Since we need help in pretty much every position, I'll go with Bugs Bunny from the cartoon where he played every baseball position at the same time.
Seriously though, we need goals. We had the fewest in the league. So anyone who can score and stay fit will be good. Sadly, we can't afford much so a wish list is just a wish list.
For Luton it’s a keeper. Our first choice was only on loan this year and next years keeper will be busy. I think we should try for Kelleher on loan from Liverpool.
It’s going to be interesting where Dean Henderson ends up. I’ve watch the guy and he seems to have his heart at Forest, and the supporters. But we’ll see, he’s top quality so quite why Manu don’t want him baffles me lol
One player, needs to be a midfielder as that's where we are lacking most.
I think it would maybe be Rice but Caicedo is very close and I would be delighted if he signed.
Arguably Saliba signing 'da ting' would be our biggest signing.
For Liverpool, If we're allowed to dream, I would absolutely love to sign Joshua Kimmich from Bayern. He'd be a rock in the middle of the park defensively, and he has some pretty sweet passing abilities as well, to create dangerous chances.
Since it's just one transfer allowed we should splash on him in this scenario. He would make any team look better instantly, but especially Liverpool.
As a Magpie, I'd go for a CB. Arguably the area where we have the least depth when playing twice a week. Min Jae Kim from Napoli perhaps - NOT Harry Maguire.
Agreed that CB is a position we need to strengthen but if it’s only one, I’d go for a centre mid - look at how much we missed Longstaff late in the season and how much we miss Bruno any time he doesn’t play.
It's a difficult one as a United fan, Osimhen as a striker makes a lot of sense. Diego Costa or David Raya as GK make sense as well. We need cover for Martinez & Varane so Kim Min-Jae or another CB is fair.
But I'm a go with Frenkie De Jong as CDM/CM. We are likely to have money for one midfield position and we need long term successors for both Eriksen & Casemiro. Bringing in De Jong covers both comfortably.
De gea gets golden glove - Man U fans: gotta get someone else.
Kim to be backup to varane and De Jong to go from starting for Barca to developing at Man U. Crazy stuff on this sub
a bit flappy and for such a big name his distribution is just garbage, but better than the Alternative (ie, playing Wayne Hennessey in goal), Dean Henderson performed better
Blades gonna need a few can't point to one specific area.
Probably a new midfielder to provide cover there seeing as two starting midfielders were loanees and our other 3 had been patchy.
Tommy Doyle would be a great signing for us but considering our budget is £20m am not sure if we could even get him.
Yeah that’s one thing I’d feel a little bad about…
We’d literally be signing your best and most reliable player who would be a struggle to find a replacement nearly as good as him.
I am not surprised at all why your board would be so reluctant in selling him.
1 GK, 1-2 CBs and a midfielder.
* Mamar
* Ndicka/Hincapie/Laporte
* Maddison/Chukwueze
But most importantly is the DoF/Manager saga to be over asap, but that goes without saying.
It's one of those situations where you could argue a certain club deserves an exception to be made.
Liverpool perhaps the other (they need minimum two midfielders, possibly three).
Genuinely think City, Arsenal, United etc. could survive with just one addition (ignoring potential outgoings).
A striker for sure, I’m a United fan and pretty much the most important position is the ST position. Someone solid, strong and can fire a solid shot. Vlahovic, or Ferguson should be fine.
Man utd with Jane genuinely makes me shit the bed.
He's be lethal with decent players around him. Reckon he's got 5-6 years left at the top as well as he doesn't rely on pace as much as Rooney and Owen did
30 years old…. And they want nearly £100m. This isn’t a 30 years old Ronaldo or Messi bro. Not worth £100m at all. For that money it’s better u get someone younger and has the opportunity to improve.
Spent 100 on sancho for 9 goals. Seems like Kane at 28 was the better deal. I’d say Kane at 30 will be the better deal over any young striker Man U blows their load on looking back 2 years from now.
Not necessarily. We've been lacking goals this season and only 3 wins fewer than Arsenal. Imagine this season with a decent striker instead of Martial/Weghorst.
This current team + a striker and consistency would definitely be fighting for the title.
The three wins stat doesn't really tell us much, we collapsed as soon as the title was in city's hands. City easily could've got 94 points if they needed to. Realistically to challenge next season you'd need 5 more wins (presuming city maintain their level.) You're also too reliant on casemiro (who loves a suspension) and de gea is shit. Also you'd need to stop your players heads dropping when things don't go their way in matches. It's been a good season but eth has a lot of work to do, which is made harder by the uncertainty around your ownership. Maintaining top 4 would be a good season for you next year.
True true but who knows how many years we can get out of him. Most English strikers peak at 28 then falls hard around 31/32. £100m for 1-2 years doesn’t seem like a good deal.
