Turnbull2000 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Just want to give him a hug and say thanks. A stand out player I'll always remember fondly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Quote I don't think he will make the last two games which is a real shame for Fabian. He is back running again and looking fit and healthy but there is a big difference between that and actually playing. I don't think it's necessarily about the farewell. He has a lot still to offer on the pitch. We will have discussions with him and his representatives in the next week. Sounds like he will stay tbh.

Zero Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) I don’t think it’s good news, sorry. Just like Trippier this season. Edited May 15 by Zero Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paully Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Yeah it’s a no-brainer for me giving him another year with the expected upheaval we’re about to encounter - fingers crossed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 One of our greatest ever performers at centre half and brought him in for a pittance. Hard to argue against him being one of the club’s best ever transfers. Struggle to think of anyone better when bearing in mind longevity, transfer value, effectiveness at the back and going forward and general commitment to the club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I reckon he's got another year in him but we'll ideally add a younger CB to the mix who can learn off him while he's still here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 As long as the injury hasn’t affected him he’s still our best CB. Can’t just let him go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I think it would be wise to extend him as backup to Thiaw and emergency LCB if Botman and Burn are both unavailable. I also think we should be looking at a competition for Botman at LCB who is young with pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fak Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 If hes off we should be looking to get Senesi from Bournemouth on a free. Be some competition for him like I suspect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

black_n_white Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Far too many other holes to fill before we start looking at central defence, hope he stays for another year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schar looks after himself a lot better than Trippier by all accounts. He’s also a year younger. Schar has another season or two in his legs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Always found it odd he was never in "the leadership group" that Eddie created with Lascelles, Tripps, Wilson, Burn and Bruno Maybe he didn't want to be in it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milburn Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 So Burn and Schar starting next season then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 I assume he's staying if his exit hasn't been announced yet? More than happy to keep him around the squad. He's a standard setter and a leader in group that's losing a lot of good lads this summer. I do think he's on the decline now and wouldn't want him starting too many games, but no harm in taking up a Lascelles type role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) On 15/05/2026 at 05:03, duo said: I can see it - he is a year younger than Tripps. Easily has another year at this level. Based on the amount of blood spit about Tripps all season, we should’ve moved on from him last summer. Edited May 18 by Deuce Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
