NUFC Transfer Rumours

Then again, he is an 18 year old with 12 appearances. Plenty of players have broke through initially looking great and then turned out not to be. Begs the question, why would Chelsea  let him go for that? 

 

Chilwell is only 26, Cucurella seems to be unmovable with his fee and wages and selling him wouldn't really help with FFP anyway. Then they also have Maatsen who is only 21 and looks like a real prospect. Hall's path to first team is heavily blocked, they probably see getting £30m for him a good business right now as he's after all still very unproven and would be pure FFP profit.

 

Don't see much risk for us though for £30m, he's so young that even if he doesn't develop as expected we are getting most of the money back at some point.

I feel like if we signed a rcb and bumped Lascelles down to 3rd choice it would kinda be a slap on the face to him in terms of the patience he's had to show and not kicking up a fuss about never playing. I think Howe has probably kept him on side by him still being official captain and with the hope of it Schar is out then he gets to play. 

 

Not that it would bother me as I don't rate Lascelles that high but Howe seems high on team morale and cohesion.

Think it’s more the Ashley doom affect. Ready to throw a turd in our bath at any given moment. We’re good, it’s all good and it’s only going to get better! :indi:

Under Ashley we’d still be signing hall - sod hall

Hall would help with CB depth too as it would release Burn to backup CB duties. Lascelles is absolutely fine as a 4th choice CB for now IMO.

Hall looks very good. But we’ve got to remember the lad is only 18, I’d say £30m is sensible for him. All for it but doubt he’ll be thrown in at left back straight away. 

100% this

He’d be our left back for the next 10 years possibly there after though.

Hall is a really good pickup to be honest. Not that it's saying much but he was one of Chelsea's better performers last season, he's really young with a huge upside.

 

I'd find this sort of signing more exciting then Tierney tbh

He made a good impression at our place in a shite Chewsee side. That’s the first time I saw him play and thought he’s a Howe project!