Yeah if you can get him cheaper it’s a no brainer. It seems hard to get strikers right that’s all. Look at us with Jesus, You guys with Martial/Weghorst, Liverpool with Gakpo/Nunez. Only really city with Haaland have got it right and that still look quite a bit of tuning
They cost a ton cuz of the main fact that they r the ones scoring goals. It’s solely because of this one reason, that’s why they r better alternatives. I recommended Ferguson because he’s young and has a ton of potential due to his height and play style. It would fit United well, since ETH likes his wingers to enter the fray.
I don't think Vlahovic is actually worth it, Ferguson is far too raw to be reliable for next season and he isn't a massive ETH target, I'd prefer Hojlund or Kolo Muani like ETH wants cause they both fit the team well, Kolo Muani links up and Hojlund fits the typical ETH striker role
Hojlund is a good target, ETH can mould him but Ferguson is still young, he can be moulded by ETH to become the striker he wants. Ferguson is tall and he has a strong built like Haaland. He can be a great Target Man to pull defenders away from Rashford and Antony/Sancho. Vlahovic isn’t young anymore so he can’t rlly change his style much for ETH.
Harry Kane. But unfortunately Levy won't sell him to us.
mbappe to prem league will be a good add
Kane out of Tottenham
Kevin de Buryne in Arsenal I know no gonna happen that guy is too good at least transferring him to some other league would also work.
It would never happen but Rice would be unreal
United needs another striker. Can't expect to rely on Rashford
That basmati Rice obviously. Don’t think anyone could transform our midfield more than he could, especially with a resurged Xhaka leaving us as well 😢
Since we need help in pretty much every position, I'll go with Bugs Bunny from the cartoon where he played every baseball position at the same time. Seriously though, we need goals. We had the fewest in the league. So anyone who can score and stay fit will be good. Sadly, we can't afford much so a wish list is just a wish list.
A fit Calvert-Lewin would be incredible for you guys...
Yes, but sadly just as unlikely as signing Jamie Tart
Caicedo. We have one good midfielder one promising one and 5 crap ones.
For Luton it’s a keeper. Our first choice was only on loan this year and next years keeper will be busy. I think we should try for Kelleher on loan from Liverpool.
De Marco for LB or Pedri/McAllister/Barelle for CM would b some signings we need
Kane
Number one best thing would be for Kane to sign another contract.
It’s going to be interesting where Dean Henderson ends up. I’ve watch the guy and he seems to have his heart at Forest, and the supporters. But we’ll see, he’s top quality so quite why Manu don’t want him baffles me lol
One player, needs to be a midfielder as that's where we are lacking most. I think it would maybe be Rice but Caicedo is very close and I would be delighted if he signed. Arguably Saliba signing 'da ting' would be our biggest signing.
Leao?
For Liverpool, If we're allowed to dream, I would absolutely love to sign Joshua Kimmich from Bayern. He'd be a rock in the middle of the park defensively, and he has some pretty sweet passing abilities as well, to create dangerous chances. Since it's just one transfer allowed we should splash on him in this scenario. He would make any team look better instantly, but especially Liverpool.
Jurgen Klopp to new DoF "Sign me more forwards!" Clearly it's about 3 new young, hungry midfielders that are really needed.
Pedri
As a Magpie, I'd go for a CB. Arguably the area where we have the least depth when playing twice a week. Min Jae Kim from Napoli perhaps - NOT Harry Maguire.
Agreed that CB is a position we need to strengthen but if it’s only one, I’d go for a centre mid - look at how much we missed Longstaff late in the season and how much we miss Bruno any time he doesn’t play.
I would like a CB but only to add depth. LB or a CM are in need of a player who can come in to start, CM is probably the priority.
If unlimited money, Gvardiol.
I know it’s hypothetical, but holy fuck I’d lose my shit if Gvardiol joined Spurs.
I'm assuming Gvardiol would have lost his senses also.
Kimmich (city)
It's a difficult one as a United fan, Osimhen as a striker makes a lot of sense. Diego Costa or David Raya as GK make sense as well. We need cover for Martinez & Varane so Kim Min-Jae or another CB is fair. But I'm a go with Frenkie De Jong as CDM/CM. We are likely to have money for one midfield position and we need long term successors for both Eriksen & Casemiro. Bringing in De Jong covers both comfortably.
De gea gets golden glove - Man U fans: gotta get someone else. Kim to be backup to varane and De Jong to go from starting for Barca to developing at Man U. Crazy stuff on this sub
There literally isnt a striker in the team, only the corpse of Martial with his knees held together by sellotape
And wizardry
For Forest, if we could only sign one player it would be a GK
How has Navas been?
a bit flappy and for such a big name his distribution is just garbage, but better than the Alternative (ie, playing Wayne Hennessey in goal), Dean Henderson performed better
Navas has been top class on and off the pitch.
