Why is everyone hating on Sanchez. He is a decent gk.

I know some people mentioned about selling Ian Maatsen, but I have a problem. 

If Chilwell gets injured we are stuck with Cucu. 

I much rather keep Ian at this time since we don't have a good backup like we do for James with Gusto. 

Maatsen should absolutely be extended and kept.

Yeah, I don’t get it either. With our new look midfield and a more aggressive, pressing style the goalkeeper should be under much pressure most games. So Sanchez should be more than good enough as our #1 this season.

We just played against one of the most lethal attacks in all of football with Gallagher as the DM and a defense that have literally never played a game together before and Sanchez didn’t have to sweat much after the opening 25 minutes. He had a couple of sloppy passes but that’s to be expected. He showed immediately in that first match with some catches of corners what he gives us that Kepa didn’t.

Maybe Maatsen doesnt want to extend if there is Cucu still around?

If he wants to fight for his place, he wants to extend.

After the preseason he’s just had I think Poch would request he’s kept if the board ask. If the club can find a destination for Cucu I would think Poch would rather let him leave than Ian. 

Maatsen for me has “instant regret” written all over him if we were to sell him. Has absolutely everything you want in a modern fullback. If he were to go to a smaller PL club and replicate the season he had last year with Burnley you’d have City or one of the other Big 6 offering £50-60m for him.

The club should be currently shopping Cucu around all of Europe right now. Preferably a club that we aren’t directly competing with like Newcastle.

I wouldn't be very happy about losing Lewis Hall. The kid showed more than 99% of the club last season. He has thr ability to make it.

exactly

[lucio 5,418]

£70m for hall 

[nyikolajevics 2,836]

Hall on the left, Livramento on the right in Newcastle.. Would be bit ridiculous if they thrived in the CL while we trying to find our success with Cucurella and Gusto.

Just a loan. 

Should not be sold.

Euh no!

Euh no!

no way ffs

[Bluepower777 57]

Hall is our best youth player, we shouldn't have sent him on loan, Maatsen, Cucurella is nowhere near him in ability or technic. Anyway he could have been a great centre midfielder as well. Who the hell is doing these decisions

Could work if we have a buy-back clause at £50 million or something like thst, which can be exercised after 18 months?

Let Eddie Howe (who I like) do the development of the player and then we can get a finished article and NUFC make a profit, everyone wins.

Or he flops and we have £30mill. We still win.

Id actually be gutted if Hall went on a perm or obligation to buy. 

[Mhsc 1,146]

Not sure what future Hall has here now though, where would he play? We've stacked the midfield (his supposed natural position) with expensive players and he was a makeshift LB (where we have 2 senior players + Maatsen).

Maybe he has a role here in 2-3 years if Chilly and Cucu both move on or if Maatsen leaves or moves position? I'd probably just sell him with a cheap buy back clause + huge sell on fee and we can see in the future if he makes sense to play at CFC tbh, just definitely shouldn't sell him without it or loan him to a poorly fitting club that will stunt his growth (and frankly, his future transfer value).

Why should we sell him so low tho? We made him sign 6y contract, we can ask for anything we want. Rather make it 50m and 70m buy back if we are going this way. 
also I don’t see why he can not become our long term left back. Maatsen and Hall are both better than Cucurella. So stop this BS Maatsen as winger, use him as a billy back up and when Hall comes back next year assess who is better by then.
