find better.
If it’s true that the club maxed out it’s spending this summer then I can only see a loan or two coming in or more than likely, no one.
Another reason to try to understand what Daniel Farke is up against in the very difficult season.

we have £30m-£35m we could spend if we wanted to OP from what I hear.

Some strange wishlists here. We've got 4 CBs plus Amps can fill in there, so don't need another. We've got 3 good Wingbacks plus Byram as an emergency backup, probably ok there. We've got 5 at DM or CM so ok there.
What we don't have is a decent AM or No 10, and our 2 main strikers both have dubious fitness histories. It'sin thoss two positiona where we have the grearest need to add to the squad.
