Rich Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 If we hadn't wasted £24m on Diame we wouldn't have to be making deals like this. However, it's clear Rafa wants him so let's see what he's got. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Buying backup for our problem left-back position. Also gives us a more attacking option if we want to play 5 at the back. Seems pretty sensible to me. Save our money for the main problem areas - goalscoring and creativity. So is he a winger or a left back? I wouldn't have minded this going through in the summer, just not convinced he's going to be what we need in a relegation battle. Same goes for Ings who is the other realistic possible signing mentioned. I think he's predominantly a winger but has played at left-back/wing-back. I assume that's where Rafa is looking to use him. The Ings link makes me a bit uneasy as well. He was a decent goalscorer before his injuries but he's a bit of an unknown quantity now. Seems like a risky move when we need someone proven and ready to hit the ground running When you hear names like Sturridge and Luiz mentioned as possible loan moves, you get a lift and a genuine feeling that we could shoot clear of the relegation spots comfortably. Ings and Kenedy doesn't have that effect to the same degree does it? Of course not However one is realistic and the other is fantasy land. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altamullan Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Have I missed a memo somewhere? Lejuene seems to have gone from being perceived very positively to being seen as shite. I wish he would learn not to head the ball to the opposition, but other than a couple of gaffs I haven’t noticed anything deserving of a Williamson slur.

geordiedean Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 I often wonder the ages of some people on here because they have either never seen a decent centre half play for us or they are just so biased and blinded by anyone who plays in black and white that they think they are a great player Im sorry but Lejeune is absolutely fucking hopeless and for anyone to think hes decent is staggering. Hes not even in the same league as Titus or Andy OBrien man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks pretty good bringing the ball out of defence, he's not bad in the air, he makes good interceptions and he's not Mike Williamson (did I mention that already?). He has looked shit positionally at times, he's made a couple of rash challenges and he not exactly lightning quick. The first two of those weaknesses can be improved through coaching.

To mask a lack of pace though you need to be good positionally, it's kind of a huge issue if you mark both those things down as major weaknesses. I'm not convinced by him at all yet, not willing to say he's Mike Williamson however just yet, but we have better options in the squad that Rafa should be selecting, while we wait for Lejuene to adapt.

I'm not convinced by him at all yet, not willing to say he's Mike Williamson however just yet, but we have better options in the squad that Rafa should be selecting, while we wait for Lejuene to adapt. Positioning comes through coaching to a large extent. It also comes through communication - funny how Lejeune looked like a much better defender in the game against Arsenal alongside our most vocal player. Get a good, vocal keeper in there as well and he'll be better again. You have to remember this guy has only had what, 10 games in the Premier League?! I'd say CB is arguably the hardest position to adapt to when you join a new league, especially one a frenetic as this one. Plenty of high profile CBs who cost a lot more than Lejeune have taken time to adapt to the Premier League so it's no disgrace. Don't write the guy off yet.
