GeordieDazzler Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 As for JWP I think he falls into the “good player but not good value at the price they’d want” category. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 I wouldn't be too against us doing a City in that area. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 I'm not sure JWP would fancy it even if we were after him; in fact if I was betting I'd plump on him just staying at Southampton. He seems to relish the responsibility he has at that club and might feel duty-bound to stay and fight for promotion, after admitting that the squad basically hadn't tried hard enough to ensure survival. He's also presumably had other chances to leave previously and not done so. He's never left the south coast. Might not fancy up-rooting to the North East to be a squad player after a lifetime of being the first name on the teamsheet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Go for Lavia from them otherwise the days of JWP coming here are over. If we are to keep the high octane Eddie press our 8s have to be machines, preferably with pace and strength. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just out of interest, have any big clubs been seriously interested in signing him? Pretty sure he would have left if they had. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would be a decent squad player, the issue is we have lots of squad players out wide but not that player with star ability, compared to Liverpool who have Salah and Diaz.

Oregon_Geordie Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Definitely think we've passed the JWP level. He's really one-paced also. Lavia yes. Personally, I'd go Ugarte/Thuram, DS (the Hungarian lad), Tierney, and a high-quality Young Striker and Centre Halve to come from the bench. Madison would be a bonus if Eddie doesn't want the Hungarian. Guler would be canny too, my Turkish mate, raves about him. Excited to see who we go for...

Whitley mag Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Guler, Roque, Hungarian, Thuram, Tobido and a left back just not permacrock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Arda Guler might be young but he's intelligent and plays with an old head. Evaluates situations well which not every player this young do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Tin hat on here, but we do need back up in the striker position. We need to find someone who is prepared to struggle for his place, but who can do a decent job if and when required, and who isn't going to cost the Earth. We don't seem to have a striker coming up through the ranks. Patrick Bamford doesn't have a big reputation, but I never like seeing him on the opposing side. He can make things happen.

christ Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Don’t rate Bamford at all. Had a single good season in the PL during his entire career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmesy Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Whoever suggested Bamford needs to get in the sea. He's absolutely fucking terrible. He's a 1 in 8/9 Championship striker at best. That team under Bielsa created so many chances that it masked Bamford's wastefulness. Leeds would probably be staying up this season if Bamford hadn't fluffed so many guilt edge chances.
