Kieran Trippier: has a chance to play against Everton (Howe)

So is the majority thinking Tripps gets replaced by Tino next year? I don't think it's that simple. True leader of men and maybe has a year of 50% starts?

 

Probably late to sell him for value and wouldn't want to see that.

Wouldn’t say anything like the majority think that.

 

People understandably more to see Tino getting more minutes somehow. But I suspect very few think he’s currently a better RB than Trippier.

[gbandit]

The difficult thing is they’re very different players and offer completely different strengths to the team:

 

Trippier - defensively very solid positionally, remarkably good in the air considering his height, our main route for building attacks from defence, takes all set pieces and creates most chances from crosses

 

Tino - fantastic ball carrier, good recovery pace, good in the air, very solid positionally. Won’t create a lot of chances from crosses but is an amazing attacking outlet

Trippier turns 34 this year. As good and important as he is, if a good offer comes I think we should take it.

I understand this position but my position is I don't think the paltry offer we'd get for him outweighs what we'd miss letting him go.

 

If we're absolutely dead up against PSR/FFP/Red Cartel rules, and the offer that comes in is magnificent before June 30th. Perhaps.

[Shearergol]

What's a "good" offer for him though? £15m? He's worth FAR more to us than the money we'd ever get for him. He's a leader both on and off the pitch, that's hard to find.

 

This isn't Paul Dummett or Matt Ritchie we're talking about.

I'm basically thinking of an offer that will never happen. Unless you know, PIF decide to take the piss and ignore FaIr MaRkEt VaLuE.

What is a good offer for him? There was talk we are going to give him another year after next. If his body can keep up, he is still a big asset for us. His game has never been about pace, and hes a topp class technical player.

Ship has sailed on selling Trippier. He won't be going anywhere.

Yep. No one is going to pay good money for someone who will be 34 next season. The upside is, even if we don't get £12m or so, he is still at least a fabulous footballer so we will still have a very good player for next season. To a lesser degree it's the same for Callum Wilson. Wilson is more injury prone so I think most would be far happier to see him sold.

[ponsaelius]

I think the time to sell him has probably been and gone now, although it depends if there was Saudi interest.

 

It'd probably be best to just keep him but not as automatic first choice, with Tino getting a lot more game time and probably becoming first choice.

 

Then hopefully in a year or two Shahar will be ready to step up to the first team when Trippier does go/retire.

Says he wants to be a coach but not a manager which I think bumps up the chances of him staying here long term. Would be cool if he does slot into our setup long term.

Eddie on Trippier - 

"Kieran is getting closer; he has trained this week. It was the first time with the group. He trained well, it has been a good week for him. I will make a decision today whether he will be involved tomorrow."

[arnonel]

Welcome back ! You were missed

[The College Dropout]

In a world with Hall starting LB, I think Tino has to start RB.

[Guest]

He’s back (at the very least on the bench)

Should he walk straight back into the starting 11?

Yes but I think Eddie will go unchanged 

[frankpingel]

Joelinton has to start? Trippier would also if he's 100%.

[80]

Feels great to lose Livramento and still have this guy on the bench ready to step in 

[Collage]

Good to see him back 

 

Edit: I take it back

Why does he have a monopoly on corners

 

 

[Newcastle Fan]

After a superb star to the season it just feels like suddenly he went from leading by example on the pitch to pointing his finger around and hogging all the set pieces, feels like he's turned into more of a coach than a player already, not sure how much use we can get of him next season in a playing capacity 

[Bimpy474]

Awful first half, bar the odd decent bits at the far post when attacking. Sort yourself out man.

[Upthemags]

Still sharp in the final third (save for set pieces), but unfortunately a Championship level defender at this stage in his career... Tino signing now looks crucial for next season
