Don't let them leave tonight until they've agreed a fee and he's signed the contract.

Joao Gomes doing himself no harm today either considering our supposed interest too.

Was a powerhouse performance in the middle of the park.

All our wingers would look good (better) in a counter attacking side with loads of space behind them like Neto has today.

Not saying he's not better or wouldn't improve us (I believe he would) just let's not base it on a performance against a very open attacking team (us)

Killed us today

watching Doku against chelsea, he faces n looks to take on his opponent every time, and opponent had to double team on him

Neto is the same imo

Even if it’s not him, we need someone like that

Yep, said this last summer. There is no one in our attack that oppo teams would seriously be worried at the the thought of one of their defenders caught in one on one situations. I think we will look to address it in the summer and like you say if not Neto, has to be someone in that mould.

We definitely need 2 wingers.

Honestly our attack lacks so much quality compared to City, Scum and Liverpool imo.

Son needs to be played at striker and rotated with either Richarlison or a new striker. If we’re being brutally honest and really want to progress, probably a new striker.

I'd say he was easily the most influential player on the pitch on the day yesterday and in all honesty was key the difference that I believe ultimately consigned us to getting jack all out of the game.

I think Richarlison, Son, Veliz are fine as ST options for now. Son is not a winger so we either need one player who is the top, top level that can play LW and RW, i.e. Neto, or we go for one of each who are younger and cheaper.

I'd go all in for Neto and give ourselves Neto, Son, Richarlison, Kulusevski, Johnson, Veliz, Donley as forward options. We have other issues to sort out too so two wingers probably isn't realistic. Neto, Bergvall, Lloyd Kelly on a free and whoever our chosen DM is. I'd be happy with that.

I think Son can still play winger but only in certain games. Tbh I feel the same about him as a CF, it really depends on the opponent. Regardless of that i agree, need two and one of them shouldn’t be Werner imo. In theory one could be Solomon but realistically he should probably be moved on unless we are convinced he’s past his issues. Which I doubt we would be. It’s a shame as do think he could offer something but I’d feel very nervous about going into next season with him as an option.

Our attacking line has been an issue all season, it’s just not up to the level of the rest of the first team imo. Just bringing in Neto say isn’t going to fix all our issues. Yes he would help a lot but I think we need more.

Personally I’d be getting rid of Gil, Solomon and probably letting Werner leave then putting a good chunk of our summer budget on two wingers, one for each side.

If it was me, I would go Richy, Gil out and not sign Werner then buy a striker. Sesko or another young striker, Neto and a young winger like a Nusa.
