Nah we’ll activate the option for another year for Gana

Tim is honestly nowhere near as good as Gana.

Let Gana leave by all means, go and buy a top CM.

Tim has come on leaps and bounds despite not playing a huge amount. More than happy for him and Rohl to share the minutes next season.

How are we ever going develop talent if we don't play them?

Also people keep saying buy a CM, buy a CB... It's like they don't want us to actually spend good money addressing the problems at full back and striker that we've had for years.

Yeah he has, and he’s still nowhere near as good as Gana.

Neither is Garner tbh despite the hype. night and day in how they show up in games.

I don’t think Tim will ever be ganas level and maybe not even complete enough to play prem regularly? He’s come on leaps and bounds an still can’t get a game?

No go and get a top CM who can get us playing. Then if you want the likes of Garner, Tim, Merlin to run around a lot fine.

Garner is better than Gana now imo.

He will be next season

Can't get a game because Moyes will always play the experienced player over the inexperienced... Tim's numbers suggest that given regular game time he'd be a very good player.

LB - £25m
RB - £25m
ST - £50m

That's £100m to address the most important aspects of the team... Not sure where people think we're getting the money from to also add in quality CMs and CBs. Unless people are happy to go another season without the above, which imo would be absolutely criminal.

Why is it costing us £100m to sign three players and why is that all we’re able to do?

Moyes plays the player most able to impact the game today, though following instructions or application of talent and physical attributes, vs the balance of those things.

He always has. If we had a 17 year old Wayne Rooney at the club he’d be playing at the weekend but we do not.
