Tiresias Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 (edited) I think 1 quality centre back who may well displace either Schar and Burn and if we get another it will be a promising young inexpensive one who will mainly be used in cups.

NG32 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I would like us to compete in all competitions again, so retaining two decent CBs like Shar and Burn is a no brainer, for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 People saying we should let him leave, give your heads a shake. He's currently 1 of our current 2 best centre halves. You keep him and replace the worst ones, Clark and Fernández/Lascelles for example. In a years to 18 months time you replace the likes of Lascelles/Burn/Schar.

Happinesstan Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 3 hours ago, JonBez comesock said: In my opinion is ideal for this year needs to be sold in the summer lacks pace and error prone tries to play without breaking a sweat ideal player for a club happy to tread water in the premier league - not for a team trying to push into the top 8 ps - this is only my opinion I would also sell Lascelles dan burn ideal for 3rd choice if we can’t sign two centre halfs (keep schar) one more season I think he's better than a mid table plodder. Was quality under Rafa, in a 3, and showing similar signs in a 2, under Howe. I've thought this about Shelvey and it may apply to Schar. They had no influence over the choice of Bruce as manager, and likely shrugged their shoulders and gave what was demanded of them, nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 (edited) Shelvey is still not good enough imo. Especially for next season. Cover at best. Edited April 12, 2022 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 (edited) Palace let go of a dozen first team players and typically start games with 5 new signings. Including a new first choice CB pair. They’ve gone up the league, play better football and are in the FA Cup semis. if done diligently - big changes can be made successfully. I think 1 CB is a required but not a major priority. If we had quality options I would get 2 CBs in. If not, focus on 1. It’s only RB and 1 CM that I wouldn’t look to actively upgrade. ST, SW, CM the priority. I don't think Schar - Burn is a top 7 CB pairing fundamentally though. Neither start for West Ham Edited April 12, 2022 by The College Dropout Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodneyCisse Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Every top club has 4 good CBs, I’d be happy with one new one this summer as the likes of Fed can also still do the job when needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 (edited) Don't know why but thought this guy cost us around £10M+, we bought him for £3M, what a fucking steel/steal that was Edited April 15, 2022 by 54 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Got to give him a new 2-year deal at a minimum. He’s not perfect but he’s our best CB at present and the only one who can play a bit of football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 I’m never really a fan of a slow CB who isn’t good in the air. But Schar is still canny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 2 years would seem about right for him. Wouldn't want more than that. Even a year with some sort of extension that kicks in if he plays 10 or more games, but I don't imagine he'd be happy with that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 MOTM for me last night. Absolutely immense. It's almost like a genuine football coach can recognise and develop players with ability and not stick them on the bench to see out their fucking contracts and leave for fuck all, eh Steve?

ponsaelius Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Been really good in general during the last few months like. I can't believe the Albert chant has never been rolled out for him.
