If so we need another rb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as a starter, sure, but he’s a good squad option for them. I’m not advocating it, just seems like we have to shift quite a lot of dead weight and adding Manquillo to a stack of cash for Trippier is a pretty decent deal all round Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I thought he has been playing quite well recently, proper marauding full back in the last few games. Has always been a bit fragile but has improved a lot... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Manquillo can also play LB where the options are Ritchie and an injuried Lewis. Prefer to keep him and assess/ replace at end of season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 (edited) Look, I agree Manquillo has been underused and underappreciated, but we’re all hoping Trippier starts every match on the run in - Krafth has proven to be slightly less than shite under Howe, and we really don’t need three right backs if one of them is first name on the sheet when available, do we?  I also agree Manquillo is leagues better than Krafth, but isn’t he (Krafth) on huge wages?  I think the club will be looking to shift players rather than cancel contracts or let unregistered players run down their contracts. All monies spent doing that would be wasted in a FFP context Edited January 4, 2022 by Raconteur Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Zaius Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I think getting a striker will be the hardest like. Plenty of exciting names mentioned in other positions, not impressed at the strikers being thrown about though. Â Need someone to hit the ground running. 11/12 Papiss Cisse please.

He defended well against Man U though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
