Engineering masterclass but time for a footballing one.

Not sure Nuno and Footballing Masterclass are natural bedfellows

🤣 I'm hoping for miracle. The only thing different is Paratici. The future of the club seems precariously in his hands. That's a lot of power.

In my opinion we are 3 players away from top 4.

CB: although I think Rodon Romero could be strong
AMC: Lo Celso maybe
AMR: Desperately needed unless Son moves to the right and Gil plays left.

Too many maybes...glad international week is done. Team needs to settle.

I agree mate.

Each of those positions needs quality so you are probably looking at another £150m at least.

But we can also move on the likes of Sanchez/Winks and maybe Dele or Lucas/Bergwijn, may be even DNombele and replace them with better, so you'd hope to raise half that money with sales. Its do-able over the next 2 windows

You don't think we need a DM or a B2B midfielder? Our only tackler in midfielder is Skipp. He is one yellow away from a ban.

Buying two attacking thinking players still weakens the midfield. Between GLC and Ndombele we don't need another AMC. We are covered already unless one is sold. We only have two CM's (not including Winks obvs).

Desperately need another CM to lighten the load on PEH and Skipp. If we have another then the three of them can rotate. Baffles me when fellow fans think the answer the our problems is another AMC.

Also between Son, Berg, Moura and Gil the wings are covered. A more pressing matter is a back up striker.

looks like such a faff!

On a more serious note, how much are we earning from this NFL bollix ?

I reckon a couple of million for each game, concert or event. We only recieve income from food and drink, stadium hire and a cut on merch.

So for arguement sake, you could say £2m per event( it could be more). 16 events(max) that's £32m+ but the potential of a naming rights partner to have exposure to all the Prem and Cup games plus NFL and other events is worth £25m a season in Levy's eyes. He might want more who knows?

Not sure of game by game earnings, think Levy wants to get his meat hooks into a UK NFL franchise of some sort rather than just the odd game.

we have a 10 year, minimum 2 game contract currently.

I've always maintained Palhinha would be a good fit but yellow cards aside. Are you suggesting we sign a starting DM to play alongside Skipp ans Hojbjerg or a squad player like Nandez of Cagliari?

Times ticking on the naming rights then. Brand is missing out on these games and all the memorabilia post game for NFL

I'm saying we need a player who is better than both of them to come in to raise not only both their games but to give us a real midfield enforcer to allow the full backs to bomb on and he can mop up if an attack breaks down and recycle the ball. Also, to add protection to the CB's.

It's ridulous we only have to two out and out CM's who can be relied on. GLC could play there but is better as an AMC. I actually think Dele could cover them two given the chance, as he is no longer an attacking threat but ideally we need a Fabinho, Rodri, Ndidi, Rice, Phillips, Kante type of player there. All the best teams have one.

Here's your midfielder, had his ups and downs but has been a key player in the French Champions..........

Lille president Olivier Letang has revealed that Portugal midfielder Renato Sanches, 24, will be allowed to leave the club if a big offer is submitted in January.
