Time for a thread where I mostly talk to myself.
New season, new stadium.
Losses:
James Tomkins sold to Palace
Alex Song sent back to Barca (who bought him out)
Emmanuel Emmenike sent back to Fenerbache
Joey O'Brien- free agent
Stephen Hendrie- Loaned to Blackburn
Additions:
Gokhan Tore on loan w/ buy option
Sofiane Feghouli from Valencia on a free
Havard Nordtveit from Borussia Monchengladbach on a free
Arthur Masuaku from Olympiakos
Andre Ayew from Swansea
Ashley Fletcher from Man U on a free
Jonathan Calleri from Deportiva Maldonado (but really some weird shit and Sao Paolo) pending work permit
Also exercised option to make Lanzini move permanent.
Only major injury so far is Cresswell who likely misses half the season.
Probably still looking for a striker and possibly a defender.
Biggest concern to me so far is that Bilic likes playing Antonio at RB where he is not great so far.
