SUPERTOON Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 We aren’t letting Lascelles go this month imo, we would need a replacement if we did and he’s by all accounts a great character and leader in the dressing room, something Howe will want to keep mid season.

jackflap Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Could see Ward Prowse been a player that Howe would be really keen on but not available until the summer and so we might see us waiting out until then before we make any major additions in that area. Ticks all the boxes, consistent performer, potential to go to another level in a better side, durable, great work rate, prem experience and obviously excellent attitude. With Southampton a fair shout to go down he should be available at a reasonable fee. Could see him slotting in for Longstaff and us having a really tasty yet combative midfield. My shout would be him and Diaby in the summer. Longstaff moves to squad player role who'll get plenty of minutes and never cause any hassle. Almiron will become our version of Bernardo Silva. Will cover either flank and has the work rate to slot into midfield if needs be. Think those two would really transform the top half of the field for us. Not a fan of Neves. Too slow in and out of possession. The type of player who needs to be scoring at least 5 worldies a season to justify which he doesn't do. Called us a long ball team after we dominated most of the game against them with an injury ridden side too! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Been ongoing since last February, Zaniolo, think his agent is hard at work. Sky Sport Italia said this in June, and given the first part was so wrong maybe the rest was bollocks as well: “Zaniolo is leaving Roma, he is the player that will finance Roma’s transfer market. There was a rejected bid from Newcastle he doesn’t want to go to the Premier League. Milan and Juventus have started the first approaches for the Italian winger.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I didn't think Ward-Prowse was in Neves' league before going looking for those stats. If we were sorely lacking a set piece taker, then maybe, but given we have Trippier I'd steer well clear. I don't even think JWP would be bad for us, either, I just think we can do much better.

Kanj Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 We generally make midfielders and players look ordinary with our tactics and style of play. Hence why we are 3rd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Think we're getting a good deal with Lascelles at the minute tbh. Modest wages, good dressing room presence, not kicking up a fuss at being left out and not too bad a player for a 4th choice who rarely plays.

wiseman Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Getting rid of Lascelles at the moment would make no sense, finding a better player to sit on the bench, while also providing the leadership he has. As far as the wolves interest goes, adding some proper leadership to their dressing room right now would massive and could be the difference between relegation and survival Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be so but he started one game recently and we conceded 2 goals to sheff wed. We can’t keep him around because he’s a good presence in the dressing room can we?

Dokko Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 If JL wants to leave and gets offered a good gig like wolves, then we should allow it, even if it weakens us for a few month. Get a young cb in to compete with Schar, I think between the squad we have quite a lot of leadership. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its never a case of keeping a good guy who doesn't mind sitting on the bench etc, we need competition for places, Schar and Botman able to be rotated and rested occasionally, as good as or someone who'll become our next CB, Skiniar would be mint, I'm just throwing up a name, probably unlikely, but that's the way we need to be thinking now.

SUPERTOON Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Lascelles is currently 4th choice, but our other 3 cbs all play every week so he’s an injury away from starting. I certainly wouldn’t be selling this month unless we do replace him immediately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
