Senesi, Sven Botman or Micky Van de Ven? Edit - Oops. Botman just signed a new contract Edited January 15 by Strike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mhsc 1,146 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 1 minute ago, Pizy said: At his best he’s a fantastic player for sure. But he’s also a total liability in transition and defensively. Situations he’ll constantly be put into in this league. Having someone with great mobility in there instead of him would make us a better team I feel but it has to be someone of high quality like Wharton. Would’ve said Baleba as well but I haven’t really heard his name at all this season after he was awesome last year. When Palmer is finally fully fit again I don’t see how we can play him and Enzo together and get the absolute best out of each. It would leave Moi and the defense too exposed against any decent team. He's not a total liability at either, although he doesn't excel at them for sure, he has a bunch of excellent characteristics that make up for it. He's a special player. He also can and has played alongside Palmer, who by comparison btw has massively regressed and seems to be getting worse over time, having been quite bad on average for a full calendar year at this point. In comparison, I see Caicedo and Enzo playing consistently at a high level and only improving as time goes on. Of course, it is all pointless if Enzo actually wanted to leave, and wants to go somewhere stable-ish that just churns out titles like PSG. If that's what he wants and the PL/Chelsea is not for him then I'd let him go over a player that wants to be here. But that's just paper talk at the moment.

OneMoSalah 9,105 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) 27 minutes ago, Vytis33 said: Still no timeframe for Lavia return Should be the first midfielder to go this summer. Then if we get our money back or more for Fernandez, him as well. Not physically or positionally good enough, technically as good as they come, goal contributions have been good the last 18 months but it’s like playing with 10 men without the ball. Every time. As someone said, he’s decent but thats about it. Still couldn’t tell you if he‘s a 6, 8 or 10. Slower league he would maybe look like a world beater but again, the athleticism and pace coming back into football, I don’t know you’d just run off him for fun because he has no chance in hell of catching you. Also if he is considering his future like being reported, then just do it because for £106m he really hasn’t been value for money as such. Club is in a strong position with the 18 year contract/ whatever he’s on too. Last season was his best season for us but still asking the same questions which says that he isn’t likely going to become this all round world class midfield dynamo he was prophesied to be by many after 6 months at Benfica and 1 World Cup. PSG links are strange though, don’t see why they would want him when they have Vitinha, Joao Neves, Fabian Ruiz, Senny Mayulu, Zaire-Emery already?

Real Madrid have a buy-back clause on Nico Paz for only 10m euros (it was 9m euros in summer 2025) this coming summer (2026), which they have now said they will use that said, IF they do want Enzo, we could demand Paz be included as makeweight but I have to add, Paz is not really a CMF, he is more of an AMF/winger hybrid (I can see him playing CMF in the future perhaps, so there is that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mhsc 1,146 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Surely we go for Guehi, and maybe push Tosin out at the same time. One guy we can maybe sign reasonably cheap (or free on an agreement to start in summer), and another guy we got for free (I think) we can surely sell for a small bit of cash. That would be a proper and standard Clearlake manoeuvre. I really like Murillo if he was available at a sensible price but NFO are a bit of a nightmare so I wouldn't really expect much there. Music to my ears to hear talk of us actually looking at some of our fundamental problems for once. kexik 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 19,282 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I see Senesi’s name being mentioned on Twitter. He has really impressed me this season including against us. He’d probably be the best possible profile for a midseason CB. Perfect age in that he’s late 20’s so highly experienced but not too old, he’s fully settled and used to the PL so could slot straight into the team with minimal adjustment, and there probably wouldn’t be an issue once Levi returns because he’s not a youngster. As a short to medium term signing I think he’d be great. Maybe get a solid 3 seasons out of him. Great with the ball at his feet, good passing range, aggressive and assertive. Probably wouldn’t cost too much either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,772 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Tosin ain't going anywhere, he's seen as a leader and his feet are right under the carpet at this club Senesi, Guehi or Murillo, any of them, just no to any more young up and coming shite from european leagues, I want PL experience ready to slot straight in OneMoSalah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDA 10,244 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 As much as we need a cb i haven’t been watching Sensi or Guehi to see of they are any good but Sensi has defo stood out whb watching highlights … nothing spectacular though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,772 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Maybe nothing spectacular but right now a decent CB would go a long way, our CB's are absolute garbage right now. Tosin and Benoit are as bad as they come, Trev isn't much better and Fofana is just a ticking time bomb. Get a new CB this window, get Colwill fit and back at it and it's a big step in the right direction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
