Dream on, we ain't going to be signing 4-7 players. We have employed a manager to improve the current players and maybe 2 signings.
Why is everyone so hung up up about getting new signings, unless they are significantly better than we have, what's the point. Satisfying supporters that believe the crap about players coming is not the plan. Many people are buying all this transfer frenzy stoked up by dodgy websites, it's laughable.

Agreed Painter,could not have said it better myself.

He's made a valid point that if we did change the system we would need 7 players, not that we should. Step back and read before arguing.

It's not valid, it's fantasy. De Boer has been employed to work with the current players and youth, how he does that is up to him.
We aren't going to be buying loads of new players.

How players do you think we require?

It's not up to me, I am not the manager, he is employed to make the call.
You need to add a bit of reality as to who we are. We could need as many as you like, but we are never going to compete with the top 6 clubs.

We are in trouble then, especially if there's some attempt to change style. Better get a good start with those easier fixtures so early. But we know how that can go....

Silk purses , sow's ears ? He is going to have to if wants to play the way he would like to.
It's the system that he settles on that will be vital.

Don't think it's about competing for top 6, more so not being in a relegation battle this season. Strengths in depth before Jan was poor, and you take out the players released and loans that expired. That's a gap of 5 players. - remy & sakho (loan expired) and 3 first teamers realised flamini, Ledley and Campbell

The ones that have gone won't be missed, especially Mandanda who you forgot about. Only Sakho, but that deal could still happen. People have been calling for youth to be given a chance, well it's coming.

Exactly. And anyway, Sam said Sakho plus 1, or no Sakho and more. The released wages make this more possible. (I had reservations over Sakho because of this reason)

Well then there's at least 3 players that need to be replaced then.

Mandanda, Sakho, Remy.

Loftus-Cheek you could argue replaces Ledley in number, but there's at least 3 there, and there are probably more we're targeting. I highly doubt we're going to rely on youngsters this season as 2nd choices. I'm not saying we'll have 22 quality players, because we only have about 15, but any youngsters will be behind those 15 + 3 or 4 or more.
