Lewis was rated before he came here, he’s pacy and has similar qualities why didn’t Howe focus on him


Almost as though Robinson and Lewis are two different people.

Any reason why you are comparing two entirely different people? I think I can guess. [emoji38]

Lewis did start for Howe before he was injured.

Please no. We have Lewis in the squad who arguably no better or worse.

 

You might not rate Robinson that highly, but he's in another stratosphere to Lewis. He started almost every game for Fulham who had a very good season (I think).

I’m not wanting us to sign Robinson but to say he isn’t better than Lewis is laughable.

When I’ve seen Robinson he’s looked better going forward than Lewis and worse defending than Lewis. Any improvement overall is marginal which is why I added arguably. If we are assuming we would get no more than £5-10m for Lewis then with a tight budget IMO you’d be wasting the extra £20-25m of it to swap them. Targett is also better than both and age wise coming into his prime.

Robinson has matured and completely turned his career around at Fulham, he is coming off the back of an excellent season and a good showing in the World Cup.

 

Howe will make him even better but I think he might end up at Man City.

I don't know why people are bringing up Lewis, but I think it's fair to ask does Robinson really provide enough of a difference on 2022 Targett? (I'm assuming he was just woefully out of form this past season due to injuries)

 

Now that I think about it I haven't seen many mentions of selling him, but not sure why we'd keep Targett around if we brought in a new LB.

I’ll take your word for it as going off a a very small sample size for both. Just going off the two games I attended against Fulham and the couple of games I watched them. Arsenal in particular he was embarrassing in his defending and I’m rarely that critical of any player as you know. Lewis after picking up another injury looks done here unfortunately as can’t stay fit long enough to repay the club in any shape of what was a sizeable fee. Shame for him as EH got a couple of decent games out of him but hasn’t been fit since. So hopefully Robinson would be fitter so that would be a major plus ?

Robinson didn't play in either game against us this season which might be why he didn't impress you.

I know. I was being facetious at the claim he was good because Fulham had a good season. Should’ve added one of my smileys. My bad ?

 

Remember him in this game. This was just the highlights. Lucky to not score an OG and weak as piss on all three goals. Appreciate that and a couple of other games isn’t a big sample size though ??

Given I doubt he'd cost over 30m, Robinson would be a great signing. Already the business going forward, think we would come on leaps and bounds under our coaching team. Has some much needed pace to add to the back line as well. 

 

£30m is a fair whack to spend on a full back mind, he'd have to be the complete package to justify that outlay. Both going forward and defensively.
