Tubestationatmidnight Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Loan for Oxford. Feasible and would be a good signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 If we've got the money I don't even think it's that much of an unrealistic signing tbh. If he signs for one of the others mentioned, he'd likely be loaned out to lower Premier League clubs/Championship clubs for 2-3 years, he'd be just as well coming here for 3-4 years where he'd likely be a starter from the off pretty much and would be a regular in the Premier League by the time he's 18-19.

joeyt Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Would he really be a starter from the off? I know our defence isn't the best but a lad who's 17 and played 7 games is going to waltz in front of Lascelles and Mbemba Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 He's a defensive midfield player isn't he? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 He's a midfielder I thought, aye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Well he's played centre back throughout the U21 season for West Ham Also played centre back the last time he started for West Ham Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Transfermarkt has him listed as CB first, DM second. Played exclusively at CB for the U21s, split time between CB and DM for the senior team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty__mag Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 If he's a DM all day long upgrade on Colback. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Even if he wasn't 'first choice', you imagine he'd get about 30 appearances if he can play in both roles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M1tche Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Watched Oxford in their Europa league games last pre season and he was class in the games I went too, would be our 3rd best CB (if lascelles keeps his form up) and would definitely be an upgrade on Colback, he looked to be organising loads for someone so young as well.

Yorkie Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 We didn't make a permanent signing until September last time we went down, and even that was Lovenkrands who was basically already there. Dunno if I'm getting at anything here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Besides it's June, hardly anyone has bought at this stage. No point even thinking about it for at least another month yet, if we get players in before then? great but tbh i'm not even thinking about this stuff yet.

mrmojorisin75 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I'd like to see more rumours popping up about getting rid of some of the utter shit and shithouses in the squad. Would rather see bairns playing than the likes of Riviere again. Get them gone, start again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno if I'm getting at anything here. yeah but that was a chaotic summer with everyone focused on is the club sold yet every day. And we also signed Simpson on loan before that which was basically a permanent signing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really hoping for a decent cull like, find it hard to believe that as good as he is he'll be able to work with some of that shit still hanging around sticking up the place. Though I suppose the theory they'll just be that much better than everything else down there... not convinced personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
