Especially with us chasing top 4 a year ago. Yes, in the sense that I've been half-expecting us to extend his contract and would be fine with it, whereas Shelvey just had to go. But if we sell him then I assume either he's indicated he'll be moving on for more playing time or we're planning on a big CB purchase in the summer (Schar competition / successor), in which case it would make sense. Though I'd be pretty surprised if Besiktas is the best/only option. Seems like he could do a decent job for anyone in the bottom half of the PL through the top half of the Championship.

Two things: If it a loan then surely we could arrange it so Al-Ittihad continue to pay the bulk of it - if it is permanent he'll have to reduce his terms. Al-Ittihad surely can control if/when he goes and to an extent where. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BennyBlanco Posted January 18, 2024 Share Posted January 18, 2024 Chron are prattling on about some tenuous link to Kimmich. One minute we’re biting the FFP pilllow, the next we’re splurging on Ederson and Kimmich. Put it all in the bin. Can’t be arsed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted January 18, 2024 Share Posted January 18, 2024 He's a good player billing all depends how much bournemouth want for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted January 18, 2024 Share Posted January 18, 2024 No thanks! Not a bad player but id throw up if we signed him. Imagine IF our transfer vision was so narrow minded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jagten Posted January 18, 2024 Share Posted January 18, 2024 Billing is alright but he's not even in the Bournemouth team at the moment. No known contract situation to exploit so don't see how it remotely makes sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley mag Posted January 18, 2024 Share Posted January 18, 2024 Billing , McTominay and Phillips 3 players I hope never grace the black and white stripes. I’d like to think where trying to be a bit smarter whilst battling FFP and trying to bridge the gap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted January 18, 2024 Share Posted January 18, 2024 (edited) Surely we could sign a Billing-esque forrin based player for a third of what Bournemouth would want? A player like him can't be that difficult to scout. Edited January 18, 2024 by Dr.Spaceman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
