Marcal will play left centre back in the back 3.

Saiss is the one losing his place.

Will Marcal even start at all? He’s a 2 million signing who wasn’t a regular at Lyon. Squad depth maybe?

Brilliant

I had been thinking of leaving Vinagre out of my gw1 team with the new signing to see how they will line up, think this has convinced me.
I wouldn't be running to start him in Gw 1 or 2 anyway (sheff utd. and more so man city).
if he isn't a starter, he could be a transfer waiting to happen for gw3.

Less so the case with Justin at Leicester.

I want to be using my early transfers on big hitters in attack (Man United and City) and not on 4.5 defenders.

Callum Wilson has joined Newcastle

Laporte and Mahrez have Covid

Wilson is honestly starting to tempt me, depending on his price. Fraser looks set to sign too. With Fraser/ASM/Almiron as a supporting cast, you'd expect him to bag a few goals

Vinagre hasn't been mentioned on Sky's transfer centre feed. Could just be a case of some scouts throwing his name around because Wolves signed Marcal. Marcal looks like more of a squad player though, like mentioned, and Wolves are still pretty thin on wide defensive players, so I don't think we need to panic just yet.

Had a look at him a few days ago bar his one great season he has been pretty poor throughout his career.

Not denying he'd be a punt. But he's at that age now - 28 - where strikers often have their best seasons. Let's see what price he comes in at. 7m is my guess

O ya I was considering him myself no doubt was just kinda shocked when I saw how bad he was others seasons. So said I'd mention it.

Newcastle certainly look like they have a lot of pace now be interesting to see what Bruce can do with them

Not ideal for them to have a Monday game in that respect

Ampadu going on loan to Sheff United.

He is not in the game yet as far as I can see, so there is a chance to raise his price now, and also change his position. I think I remember him being a defender the last time around, but could play midfield for Sheffield United.

Lundstrum 2.0 would be great.

A penny more than 6.5m and I’ll have zero interest.

extra gravy

Looks like Wolves are in for Alex Telles. 11 goals and 8 assists from left back last season though 8 were pens. Would be a top signing.

I think 6.5m is the sweet point with Wilson and would be somewhat tempting. Not sure how much stock you can put into it and even if he's fit to be thrown in but the fact it's West Ham 1st up would be a +. His record against them is pretty decent.

It's been a long time though since a Newcastle striker turned up any trees. I guess Perez a couple of years ago did alright but think he was a good bit cheaper.

Will be interesting to see how Newcastle do shape up next year as they have brought in some more depth albeit them coming off pretty shocking seasons
