PlymouthGeordie Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Despite reports in the Athletic today, if Chelsea were to sign PEA and Zaha it wouldn't surprise me if Pulisic was made available for loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdm Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Hope we pull a really exciting loan out the bag. Pulisic would be perfect Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Given the injuries we already have, would Pulisic be a wise signing given his record? I'd be very happy with him, but there's some risk associated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't pull up any trees in Italy last season, played both full back positions, both wings, CM and DM last year lol. If howe fancies I'd take him on loan.

I'd be very happy with him, but there's some risk associated. He is levels above Miggy, Fraser and Murphy so it is a no brainer, especially a loan deal. Fraser is injury prone as it is. Howe touched on it today, we train and play at 100% every game. Unfortunately, the trade off to that approach is soft tissue injuries during busy fixture periods. Pulisic pushes Miggy to the bench who in turn removes Ritchie or Dummett from the squad. Under Howe, a strong squad will be essential and Maitland-Niles and Pulisic would add some good depth. In the case of the latter it would also be a major uplift in quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add AMN to that and you've added quality to the starting XI and added depth to the squad with two loans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I think people that thought there was no budget were wrong too. Can't believe this discussion is STILL going. We probably have a set budget as a ballpark number but we would never let journalists and the whole world to know the number. Transfers been reported as just the upfront payment has never been a thing. Disappointed in you Kaka, day ruined.

TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I would be happy with Maitland-Niles on loan, think Howe’s coaching would improve him a lot. Do recognise it’s not a particularly exciting addition and also a bit Ashley-esque mind. We really need a couple more additions. The squad depth just isn’t there yet.

And all the noise say that we have been looking for wide players We allegedly put in a bid for Diaby. I think maybe we got some indication that it was doable in the future, and want to avoid having 4 RWs in reserve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has he played on the right much before? Do Sociedad play with a right winger? Don't think they did last season. He played on the right side of a pair, so it's safe to assume his ability in that area of the pitch has been observable, Howe may have concluded that what he offers in those areas is exactly what we need from that position, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
