On a more positive note he does seem to have the potential to be a very good defender. Very good in the air. Hopefully he can build a strong partnership with Virgil. 

Yep. He does have all the right attributes - tall and fast. We have been after him for while it seems. Still worry about Gomez - I think we need another option. Either at the back or as cover for Fab.

Reckon they'll keep one of Davis or Phillips. Both are home grown so help us in that as we are pretty short on home grown players that have to be registered. We don't have to register Jones or Elliot to play them as both are under 21 at the start of next season. 

 

We can only carry a max of 17 non home grown players

The club has offered Adrian a new deal, sounds like they want to send Keheller on loan next year

 

Alisson, Adrian

Van Dijk, Robertson, Matip, Tsimikas

Fabinho, Thiago, Keita, Shaqiri

Firmino, Mane, Salah, Minamino, Jota, Origi

 

Konate makes that 17

 

Though i assume Origi,Shaqiri,Miamino might all go

[Scott_M]

Adrian will leave as well.

I can't see Davies going - seems a bit harsh. But I do wonder whether Swansea come back in for him if they win the playoff. They won't get him for £2m that's  for sure but anything near £10m if sell. He needs to play regularly.

[Lee909]

Doubt we will get close to 10ml for him. 

Clubs finances took massive hits so don't see many splashing out. Reckon we would take 5ml or so.

[El Dangerous]

In what universe are we getting £10m for Davies? I think those days are long gone. Might as well loan him out like the Chelsea Players Agency do with their 100’s of players.

[Colonel Bumcunt]

[Lee909]

Tielemans for Nabby and Origi

 

Makes sense brendan and you know it

The didn't read it properly Universe - haha - I was talking about Phillips. I agree £10m is too much but he's worth a decent fee. 

[Bad Red Bull]

Whenever I have watched Tielemans, I've seen him brushed off the ball easily. Am not convinced but haven't seen a lot of him

I’d send him up to Stevie,l on loan,  seems a good platform and he was on the brink of moving to Celtic so should cause a bit of shit.

If we still had Borini on the books it would be a goer...

Borini and wee Joe would have got the deal done

[3 Stacks]

Tielemans was average at Monaco. He could turn into Modric and I'll never rate him. I just won't. Get over it everybody.

[Butch]

This Kalidou Koulibaly lad alongside virg would be amazing, getting on a bit now though. Fab in front of those two and Allison, bloody hell. 

[joe_fishfish]

£40m-odd on Konate feels like a hell of a risk.

Well we don't have experience of signing a player from RBL for £40m+ and it being a complete waste of money.

Would you not have Karl Heinze in there instead of Karius? 

I was going for a 5 a side team but yeah if that’s not a restriction then sure KHR would be a good shout

I think he is saying Riedle would be a better keeper. Probably right.

Haha - but KHR was very good for us.

Thiago and Adama Traore named in Spanish squad for the Euros. @aRdja

Hasn’t really kicked on this season has he? Yeah probably not one of my top 3 calls ever.

Interesting that RBL are meant to fancy Kabak as his replacement. Sign him and sell him at a profit Footy Manager style.

Maybe sign him, sell him for the same price to RBL but with a buy back clause. 

If he is shit, then it cost us nothing, if he gets games and pushes on, then we get the benefit in a couple of years without his mistakes being here. 

 

Easy.
