Quite pleased to see Bailly has signed a new deal. If he can keep fit he's a monster!
Me too. Hope he stays fit and gets a good run in the team alongside Maguire.Him staying suggests to me that we're not signing a centre back this summer...
I’m happy with our defence

Personally I'd be keen to sell Lindelof and replace him with someone like Ben White.
I’d keep Lindelof ahead of Maguire. I know it wouldn’t happen but Lindelof is more secure. He’s made a few mistakes but all defenders do. He doesn’t make me s
t my pants every time he’s on the ball though like Maguire does. I'm the other way round. Lindelof just doesn't look like he's got the situation under control most of the time. Every now and again he will make me believe he's a top player, but mot of the time I just don't think he's Premiership standard.
Maguire isn't as good as an £80 million player should be, but in my view he's better overall than Lindelof.

Lindelof has a great eye for seeing a great pass ... and pulling them off. More recently certainly. Maguire certainly doesn’t.
But overall I think our defence is pretty solid. Maguire is a machine and the amount of minutes he plays it’s inevitable he will make the odd mistake (law of averages).
We need a young Cavani, and a Matic replacement ... love Fred for his efforts and a good solid squad player but zero threat in front of goal, a little bit cringe when tackling and can have some real poor games.
Declan rice swap for Lingaard would be nice and Kane then we are title contenders.

Realism here
Kane - I think he’d be fantastic, he’s proven in the PL and a better option than another 1 year pensioner from European league. Yes he’s getting older, yes he gets injured, but look what RVP did for us in the twilight of his career amd Kane is a long way from being that old. He will be far too expensive for us though
Haaland - never going to happen. He’s going to City if he’s going anywhere. Still unproven at PL level, but doing a great job at CL level so should be OK. Too much grief with Raiola and his monthly new contract £8m per week demands.
Sancho - is he still delivering? He seems to be going under the radar with his performances.
I do t think there’ll be much business at the high end this off season. We’ve got the Euros to contend with, plus teams won’t want to sell at a discount, nor will teams want to buy at a premium.

I think Kane would be a great signing.his scoring is second to none, works hard and also provides a lot of assists for other team mates. The issue will be the fact he has 2 years left on his contract, would want top wages and Levy would demand a huge transfer fee which would put us off.
