We need the likes of Colwill to stay Absolute piss take offering just 30m.... it's because they know we are dumb enough to accept such ridiculous bids for our players.

Pizy 19,255 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Regarding Colwill, I’m sure all of you here also follow Liam Twomey on Twitter and he does raise the concern I’ve also expressed. We’ve spent an absolute fortune on CB’s this last 12 months including 2 that play in the exact sort of area Colwill does. One of which is just barely older than Levi and is very promising in Badiashile. So it’s a real headache if you’re Poch deciding which of these players starts in a season where you would have to assume rotation will be much rarer since we aren’t in Europe. And you can understand why Colwill may be hesitant to return. Badiashile is just 22 and is starting material with lots of potential. KK is at an age and on wages that make it a total waste to have rotting on the bench every week. But he has already expressed his desire to stay at Chelsea and make up for a poor season. The best solution for us is of course to move KK on but I don’t see how at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair that is almost a club record for them. My guess is they are trying to show Colwill they want him more than us and turn his head.

Has he not been a good squad player these past 2 seasons? Seems fine with his role as well, can also be an emergency RB. Given a back 4 is now on the horizon, would've made a lot more sense to part ways with Silva and try and offload Koulibaly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 19,255 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Not that I rate Trev particularly highly, but it’s probably best he stays. Azpi is totally spent and Fofana is injured a lot. We need someone who can reliably fill in on that right side. With Silva and Azpi both leaving following this next season we may need Trev. Koulibaly is the only one of our CB’s that doesn’t have an obvious role unless Silva gets a big injury and Poch is playing 3 at the back. That middle CB position is the only place I somewhat trust him in at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gundalf 806 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 We have too many CB anyway. Should also sell KK. Silva, Fofana, Badia, Colwill is enough for a back 4 mkh and Strike 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 19,255 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Firmino has looked dead at Liverpool for ages. Could hardly get a game for them. But he’s good enough for Real Madrid? What a weird transfer that would be. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
