Lordshola Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 56 minutes ago, WilliamPS said: People suggesting Krafth and Trippier are in some way equivalent?!? Put down your crack pipes. Krafth is fine, Trippier is elite. Let’s be honest. Tripps hasn’t been in elite form for a while now.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Think if Trippier leaves and we sign a new RW we might see a bit of Murphy at RB as well as Krafth. Think if Murphy is to stick around another few years it'll be as someone who can play multiple positions and do a half decent job, hard to keep him around too much longer as just a wing option.

Kanj Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 (edited) Unless we’re getting a fee that helps us this window to sign someone else then I don’t see any reason to sell him. id still start him over Livra if both are fit and on form.

Bellars Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Tripps offers a lot of maturity on the ball, helps retain possession, and allows other players to find space. Thought we really missed that in the early stages of Saturdays game (before the daft sending off), as much as I am excited by Livramento. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a big miss, especially our RW is now either Almiron or Murphy who aren’t good enough that said, I really not sure Trippier would be able to improve it now. Since his marriage problem broke out his form is outrageously bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, paired with his form as well - I’ve always said as a club we don’t sell well enough as nobody wants our players then when we do find someone the fans go into meltdown about it. We need to get better at cashing in when we can and tripps, miggy - sorry but for me their time to go is now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 He makes a huge difference on the right side in an attacking sense particularly when you have Miggy or Murphy playing ahead. That being said I think Tonali will make a big difference to that right side when he eventually comes in in terms of creativity. I don’t want Trippier to go but if it also helps bring in a new RW I’m happy with that. I think Livramento will push on as a starter and offers different qualities (speed, very direct in attack) and Krafth is a decent back up. It seems from reports that Trippier will probably leave this window, he’s been an immense signing but I’m ok with him going, as I said particularly if it frees up a bit of room for say a new RW arrival if things are very tight assuming Guehi comes in.

Groundhog63 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 I'm OK with him going as well, if that's what he wants. Would still start for me, mind, so there is that. Some of the patter on here about him is lifting like. Despite his woes blokes spent the summer getting hid National team into a major final whilst playing out of position. 😳 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a move away/fresh start might help his general social situation too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 He’s quality but I’d be starting Tino personally. Tino will only improve where as the opposite is true for trips. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Parka Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 As sad as it is I think he's declining pretty rapidly. What a signing though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bally21 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Whatever happens with tripps going forward, he has been immense for us, if he leaves then all the best to the lad. He will be a miss no doubt, livra is a good player, maybe backup player becomes a concern, however kraft has done OK when called upon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingxlnc Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 We also have Ashby who can cover Tino Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhtoon Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Hopefully the drop in form was due to personal issues and we don't have to write him off just yet. If he's got his head straight and gets back to his best (10 assists in 28 games last season ) then might buy us another season without the RW upgrade - Almiron/Murphy allows him to get up the pitch more. I love Tino, but there'll be plenty of game time to share between them I'm sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Ashby needs a chance to get some minutes before we can make any judgememt but on the surface he’s miles off Trippier Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 I know he had his a few defensive lapses last season, but we'll miss him going forward too. He's been instrumental in our attack for a while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 (edited) He's one of the few players who has on-field management skills. Not just when he has the ball, but off the ball. Organises other people well. Edited August 22 by OCK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ9 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 I think the way the team is shaping up, I think we’re more likely to be progressing from the wings in terms of carrying the ball. I also think we’re likely to shift to threatening down the left too. Tripps is elite on his day and I agree with the poster that said we missed his control and game management, but I think Hall will eventually do what KT has done except down the left.

Dr.Spaceman Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Remember reading that West Ham fans were pissed off when they lost him, seemed to be highly rated 3/4 years ago. Shame if he's not even good enough for the Championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
