(think that's a pretty reasonable minimum standard for any signing as our CBs are poor af) Hato is left back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mhsc 1,098 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 (edited) I honestly don't think we have any choice but to keep buying these high potential kids. Tiny stadium, poor (or often none) sponsorship deals, no CL football in years - we're only surviving from a PSR perspective through loopholes (some of which don't work in CL fair play rules, and all of which when played once cannot be played again) - we need to keep buying & selling TONNES of players as it is our only hope of generating enough income to cover how badly run everything else is. And the other problems will take a decade to fix probably. When you look back at it we have been a really badly run club for 10 years+ now, let so many other teams catchup and overtake us through essentially negligence and repeated short term-ism.

Blue Armour 4,448 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 If the Liverpool game showed anything, we still need a dominant quality CB for next season. Van Dijk was winning headers in our box with little challenge today. Colwill and Chalobah played good, but there are levels to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van Dijk was winning headers in our box with little challenge today. Colwill and Chalobah played good, but there are levels to this. Tbf, within the known media, at CB, we are looking to sell Trev (anyone that goes £30m+ - possible), Disaster (Villa), Fonana (loan) and Badi. If all of those actually go it means an overhaul at CB is coming. Equally, Law was saying we were the team that was most likely to pick up VDV if he left the Dippers. All we have got to hope is that BlueCo have realised CB requires fitness (ruling out Fofana) and experience ( the rest- bar Colwill.) My hope is that we can flush Badi to Strasborg ( he is OK when not pressured so a good season at Strasborg raises his value), Fonana to Marsailles (he is a crock), Disaster to Villa and go again. For me, Colwill shows signs of a top CB - even if he is currently raw. if we can get that Huijsen plus another experienced CB (30+) we would be much better next season - so long as we do not have "big Rob" in goal. Trev is really the only loss as I do think as a HG he is worth more than £30m and is underrated as a squad player. However, if he needs to go to make it work for a Huijsen and a top quality 30+ CB, I can accept... Edited May 4 by King Kante Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, anyone see today and how we controlled midfield with Lavia on and didn't want themselves silly with Caicedo's penalty win - but forgetting VDV's header to get them back in the game?

He is a good player but has played in counter attacking teams. He has improved his output this season but generally does not score enough goals and for the fee Forest would want, I would be surprised if City pursued him. Yes for the HG thing would make sense, but everything else you would think they would pursue better players imo. OneMoSalah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree completely. He looks like your stereotypical “big fish in a small pond” English player who looks very good at a smaller profile club where everything revolves around him but will then disappear at a club where expectations are sky high and you’re just another cog in the machine. I’d be delighted as a rival team if City go for him instead of Wirtz for example who I thought for sure Pep would go after. LAM09 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
