I’m quite pleased so far. Four players gone, none of whom would feature in a full strength first team squad and freeing up some wages and space for some new faces. Hopefully two quality, long term signings who will immediately compete for first team selection.

Never really given a proper run of games, so not sure how we can judge too much. Personally, I think he's got the goods and with some confidence would be a great striker. Time will tell.

It’s not.puncheon may have made a few appearances in the last 5 minutes of games .
Williams would rarely make the bench and never come on.
Sorloth would make the bench sometimes and get a few sub appearances.
Mutch would never make the bench.
Kirby obviously isn’t considered to be ready and is being sent away to get games.

Passing on Solanke was definitely the right call for where we are now. That said I’d like a different option up front.

Maupay is the one who interests me most. He seems to offer more mobility than we have. I also like the idea that he’s youngish and may have done resale value!

I know Roy is a fan if prem experience but I’d like to see us develop more players. It may be wrong think but it bugs me that the only two players I can recall us turning a profit in are Gayle and Bolassie. Part of our financial strife is down to our lack of outward sales. I don’t like it but teams in our position do need to be able to turn some form of income from sales.

On Maupay I think he could be the sort of player who adds something new to our attack and could be a sound investment. I just don’t know what the price might be. If he came in at 12-14 then I’d say yes.

Thanks.

Silly of me to forget Murray but I would have sworn - wrongly - that we gave Jedi a free.

That still only adds about 10 mill to the transfer profit. It seems very thin pickings.i suppose that it comes down to our eternal relegation battle dictating safe transfers of hard bitten players with prem experience.

Good Information but I have an idea tat would free up some wages but probably nor get much cash for him and that is to get rid of Benteke. He's not done anywhere enough to prove himself a good buy. In fact I think he's a lazy ***. The longer he stays out the better. However, the dismal approach with regard to Solanke is rediculous. How about spending cash on players like him (No doubt he will score against us for Bournemouth) instead of 100 mil on a Championship stadium. Players will keep us up not Glass and bricks
