We aren't wasting money & putting ourselves in a hole with another backup option, so I understand it despite being quite surprised. Alonso was always going to remain first choice IMO.

Tomo 21,751 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 The answer is in Burnley. Dwight McNeil will be a good wingback and crucially give us some variety with our options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin123 534 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) Problem is we don't need another LB on the books. Just a temporary cover Edited January 12, 2022 by Marvin123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikkiCFC 8,319 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Why not? Kenedy offensively offers so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,319 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Kounde is much better but is he 60m better than Sule and Ginter? Because these two are available for free and all can cover RCB, even RB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Süle and Ginter are both much better, more experienced on the top level and more suited to the PL the kounde transfer will be another one in a series of bullshit decision made by the board on the basis of a lack of long term strategy.

Kounde is/was linked with Real, Barca, City, Chelsea, United... Dont see top teams linked with these two. Sule may go to Newcastle? And Ginter to Seria A. Sevilla has best defense in top5 leagues. Also Sule looks clumsy on the ball like Zouma. Edited January 12, 2022 by NikkiCFC mkh and Boycie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,907 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Kenedy is a shocking player. Not even a PL standard footballer, nevermind Chelsea quality. The very definition of a headless chicken player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDA 9,938 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 4 hours ago, Pizy said: The fact that none of the big clubs in the PL are doing much is evidence that it’s just much more difficult these days to pull of significant signings in January. You would’ve thought clubs like United, Arse, Spuds, etc who are in a knife fight for 4th would be super active trying to put themselves in pole position. But none of them are really doing anything at the moment. Liverpool lost Mané and Salah to AFCON and haven’t done anything. Unless you can target a top player whose contract expires this summer and can pay now to get him early the options are basically nonexistent. The fact that we were interested in Digne but wouldn’t even pay the £23m required to sign him tells you what the clubs’ budget is. They want a super cheap stopgap. So it’s Emerson or a loan for someone else. I think the impact Covid had on clubs financially might be something to do with it. Not sure but it seems clubs are acting a lot more stingy since and obviously the Jan transfer window was already becoming a non event before. Nobody can be asses to pay the premium.
