What does a win look like for Tony and Les?

[Qprtanpa1]

Beyond keeping all of our current players, Tony and Les will come out looking like they've REALLY done their jobs if the following happens:

• We are able to replace Charlie with a proven, Gayle-like striker if Man U or another suitor meets the $15m price tag
• We retain Matty, Green, Sandro and Fer -- latter two, with great natural ability, have much to prove to rekindle their careers
• We successfully sign Gabriele Angella to reinforce, if not power, our CB lineup
• We ship out both Hoilett and Traore as a signal the club has truly turned the page on mediocity

On the other hand, opinions will quickly go south if we lose Charlie without a replacement; and Matty and Green because we want to put more money in the bank.

This team IMO clearly has a shot at competing for promotion this year, and it's incumbent on management to give CR a fighting chance to prove that.

It's going to be a wild 36 hours ahead.

If we keep austin that will be a bigger win than any of the others to be honest.

A win for Tony is far from clear. For fans it is to tick as many of those boxes as possible that you have just identified - but Tony needs to weigh that against bringing in a few pound notes...

I so wished we had a 20m price tag on him from the start.
