He is far better than dumb Delap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have a real shuffle & sell both if given the chance (Everton are interested in Delap).

For me he’s way too risky to hand some monster contract even with no transfer fee. Our big CB signing needs to be a really composed, really mature Thiago Silva like player who can command the defense. Konate certainly isn’t that.

Liability yes, and his attitude stinks, but at least Jackson can score double figures in a season which is more than Delap could manage. The reason why I wouldn't mind sparing money on a decent forward is the hope that they at least invest in good defenders.

Liam Delap - Detailed stats | Transfermarkt He did that while playing for a side which got relegated. We actually need to prioritise something this summer - CB's or attacking options. Enough of subpar players just filling up spaces at this point. Edited Saturday at 22:51 by LAM09 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't really have a defender to build the defense around other than Reece (but he has his own injury issues to deal with). If Cucu goes (which is likely), that leaves us with Hato - Wes - Reece.

Barcola also there at LB/LWB, but agreed. Backline needs rebuilding. Hope these clown car directors don't pin all their hopes on a returning Colwill. His long term fitness (and form) is still in question, and the rest of the CBs are squad level at best. We need at least one starting quality, reliable CB that can start most games (not too many next season anyway). Not sure where that target is going to come from, but we will need one.

Even if Alonso decided to go with a 3 atb formation I think it is between Lacroix and van Hecke. They are in their mid-20s, have few years of experience in the PL, seem ready for the step up.

In other news, I see Rafael Leão is asking out of Milan finally and I see lots of Chelsea fans on social media wondering if we should go for him. Gonna be honest, if this was 3 years ago or something I would’ve been on my knees begging the club to get him at all costs. But I haven’t even heard his name in ages so I assumed he completely fell off. The hype around him died a while ago. kexik 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
