Lewis O‘Brien in as well, one more round peg in a round hole.

One or two more to complete the starting XI, then it is a matter of padding out the squad and options for the bench.
We're getting there!

By my scientific estimates Bonfire, the current total is absolutely f***ing loads.

Scarpa as well in January

John Robertson
Scarpa could be amazing but he's being kept under the radar slightly. Olympiakos may well bomb the champions league in the next week and if so i wouldn't be surprised if we agreed a fee with Palmeiras and brought him in immediately.

4 more needed for me, although we could feasibly get away with actually starting the season with just one more (CAM) if we really had to.

I'm getting greedy now, I want MGW, Lingard, Vranckx and Dennis
but would settle for Cornet, Mangala and Camara.

I assume Toffolos arrival means it’s bomb squad for Ioannou.

What does this take the spending to, about £70m in fees?

It looks like a side with a fighting chance…

Mr Realistic
Yep with strict instructions to plant some class A drugs in Harry Arter's kitbag...
Omar Devone Little
Mr Realistic
From the rough figures we've been given i think although someone might correct me somewhere...
£17m Awoniyi
£15m Williams
£8m Niakhate
£10m O'Brien and Toffolo
£5m Biancone
£8m Richards
£2m Aguilera
Roughly £65m without throwing in a fee to take Henderson on loan

Really starting to take shape now...
1 quality midfielder and attacker added and then we have 1 premier loan space free and I would expect that once 25 man squads are announced that we will have a couple of good loans (1 home, maybe 1 abroad) in to complement things further.
We are definitely giving ourselves every chance this year, if the performance on the pitch matches the recruitment, then we are starting to look good for the premier campaign ahead

I'm wondering how the 25 man squad will align with Cooper's training model, which he recently said works on a basis of 20 first team players and was used as justification for bumping Lolley down to the U23s... Do 5 players get a day off?