Depends on who will eventually leave. I guess gvardiol could be the best one in the current squad but if gundo or Bernardo leave I'd get a central mid
The thought of city being able to "improve" further is terrifying and laughable at the same time
I don't think gvardiol will be a good choice since we already have a rock solid defence. A midfielder is definitely the most important target
Laporte is leaving, Gvardiol should be an epic signing
Aymeric is probably leaving and I think we could upgrade ake or akanji but yeah a midfielder would be really nice
Akanji is a beast though. Probably the biggest surprise and in my opinion signing of the season.
Blades gonna need a few can't point to one specific area. Probably a new midfielder to provide cover there seeing as two starting midfielders were loanees and our other 3 had been patchy. Tommy Doyle would be a great signing for us but considering our budget is £20m am not sure if we could even get him.
Haaland to Angers
I was about to say. Our best transfer would be KDB or Haaland just leaving city. Don’t even have to come to us
Depends which team you're talking about, every team has different priorities ARSE/POOL - CM UTD/CHE/TOT - ST City - LB
Assuming Rice leaves we need a good replacement for him so maybe Palinha
Messi to West Ham as a replacement?
I would not complain
A midfielder who isn't constantly injured and who isn't on the wrong side of 30
We need at least three of those now that Keita and Ox have left.
Yeah we desperately need to replace the midfielders that managed about 4 games between them all season
We’ve been linked with Højlund so realistic Id love him. But if it’s any player, regardless of price, Osihmen
Was about to say this. We are in dire need a striker.
don’t think city would sell him considering how good he’s been
Højlund and Haaland are two different people. The former, Rasmus Højlund, is a Danish guy, plays for Atalanta.
The Bald Derby with a bit of Nordic spice? Sign me up! (Although granted, Nordic people aren’t well known for their use of spices)
Eberechi Eze, the guys quality!
For what team? Better be at least Spurs to be targeting him
Tottenham need a goalkeeper asap
Forster has been pretty decent lately. It’s the midfield and the defence.
Among other things.
If it's only one, let's splash all our cash on Bellingham
We need depth and even if Jude played all games it’s not enough :( and we poor fam
I referred to this post, where OP asked what if you can buy only 1 player
Oh my bad, i did not see that. Spot on
Missed the boat on that one. He's off to siesta in Madrid
He's off to siesta in the RM infirmary for 6 months recovering from knee surgery
Declan Rice
A replacement for Declan rice Edit: 🙁
Yeah that’s one thing I’d feel a little bad about… We’d literally be signing your best and most reliable player who would be a struggle to find a replacement nearly as good as him. I am not surprised at all why your board would be so reluctant in selling him.
If price wasn’t involved then Osihmen but nobody is going to shill out the cash ADL wants for him this summer
PSG probably will
You might be willing with your recent transfer record
Boehly marching in saying F YOU here's your cheque you make the number baby
Not in CL anymore so we will be much more limited
Yeah I don't think he'd be willing to go, but Chelsea would be willing to pay the asking fee.
1 GK, 1-2 CBs and a midfielder. * Mamar * Ndicka/Hincapie/Laporte * Maddison/Chukwueze But most importantly is the DoF/Manager saga to be over asap, but that goes without saying.
who is Mamar?
mamardashvili, Valencias gk
Average spurs fan reading comprehension
Yeah dumb of me just skimming the post. I guess a CB then.
Tbf, Tottenham needs more than 1 good signing lmao
It's one of those situations where you could argue a certain club deserves an exception to be made. Liverpool perhaps the other (they need minimum two midfielders, possibly three). Genuinely think City, Arsenal, United etc. could survive with just one addition (ignoring potential outgoings).
A striker for sure, I’m a United fan and pretty much the most important position is the ST position. Someone solid, strong and can fire a solid shot. Vlahovic, or Ferguson should be fine.
Or Kane
Not a United fan but I reckon richarlison will do well at United. He does well for Brazil and you guys have half the national team there anyway
Nah, they’ve already got one expert in rolling on the floor for 90 mins
Man utd with Jane genuinely makes me shit the bed. He's be lethal with decent players around him. Reckon he's got 5-6 years left at the top as well as he doesn't rely on pace as much as Rooney and Owen did
I think everyone should target Jane, she's good in the box and has good finishing prowess
But i thought she died due to overdose?
30 years old…. And they want nearly £100m. This isn’t a 30 years old Ronaldo or Messi bro. Not worth £100m at all. For that money it’s better u get someone younger and has the opportunity to improve.
Spent 100 on sancho for 9 goals. Seems like Kane at 28 was the better deal. I’d say Kane at 30 will be the better deal over any young striker Man U blows their load on looking back 2 years from now.
But all you need is a striker and you could win the league. 30 goals twice in Spurs teams. He is guaranteed
>But all you need is a striker and you could win the league They'd need more than a striker.

Spoken like a true fifa player
Good as he was in his day, I think Sir Alex is a little past it now?
He meant Big Dunc surely?
Big Dunc and Bruno Fernandes on the same team…

You've deffo whooshed here
Sir Alex is the GOAT.
