Right then lads and lasses.
I've got some time to babble some PISH so been trawling the gossip sections and rumour mills.
Obviously this won't happen however my ideal summer would go as follow.
I've not gone for the totally ridiculous like M'Bappe etc kept it to players we've been linked with or have a slim chance of signing.
As much as I'd love Osimhen swapped with Wissa that just ain't gonna happen, for example.
I'm also working on the premise that we need to replace.

a total 11 players needed. I'm also constraining my choices to players that make sense within the NUFC model. Not the likes of Vlahovic on 400k Euros a week etc. Personally, I have no interest in this profile of player at all in reality. We've seen all that before. Patrick Kluivert turned up at NUFC and just cashed his cheques. Owen the rat, likewise.
I have no interest in that. My targets are players who are up and coming, hungry, ambitious and angry for success.
If you should player that fit a different model please add justifications for your choices to develop the debate in the thread. Thank you very much.

That would be a spectacular youthful squad with vast potential.
It won't happen, won't even come close.
A few leaders in there too. Costa the keeper, Captain of Porto, Casado Spain's U-21 captain & Barca 'B' Captain.
Ewen Jaouen almost signed already a very smart bit of business by the club for France's future No.1. Pleased to see it!
This summer's personal obsession signing - Gonzalo Garcia. That kid is a proper All round No.9 Pure class. Reminds me of Raul with hints of a Youthful Shearer. That would signing would be elite!
The 3 Spaniards in general, Casado, Garcia & Munoz would be elite future star signings.
Garcia - Obsessed.
Casado - Proper DCMF reads the game, tackles, intercepts, breaks up play, elite passing, leadership and teamwork stats
Munoz - has played a lot on the Right too so super flexible and delivers in either position.
Mounguengue is a dark horse, on a free, bags of potential. If I were Ross Wilson I'd sign him if only for the resale potential. Ship Osula for 30+ mil. This kid Mounguengue is levels above him already. He will be a future star.
Viery a future CB for Brazil. Excellent break out season in his homeland. Succession planning for Schar's departure next season and ideal to push Thiaw over the coming seasons.
Guela Doue & Fresenda - Doue is the PSG star's bro, massive potential and a solid first teamer in Ligue 1 this season. Solid with massive upside. Fresneda has been linked for a while, again a great player with loads of potential. These two added to the RB position gives flexibility to push Tino & potentially facilitate him playing at left back to challenge Hall.
Tino with less pressure puts in an excellent season next year and the club moves him on for top top dollar.
Salinas - cheap, massive potential, a superb 2nd choice to take some weight of Hall's legs and mix it up with Tino swapping flanks.
Christos Tzolis - at 24 the lad's really come of age. Brilliant under rated LW, he's ready for that step up and with a lot of European experience.
Fernandez-Pardo - Flexible, plays left and CF. Would be a superb foil for Woltemade.
So that's my ramble. That's the choice. No clue how much, don't care it's all just a bit of fun.
