lucio 5,418 Posted January 3, 2024 Share Posted January 3, 2024 Maatsen might do well there , seems like Dortmund have good scouts. chalobah isn’t the best but I wouldn’t say he’s worse than Disasi, at least he has some pace to recover.

However, he'll have a lot of options so I can't see him agreeing to a 7 year contract and our wage structure. Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper 30,226 Posted January 4, 2024 Share Posted January 4, 2024 5 hours ago, TheHulk said: Silva has been my co-number one rated truly available (so I am not counting Ruben Dias, Ronald Araujo, Saliba, De Ligt or Marquinhos) right-footed CB for some time, along with Bremer (this coming summer 2024 is the last time I can say Bremer is perhaps truly worth BIG money, as he turns 28yo next season and it makes less sense to drop huge money in summer 2025 on a player who turns 29 in late winter of that season, most CBs are NOT like Thiago) I do wager it will be hard to get either to come here with no CL, but who knows right footed CB targets Bremer António Silva Giorgio Scalvini Jean-Clair Todibo Mohamed Simakan Ousmane Diomande Leny Yoro (18yo) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a beast of a player in there and he just hasn't been anywhere nearly as good as he was at Brighton. It is up to Poch to figure out how he should use Caicedo best. bigbluewillie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it was pretty poor squad planning to let 200+ games of experience walk out the door for minimal transfer fees and then put 200+ million into 2 talented but very young midfielders without any experience around them. I feel bad for both Caicedo and Enzo as they'll never live up to the price tags that were paid for them. When you spend 100+ million on a mid, you're expecting goals or assists or something special every single game (like a Hazard or Bellingham or even at a stretch a motivated Pogba).

It wasn't minimal transfer fees though. We were lucky to get 150 m for Havertz (65), Mount (55m when contract was running out), Koulibaly (17m) , Mendy (16m) If you add in Kovacic, CHO, Pulisic and RLC, the club raised 200m in sales.

DDA 9,941 Posted January 4, 2024 Share Posted January 4, 2024 Have to say.. I really like the look of Antonio Silva... he looks like a proper good old fashioned CB who gets the job done. None of this ball progressing shite who can't defend to save their Iives. bluesman2610 and King Kante 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been saying this with every player we sold and we've never regretted it. Good squad player but not someone I'd want starting week in week out.

Plays a variety of positions and at least has some heart it would appear. We've spent 3x the money on other players who surely aren't giving us 3x the performances. bigbluewillie and OhForAGreavsie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
