Although some of the defending left a lot to be desired. He looks decent.
Still would be a risk as he hasn't played in England before and would need time to bed in.
I don't think we have that luxury.

8mil plus hemed I think would tempt them
About time we sign an Italian. Preferably a striker.
That's the spirit.

One for the future but I'd like to see us go for Joe Worrall - the Forest centre back (not the old ref from the Wirral). Thought he looked a good prospect when they beat us at their place.

I think Lucas at Liverpool is out of contract this summer, he would be a great signing on a free.
Apparently we only need to sign a couple of quality players, which with our unique team spirit, will see us stay up comfortably.
PL fullbacks beware, Skalak is coming.

No wide men!?
Everton's forum have been confident that Sigurdsson will be their player for months. £25m fee and their billionaire owner can afford to subsidise his huge wage demands.
Yes, he's an exceptionally good PL player.

Reuban Loftus-Cheek (Chelsea) on season long loan.

I would spend £4 million max as it's another flyby one season wonder....just Don't rate him regardless of his great season.

No one mentioned Ulloa? Sign him as upgrade on Hemed (who we'd get a fee for) + Abraham on season long loan and that's the front 4 sorted for less than nett £10m...
yes we need to remember who we are PREMIER LEAGUE!! His current club are CHAMPIONSHIP!! Why wouldn't he come closer to his London roots on a new adventure in a lovely city instead of a smoggy dockyard.? No idea what he is thinking!

You bet!
Friend from Midsbro might suit us. We need to back up Bruno, and I totally agree with re-signing Stockdale and Stephens if possible. A pacey addition to the strikers would be good, but every team looks for that all the time. This is where the recruitment team earn their corn. I look forward to a coup similar to signing Vicente......
Coutinho, Bolaise, Rashford, Hazard, Arnautovic, Lanzini, versus Bruno, ONLY ONE AT A TIME = Goodnight Vienna.
Bruno is a great servant, but the PL will be unforgiving.
I'd like Michel Vorm if Stockdale is leaving. Not sure if he'd be up for losing his comfy spot on the bench earning a load at Spurs though.
We should definitely be looking at Shane Long as well; looks like he may be available in the Summer.
There are some quality older (more experienced) players that are out of contract in June that are perhaps unlikely:
Pablo Zabaleta
Benoit Tremoulinas
Keisuke Honda
Fernando Torres
Miguel Veloso
Yeah, I've played too much Football Manager over the years. In summary, I think it's too early to tell what is realistic and what isn't...

Long's a good PL player with great pace and stamina, a nuisance to defenders, but lacks goals these days.

If we signed Honda and did a pre season in Japan our profile there would go through the roof. I reckon we'd make the money back in shirt sales alone.
