This makes no sense to me at all.

What problem are we trying to solve here? Scudetto is out of the picture so the focus is finishing in the top 4.

Vlahovic returns in March(?) and will leave on a free transfer, so he will be super motivated to attract suitors, which should result in scoring goals for us. Jonathan David can continue to fight for his place in Spalletti's system. We only play with 1 striker. Openda can also play some minutes there until senior manglement decide what the fuck to do with that bloke. No comment on Milik.

Mateta has no resale value and IMO isn't the answer to our problems in the short or long-term. For a club supposedly short on money this operation is ridiculous.

Roma have signed two strikers to solve their striker issue.Similarly David and Openda are just not good enough we desperately need a striker whether Mateta is the answer only time will tell.

I can only speak for him as a Palace player, hes the wide man of a 3-4-2-1 system. Cant say I've ever seen him play RB otherwise.

Munoz started out as CB, then became RB, and now right wingback, each with the tactical changes of the coaches. He is used wingback purely due to tactics, not fit alone.


He is quite versatile. He is tenacious fighter, not that technical, but eager to fill the gaps. Solid defensively.


He is more of a Lichtsteiner type than a that outright super attacking technical wingback/wide mid. Relentless road runner, insane work rate and ferocious engine like platstyle.


He is prolly top best RB in EPL with Reece James/ Timber.

March or April being mentioned. Don't count on Vlahovic anymore....

They want David, why don't we just loan swap them to try until end of season

And talk about transfer of both players in the summer

We need to anticipate David and Openda highly probable going to World Cup. If they have good campaign with the NT we can sell them for a fairly fair sum

Mateta too probably with the Deschamp connection if he join us

his numbers isn't even good. doesn't have resale value. where did they find this oaf?
23/24 19 G 6 A
24/25 17 G 4 A (Olise sell)
Current 10 G 2 A (Eze sell) (still half a season) at current rate he will reach his usual number for 3 years

The numbers is in all competitions, this numberi s pretty good considering he play for mid table EPL club

I will take him for his sale value at the summer (around 15-20m) cause he will be free in 2027. Probably give around 3-5m as loan fee if we want to get him now. He offers something David and Openda not

And at the end of season I will wait to loan/ sell 1 of David or Openda and get the first #9, maybe Kolo Muani as his numbers even worse than this oaf which is 2 goals in all competition and he play on the same division

But we know he works for us, maybe it's the food

We better just gamble and get Rayan from Vasco Da Gama

19 years old, 25m valuation by Transfermarkt. 185cm (6 ft2) is pretty tall for me. Don't know if he can still grow, take a risk sometime

Bayern, Real, Dortmund, Bournemouth,PSG, Barca have an eye for him, with Bournemouth leading the line, I think Bournemouth is one of that data driven club that of data driven club that buy cheap players to sell them for high profit

Huijsen, Zabarnyi, Kerkez etc, fuck team balance for them, money talk, they got a new backline lol
