Ikon Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 (edited) Good window so far. I would say a 7/10 rating. Add a CM or RW and it’s a 8.5/10. Add both and it’s a 10/10 window. Edited August 31, 2022 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye can't argue with that. 7.5/8 out of 10 over the 2 windows I think, with the way the January window players have turned out plus what we've signed this one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I could see Rodgers going rouge and allowing Maddison and Tielemans to leave with Fofana, then sit back and say I told you so to the club. He knows he's not there long term. Why should he care who they sell. Looks better on his stats selling them on and recovering money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about who he is now, and nobody knows because he hasn't played for two tears. I get what you're saying and if we signed him I'd be more than happy to trust Howe, but until somebody with any authority gives us something else we can only go on what we've witnessed, which is very little. I don't think we should sign him personally, I'd rather we continued to develop Anderson. However, if Eddie thought he could get a tune out of him and signed him on a free I wouldn't be worried - it's pretty much zero risk. I just think this blanket writing off of players and saying this guy is shit because that similar guy was shit, is harsh. Some players thrive in the right circumstances - settled into the area, the right manager, the right players around them, supportive fans etc. I've always liked Barkley as a player and i hope he comes good and proves a few people wrong.

McCormick Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 We don’t seem to be interested in these type of deals but if Grillitzch (sp?) is still going for free, he’d be a very solid cover for Bruno. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Lots of stuff about Tielemans and also haidara at leipzig. Understandable that Longstaff is not deemed good enough to cover in there, he is allright at closing games out when we are a goal or two up but he gets caught in possession too much and is too slow on the ball release...

A transfer to Villa didn’t occur because of how he played there on loan (shite). He hasn’t been selected for Chelsea, seemingly because he simply wasn’t good enough. At coming up to 29, sadly, he’s seemingly done man. We’re not the club to resurrect his career. Being given away by Chelsea, he should be being snapped up by a lower PL team hoping to hit lucky, or a good championship team even, but even that’s not currently happening. I can see the likes of Rangers taking a punt. Obviously I'm speculating here, but the fact he hasn't moved to a lower PL team strongly suggests he doesn't appreciate how lucky he's been. Nowt I hate more than a player who flops at their 300k pw job, then refuses to take a reasonable salary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDT Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Really don't understand the mindset of club agrees to pay you X amount for 5 years and then expecting the player a couple of years down the line to say sorry you're paying me too much you should be paying me Y.

Tielemans is a very good footballer in general but I think we don't have a midfield destroyer as such, other than Joelinton, and he seems to operate more left side. Tielemans seems better at the attacking side of the game, not sure he'd fit into Eddie's pressing style so well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
