Can only think of Atsu, Dubravka and Targett the last 6 years. We signed Willock but don't think that had an option, we just went and signed him.

Though not sure if that was an option or more like with Willock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason I mentioned that is because there was that tweet saying loans are something we are looking at the rest of the window, and even from the beginning of the summer that was being mentioned. Think it allows us to defer payment for a year which probably gives us some more wiggle room financially. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley mag Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Having not watched Upamecano much at Bayern has he really turned to shit ? All the top clubs seemed to be after him a couple of years back, would imagine they’d still want a hefty fee for him, if indeed he is a target.

Young star struck lad pointed him out, in hushed tones, I shrugged at irrelevance and walked past.

January may see an opportunistic buy if one became available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) TBH I doubt pace will be the number one priority. It would be great if we could find a CB who can pass and duel like Anderson and beat Darwin Nunez in a race. But if that player exists it’s more likely he’s signing for Real Madrid or out of our price range. We’ll need to stop the defence being exposed rather than rely on their individual speed.

The only defender in the top ten is Kyle Walker, as CB’s are just not as quick as forwards in general. It is why tactical adjustments are more important if you are playing against a team that play the long ball over the top for quick attackers, like we did at home against Brighton last season.
