    Another big L for Mandy and Gerds. Starting to worry now; if they thought we were being ripped off before, try going into the last week of a transfer window with everyone knowing you’re gasping for a center-back.
  2. I quite like Nat Phillips (not enough to go back and forth with posters and get roasted for it ) but there’s no getting away from the fact that he’d be a massive downgrade on Botman and Carlos. Loved this from him though.
  3. Linked under Ashley iirc. Not sure how good he is but that fact alone makes this not particularly exciting.

    As much as I like Carlos, they’ve seemingly fucked us about or at the very least wasted our time. Hope we don’t deal with them again. Petty? You bet.

    Diego Carlos

    Could be, but I don’t think it’s fair to use the fact that he’s forged a great relationship with his cb partner as a stick to beat him with. He’s a very classy defender, a calming presence at the back and a good leader from what I’ve seen. Also, in our position there’s something to be said for a guy who can just show up and do a job immediately with a limited settling-in period. Not sure why people here don’t seem to rate him .

    He’s very good; reads the game very well, a capable passer and a good pro. Top class might be a bit overboard on my part though, apologies.

    As someone who’s watched him a lot, Carlos is very, very good.

    Top class is probably a bit of an exaggeration but I’ve seen enough of him to suggest he’s a very very adept PL defender. Hoping that Burnley’s financial situation and the fact that his contract is up soon means we can get him for 20-25m.

    No idea but I’d certainly hope so, with his contract running out in the summer.

    I like DC too to be fair, so there.

    Known quantity and a top class defender, leaves us more money to buy another cb too.

    Might be a bit less exciting but I’d rather Tarkowski for half the amount anyway.
  13. Think I’d take Alli as I’ve no faith we’ll get another midfield option (don’t think Lingard is the answer at Cm, even in a 3).
  14. No way we get Salisu, let’s be honest.
  15. I’d be ecstatic with “just” Salisu, Bissouma (if he’s innocent) and Lingard/Alli tbh. Let alone an Lb, another cb and a striker.
  16. Sounds weird but wouldn’t want him as a left-back in a 4, almost prefer Bakker for that role (unless by grace of Allah we sign a very good cdm and then yes please, all day).
  17. Still need to win close to every other game to stave off relegation. Hoping for at least 3 points from these next 2 fixtures.
  18. He was fine. Gives us a focal point to lump forward to when under pressure and pressed okay. I have no faith in him beating a man when it’s just him vs the opposition defensive line, which is an issue though.

    Yup. Can see us competing with Villa next season for transfer targets should we stay up. Tbh I just look forward to a PL season where we’re comfortably out of that mini no-hoper league at the foot of the table.
  20. why do I feel like we’re more at risk of losing when we go ahead. Sick of this.
