BeloEmre Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 4 minutes ago, Dr Jinx said: Not sure about that, if Botman came in I could see us being competent enough to play 3 at the back with advanced wing backs. Botman in the middle and Burn out left which is probably his best position. If we knew this move was probable it could also explain why the manager would favour Lodi over Targett. This doesn’t sound like a Howe tactic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 I like the idea of being able to switch between 3 at the back and 4 at the back, do wonder if that is something Howe wants to be able to do as Targett seems like such an obvious signing otherwise.

Kanj Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 If we sign Botman he’s the LCB in a back 4. And probably central in a back 3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegans Export Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 17 minutes ago, Ben said: Does Diaby replace ASM ? I wondered this but according to Transfermarkt he's played as much on the right as on the left recently so I don't think he'd be a replacement. ASM, Diaby & Wilson as a front three would be explosive ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Howe still wants a ball play left footed CB, Botman number one target and if he doesn’t come then Ake is next on the list. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 4 minutes ago, Rich said: If Botman doesn't come off? Rather than signing them as well? "Nickson first proposed Botman and, while Howe has also been impressed by the reports, the head coach has alternative targets, including some domestic ones. Nathan Ake (now of Manchester City) and Lloyd Kelly, both of whom Howe signed for Bournemouth, were mentioned during meetings in January and they would be viewed as ideal recruits, although their fees may prove prohibitive."
