SUPERTOON

We can pretty much rule out any signing from a foreign league being in in time for Saturday now.

He literally can’t be worse than who we have now, how would transform our attack and take the pressure of ASM. Bring him in I say.

No argument to keep Lascelles in there for me, his performances have been a disgrace and has zero leadership qualities, drop him and make Trippier captain.

Not lascelles

I said in another thread, I would feel much more relaxed about relegation if we had or get the appointment of the CEO and Sporting director right. At least then we can plan for the future properly.

He’s not implying Carlos could be smokescreen for someone else.

He’s supposedly terrible at his job so would explain a few things.

The decision not to have a sporting director in place before this window really is costing us imo.

I would have moved on from the French market by now if I was them tbh.

Doesn’t make him a bad defender

How can you not be as good as you look ? If you look good when you play surely you are good ?

Getting more than a little concerning now, Leeds game is huge it’s going to be hard to get any foreign based signings in for that game if fees etc aren’t agreed by tomorrow.

Jury out on Lewis but the other 3 I agree depending on who the CDM would be

Huge test for Howe If this deal gets as he will have to decide who to drop. Schar or Lascelles, obviously should be Lascelles but will Howe have the balls to drop his captain ? I don’t think he will.

I’ve got reservations about Carlos and if he will be able to adapt to this league tbh, but seemingly it’s him and surely can’t be any worse than what we currently have.

Hopefully ?

Duncan Castles consistently talks shit so I would ignore this one.

Not too disappointed, don’t think we could have risked it in our position
