This is even without putting in Tim/Beto/Alcaraz
So if we believe Aznou is going and Beto and maybe Tim or Alcaraz may go too before Tuesday and fill a couple of them gaps this is how the squad could look after deadline day.
Look at the various options we could have in that squad and then cast your mind back a few seasons when we were constantly flirting around the relegation zone.
Why are their so many moaners, you would of been ripping peoples arms off for that squad 12/18 months ago.

Why is it if people have a different opinion they're moaners. This is a banter site, both good and bad, a bit like our team.
The moaners are complaining we don't want skill man to go, yet suddenly he's not that good. Work that out.

Colefc, '18 months ago' that is the past. I honestly do not see losing Ndiaye for the pitiful fee that's being bounded about for Richarlison is good business. For those who think Richarlison will bring buckets of goals, are dreaming.
The most he has mustered in a season was for us about 5 seasons ago, and that was 13. If we lose Ndiaye, fine, but at least set the stall out and demand 80 million. I would leave Richarlison well alone. Massive mistake, I believe, if we re sign him.

I agree, Witty, for me Ndiaye leaving isn’t the issue as much as the fee.
Would I have preferred to keep him, yes, if he’s happy and playing well.
Do I want to keep him if he’s checked out.. Then no!
But I don’t like the low fee for him, and why people at the club feel that is ok. I just don’t understand why the club feel that is an acceptable value.
But we move on and reset, at least with the fee we should be fully compliant under SCR.

Agree, ST, now stop moaning it's naughty.

I'm saying take your rose tinted glasses off for just a minute and see how that squad looks. I give up.

As many have posted today BMD, nobody wants Illy to go, but he has refused new contracts on a few occasions. What are you wanting to do with him, put him on the mantelpiece at Finch Farm ffs.

ColEFC, the reason you mentioned the 'moaners' is simply because sooooooooo many on here are exactly that.
It's developing into a decent squad, even though our scouts are useless, as is the board, TFG are frauds and Moyes is the worst manager.
