Looks like his agent making noise because of potential interest from big clubs on him.

Wants assurances around starting position/importance and likely money to match? dunno what his current deal looks like.

Only signed a contract last year. He did make some noise then as well about whether he'd stay so not sure we can expect much loyalty tbh.

Hopefully its all nonsense and he stays. Would be painful to watch another one of our very promising defenders develop at another club while we get stuck conceding a record number of goals.

I would have thought our new manager would really want Colwill though, can play CB and a LB role where he tucks into 3 to make 3 ATB too. Has high potential in his passing game. And he's only 21.

This could be the case, but isn't he toed down to 7 years or something? For me, I wouldn't put it past Clownlake wanting the HG FFP profit.

He just got a new deal ane played a lot until his injury in fact because of his ball playing ability he'd be a nailed on starter under Maresca. This seems very callous from his agent if this is true. Bayern would have to give us near 80-90m for his services if not more.

The Colwill stuff better be bullshit. And these Bayern reporters are always spouting bullshit linking the club to everyone under the sun each window.

We shouldn’t even be picking up the phone for anyone inquiring about Colwill. He could be one of, if not THE key player under Maresca.

Isn't Plettenberg Tier 3? He has inside sources at Bayern but nothing elsewhere. Bayern have Colwill as a target if they don't get Tah, however I'd imagine the conversation Bayern reps and Clearlake have over the availability of Colwill will last fewer than 3 seconds.

If we sign Olise, surely this fraud Sterling is gone right? I don't want another season with this guy.

I'm more worried about where Nkunku and Palmer fit into this. Neither would benefit as being a wide left sided winger, and both together in the #8 positions would be very top heavy.

Yes, long contracts provide some guarantees, but as soon as big clubs show interest, it's his agent's job to ask for an adjustment depending on which tier he is. Say, he's on a rotation/backup deal, and he becomes a sure starter in D; that usually comes with an adjustment to match the new role.

Agreed tho. He's both the best CB in the squad atm as well as the most suited for the new system.

Yes, its one of the very interesting puzzles. Going to be interesting to see it play out. One argument is for Palmer to play as an 8, and Nkunku out of position sort of awkwardly on LW. Or Nkunku up top, and Jackson on the LW (perhaps also a bit awkwardly). Also, an experiment with Palmer as a false 9 would not surprise me either.

yeah if they get tah no way they will also get colwill 

edit Im reading the news again and they could also try lewill but no way we will let him go. only for a crazy bid like 100M pounds or something like this

Is there any similar midfielder to Vitinha? one of my favorite players to watch. 

Not exactly the same physicality/movement, but reckon Lucas Paqueta and him would be similar on the ball. Paqueta will likely be banned from football tho.
For the record, I think Paqueta plays better for Brazil as he plays deeper than he does for WHU.

Gut feeling he will stay at  RB Lepzig, and he will be worth double what he is now.

Hope we sign him.

Then it's his own damn fault if clubs next summer can't afford him and he wants to leave. 

Reckon he's off to Arsenal.

Caughtoffside and Fabrizio Romano collaboration.. 🤯

Let's see a video of Kaveh Solhekol drinking ayahuasca tea and talking about his transfer speculations.

Colwill’s agent needs to back off or Levi needs to clarify. 
 

 

 

Geez, I would be hammered if we ended up with Disasi, Adarabioyo, Badiashile and Fofana 😄 Make that ECL exciting.

The key player? How’d you figure that? Chances are he will play either as a LCB or LB again. If the key player in our team is going to be a LCB when you look at our squad containing the likes of Enzo and Palmer then god knows 😂

Irrespective I think it’s clear he will play a lot this season and he also played a lot last season also. If he is pushing to jump ship again (was huge speculation last summer too) after playing regularly last season then maybe we have to just cut our losses. 

He wasn’t fully convincing either when he played as a CB which I think is fair to say. He is very lucky Badiashile was a bomb scare when he did play also because if he wasn’t his minutes could of been significantly less.
