And he's not in the squad for the Swedish tour, so he's definitely gone.

Not necessarily. His contract was up at the end of June but he has been photographed training at the club as he recovers from the injury he picked up last season, so he probably isn't fit enough yet to either decide on his future or to go on the tour if he wanted to.

Honestly I'm not that worried with the transfer dealings so far. We went out and got a first choice keeper in January and now we have two relatively solid backups.

We have two right backs + Kelly and Tomkins.
Four centre backs + Jach (Innis). Dann is on the tour so possibly he's back fit soon.
Two left backs + Schlupp and Riedewald (Ward).

Three out an out strikers + Wilf and Townsend who can play there when it is a straight 442.

In a 442, our wingers could be Townsend, Wilf, Schlupp, McArthur, Puncheon + young players may get a chance like Lokilo, Lumeka, Kirby. We are still short in this area I'd say though.

Centre midfield we are probably short by one as well now that Cabaye has left. Just Luka, McArthur, Riedewald + possibly Puncheon, Kirby (I won't count Williams).

IMO we need to signings, one winger who could play there in both 442 and 433 and one centre midfielder who can do a bit of everything. We really don't need to panic just yet, we clearly don't have much money after all of our extortionate spending on transfers and wages so we need to get the right players at the right price.

Tomkins is not a R/B, his normal position is C/H
Ward is a R/B and has played on the rare occasion at L/B
Wilf and Andros are wingers in the first instance,not C/F

McArthur is more centre Mid, not an out and out winger. Puncheon is not the player he was 2 years ago.

We need quality in to keep our quality players simple

 


rub a dub dub who's buying the next round in the Pub?

Looking on bright side..West Ham will have finished their shopping soon and can stop being linked to all the players we arent getting.

I am fairly sure we are waiting on RLC situation. Once that is clear we will move as Midfield is the area we most need to strengthen. IMO Wilf and Andros are not going anywhere at present, so let's keep the faith eh.

That could be a long wait. They still have their management situation unresolved and then whether Hazard stays will be a much higher priority

Real Madrid just pocketed £100 million, that won't stay long in there.
