He doesn't play over Botman or Schar though. Great option to have mind with our high press when teams are eventually forced to hoof it and there's him to head down to Bruno or Tonali.

He did quite well there, but was utterly dreadful against Spurs when they howked us 5-1, and switched off at the wrong moment down at Chelsea in the same season. A bit of a stretch to say he’s been great every time he’s played there. I’d be worried if we got an injury and he was starting every week in that position, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Had one at Everton too) Hardly a stretch though giving he was playing every minute of each game. Try not to worry. He’d be fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Did think a CB that we want in a similar mould to Botman but right footed would take a big fee and they'll postpone that until next summer. Hall or Tierney would round off a really good window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeletor Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Left back makes far more sense. Any CB worth their salt is gonna cost zillions, same for a RW. We have affordable left back targets and it's the weakest position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonesJones Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Any truth in Lewis Hall being a toon fan? Would definitely help a little in getting him no doubt, any toon fan would be all over joining us right now! Hopefully he's pushing hard for the move himself, if the rumour is true.

If we got him, I'd say it would be a good ending to a great transfer window. Don't think we'd bring in anymore than that in one go even if we could.

Thumbheed Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Based on nothing I think we know exactly who we want but are waiting till the end of the window to avoid a scramble that pushes the price up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountain Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 (edited) I'm basing this off nothing but I just don't think the cucarella or Tierny thing is remotely true. Just doesn't seem like the sort of thing we'd do, we seem too smart. Both are injury prone and overrated. We'll end up signing someone we've never heard of and he'll instantly be a ballon dor level defender after 1 game.

The Cucarella link seems random for sure, he just doesn't seem the sort of player Howe has rated in defence to now. When you think he's preferred Dan Burn over all other options despite being a CB in reality, I just don't see how a small and fizzy forward focused left back would be what he was looking for. The Tierney links seem far more grounded given that we've been following him for months now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t see it happening though, no reason for Arsenal or Chelsea to help us. Edited August 14, 2023 by Pata Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
