Minhosa Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Alcarez would be a big yes from me. Really liked the look of him at Southampton tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livramento, Bella-Kotchap and Alcaraz all linked. Not Ward-Prowse thankfully. No chance now since we bought Ashby but I'd have loved Livramento. He's fucking mint.

We can’t attract the very best yet, but we should be recruiting the next rung down. Players with more than potential! Players who are already full internationals with room to be great! Bruno, Isak and Botman type players These Southampton lads don’t seem anywhere near that level! Lavia is Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why no chance? It’s not like we paid big money for Ashby and Livramento is younger and infinitely more proven. Super risky going into a long season with a guy that has only played a handful of top-flight games as our back-up right-back.

It'd severely limit Ashby's chances, which I imagine would be contrary to what he'd expect and what we had planned. And we also have Krafth. And there's 4 or 5 positions to recruit for before we even think about RB. Just think it's a position we absolutely wont be looking at. Could be wrong, though.

I'm pretty sure Livramento can play either side though, so could be a really solid upgrade on Manquillo. Sadly, there is no guarantee that Krafth will make a full recovery either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 (edited) All fair. I just expect Livramento to want to move somewhere where he's pretty much a guaranteed starter, and there'll be plenty of places that would like to offer him that I'd expect. He left Chelsea for Southampton after all. Not that Im against him coming to us, there's probably only 2 English RBs I'd prefer over him and we already have one of them. The other pushed him out of Chelsea. Edited June 6, 2023 by Super Duper Branko Strupar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sufi Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Can he be converted to LB? Otherwise it seems very unlikely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viana Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Sans FFP I'd say we sign both, loan Ashby out and see how Livramento gets on. Have to be a bit more calculated these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Id be surprised if Ashby is planned to be the main back up RB yet given he was barely even on the bench, and how important a position it is for us now. Can also see Ashby being loaned out for now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Wonder when we'll hear something about Arda Guler. whether to us or somewhere else. Kid just turned 18 and is a born winner and doesnt feel pressure. So mature for his age both on and off the pitch. Personally i'd be happy with him coming in as our only wide player and put the rest of the money elsewhere. Within time he will probably play in a more central role.

I mentioned it a week or two ago that it was being said in Turkey that him and his agent (father I think) had agreed to remove the clause that was in his contract before. Because they wanted it to feel like a decent deal for the club too. 20m is still a steal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
