OhYesNdidi Posted 27 February 2022 Share Posted 27 February 2022 I think we will lose Tielemans and look to sell Hamza, Soynucu, Mendy will leave on a free(?), and vestegaard (which we won’t be able to shift). That’s probably circa £50-60m. I don’t think we need a lot to be competitive next season for top 6. Some experience at the back whilst investing in a Fofana like CB, someone young and athletic. We probably need a CM but I’m not sure what’s going on re Soumare, will he kick on next season? Tarkowski’s contract runs out this summer and Raphina’s runs out 2024, if leeds get relegated I’d like us to try and be ambitious and attempt to get him, if not I like to look of Tete at shaktar. Rather than replacing Tielemans like for like, adding a RW capable of greater creativity and goal scoring numbers could be the way to go? I’d also sign Lookman. So, gone slightly FM but it’s nice to dream My match day squad for game week one next season!

Foxes96 Posted 27 February 2022 Share Posted 27 February 2022 Would anyone take Harrison, if Leeds go down? Mostly plays on the left for them, but left footed and hard working player, and probably more attainable than Raphina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrispinLA in Texas Posted 27 February 2022 Share Posted 27 February 2022 What we need is a player like Adama Traore (if there is one) to provide chances for Daka, else Daka won't get the service to score. Adama Traore is doing wonders at Barcelona, he's got strength and pace with which he can outrun the opposition and pass to better quality strikers who can score than he had at Wolves. Most people were blinded by the ability of Traore because he was playing for Wolves who are as a whole defensive team with less quality players upfront. Put Traore in a team full of quality strikers and he becomes an assist machine. Wolves never got the best out of him because they weren't built to play for his strengths, he's simply running to the touchline causing problems and then crossing the ball. The chances attacking players like Daka would have with the a player like Traore would have been incredible, he's unstoppable player opposition players don't know how to deal with. We need to stop paying 25m for timed french players like Soumare who can't adjust to EPL condition and buy big stronger players. Look how good Kulusevski has been at Spurs and he only played about 2 or 3 games. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they will be looking to the future past Mane and Salah in the summer. Mane has been poor most the season. With Salah they need to be thinking succession planning. That's Raphina.

An Sionnach Posted 28 February 2022 Share Posted 28 February 2022 The main reason any established player would want to come to LCFC now is money. We pay very highly among the best in Europe. Winning trophies ,in the near future at least , is unlikely and the management issue is becoming unsettling for the whole club. In other words we are nowhere near as attractive as we were at the beginning of the season. We will just have to offer the biggest contracts and that is a very expensive policy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re: paying the biggest contracts - Not necessarily. We've got where we are today by being better than most at spotting players before they've made a name for themselves. If we can carry on doing that, we'll be fine. Edited 28 February 2022 by Raw Dykes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All very well going on the pitch commiserating or praising your own players, not getting into conversation with an opponent players, really out of order. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolo Barella Posted 1 March 2022 Share Posted 1 March 2022 If they got relegated, wouldn't mind to see us raid Leeds for Raphinha, Phillips and Llorente. Could probably pay for them with the fees we would get for Tielemans Soyuncu, and our other outgoings. Them plus Colwill and Lookman would be a good window.
