Replacing ASM with someone like Harrison isn't something a CL club should do. Not that convinced about Barnes either tbh.

 

Well he needs replacing by someone. 

[Matt1892]

I think it will be Antonee Robinson signed at left back and Brennan Johnson for the right side attacker.

Oh wey, we can just have a cheerleader in the treatment room, who comes back every six weeks, takes a fortnight to get back up to speed, gives us 3 class games and then gets injured again.

 

That's what CL clubs do. Pep and Klopp would have him out on his arse ASAP. We've no place for carrying mavericks.

Antonee’s not going to take us up another level. He’s got great pace and is like offer a lot going forward but he’s not an amazing defender. Whoever we get at LB needs to be either already very good at both ends of the pitch or destined to be very good at both ends

[STM]

LB is going to be the hardest position to recruit. Finding a good defender is fine, finding a flying full back is fine but you rarely find both.

 

Need our scouting team to be on the ball.

 

Tierney might be the best bet, if he can prove his fitness.

[STM]

Wonder if we still have an eye on DCL.

Doubt so. Hope not, also.

I’m not saying he is someone I would pick but I think Howe will look for Premier League experience in that position and Robinson ticks a lot of boxes in terms of experience and age, as well as being someone he can develop.

 

while not being a flashy signing he will be a decent upgrade on Burn at left back and will bring more balance to the whole team.

 

[Matt1892]

I’ve just googled Antonee Robinson and he’s been linked with Man City at various points since January so maybe not.

[ponsaelius]

He's never looked anything like a player who can play at that level to me when I've seen him mind. 

 

Not even sure he's better than Targett tbh.

Richie, Dummet, Lewis, Fraser, manquillo, etc etc. 

 

We have a heap of players that barely touch grass but ASM is the one that’s got to go?

[Holloway]

Undisclosed fee for Rice but I reckon 80m ish, wages are another matter. Would be up a height if we got him

He’s the only one that would potentially make decent money for us. At some point, we will have to be selling players to make money and also improve our FFP figures (as all other top clubs do), as well as improving the squad at the same time. Ritchie and Dummett are both out of contract this summer. Can’t see Fraser or Lewis making any money for us. 

[joeyt]

Would Guendouzi work in our midfield?

[Kimbo]

There’s a lot of positive things about Robinson, but his defensive positioning is suspect. He would need some work.

If Rice does go to Arsenal I think it would give us a decent shot at signing Moises Caicedo.

Off to Villa I think?

That wasn’t the argument STM made. If it’s purely a fund raising operation then sure. He’ll bring in money cause he’s a valuable asset.
