Transfer thread

I'd give him another year. See what the next coach reckons and how he does in a higher press possession based system, where he was lots less to do.

With limited funds, there are more important areas to focus our resources on

Id rather go into next season with a better Goalkeeper and Solanke & Tel are the CF options.

Same. In any team you have to address your absolute weakest component first. That is the keeper. He is appalling at dealing with crosses and poor with the ball at his feet. Making a few good saves doesn't make up for his poor attributes (every keeper makes a few good saves).

Keepers also tend to be cheaper than attacking players. The one I listed as the best possible choice that I think we could go for is a superb keeper but would still probably only cost £40m

If we went and got a truly top tier goalkeeper the fans would be amazed by what a difference he would make to the team. Mike Maignan avalible on a free transfer from Milan. If your ambitious as a board you go and pay him £250k knowing you can offset that by getting £50M+ in for Vicario and Kinsky.

Even ter Stegan for 2 seasons would be a huge upgrade.
 
IMO it would make perfect sense for us to loan him out against next year. It is all really good experience at his age. At the very least he is likely to increase his resale value.

It would make sense for us to loan out a lot of our players. But Tel brings more positives to the team than Vicario does at this point.
