Seems very scattershot right now but I doubt we're in for some of these players. Mount is genuine, probably Onana.
Yes, it's Amassive coupWill the signing of Harry Amass any optimism around here?
Which CB's do you think EtH has in mind? I assume Martinez is a fixture and anyone new would be competing with Varane.I feel we have a clear strategy for the first time in ages. I believe ETH wants to play with two #8s in the team. This means that we want to press higher up the pitch and that we need a CB and GK that are press resistant and that can cover large areas of space.
Mount is one of the best #8 we can buy. Probably the best one. Under that formation, we also ensure more goals from midfield, thus reducing the need for a top striker. Onana is one of the best GK around with the ball in his feet, and he is not afraid of covering large areas of space if needed. Thus, he makes perfect sense.
The CB that we have been linked to us are CBs that are press resistant and that can defend higher up in the pitch. This also makes sense.
This formation will also bring the best out of Sancho and Antony, since it will enable their interlink play. However, this new setup will be heavily dependent on Casemiro. We will need to sign a decent back up because no one in the squad can replace him. Finding a back-up for him would be even more important than a new CB.
We haven’t signed anyone yet, but at least the names linked to us make sense in this new formation.
How are we not in for Brozovic for £22/23m? He's an excellent #6 and can also play 8. Great passer, insane work rate and press resistant. We should do everything we can to get him here. Too bad it won't happen.
Everyone says his levels have dropped of massively. Would not have the engine for a PL season.Maybe he just wanted the big money
Everyone knows which way this is going. Absolute nightmare scenario where once again the manager is going on tour with the exact same squad as last year. Laughable really.
We are playing it smart (lol) they are letting everyone else spend their money and in the last week we will be ready to pounce on the targets we are really after.Seems very scattershot right now but I doubt we're in for some of these players. Mount is genuine, probably Onana.
Still going with the classic "window just opened" cope while our rivals get their ins and outs done?According to the caf the window should be closing in 3 days. Any ‘well run club’ should have all their ins and outs done by then, and the remaining two months are a complete waste waste of time.

City announced Kovacic an hour or so ago.Up to 27 completed transfers so far in the Premiership, with one team making 6 of those.
None for City completed. None for Arsenal, One for Newcastle, Two for Chelsea, one for Spurs.
Yeah, still nothing to worry about despite the histrionics on here.
Caicedo, Onana will be done by 10th July.
Cool, so that's 28 confirmed.City announced Kovacic an hour or so ago.
Another good player James Maddison out of reach off to Spurs a non CL side, seriously wtf are we doing? this stalling on the ownership crap has to end ASAP.
Made worse by this on Twitter today. Rubbing salt in an already terrible wound.
June 29th & a player who plays in the same position as our best player.Another good player James Maddison out of reach off to Spurs a non CL side, seriously wtf are we doing? this stalling on the ownership crap has to end ASAP.
Again, it’s June. We will sign players. We’ve signed as many players as your lot have ffs!Man Utd has the most revenues amount EPL clubs. No idea why they are quiet on transfer. They need a striker, a goalkeeper and a CM the very least.
True. Probably another CM and another ST as well.Man Utd has the most revenues amount EPL clubs. No idea why they are quiet on transfer. They need a striker, a goalkeeper and a CM the very least.
Is this the dullest summer yet? Everything is in limbo. Not even the rumours are exciting

The 1951/52 summer was far more boring than this. People here really have short memories and it shows.Is this the dullest summer yet? Everything is in limbo. Not even the rumours are exciting
