Tino Livramento

Thought he was absolutely class for a while.

Is there a clause because £12m is very cheap. I was expecting £20m or so plus add-ons. 

Will imagine it would get pretty close to 20 with adding etc?

[ponsaelius]

Manquillo will go and I'd imagine Ashby out on loan if this happens.

 

Krafth will stay as 3rd choice/emergency CB until his contract expires next summer.

[STM]

You'd think Manquillo would be perfect for Southampton too? He'd piss the championship.

Was class when he was fit, but he’s just had 392 days out injured- only played for the first time again at the end of this May. No one knows if he’s recovered to the same ability as he previously showed. £15m is about right imo- much more than that and I’d be throwing it at Fresneda instead.

I think he’s better than the championship. Not much like but if he plays his cards right he could still be playing top level next season maybe abroad somewhere

If we are willing to spend 12m on a back up right back then then that must be good news for our budget and ffp wiggle room?
 

We still need a new starting left back and attacking midfielder which will be 80m or so for the pair so surely we wouldn’t be signing back up players if things were that tight 

Livramento can play Lb as well, I believe.

I thought this too but there is zero evidence to back it up

The Fresneda noise has went very quiet. No sign of Dortmund going for him even?

Hes never played left back judging by anything Google has to offer

[STM]

Just shows that we are prepared to sign quality young players, regardless of whether its a priority position.

 

I don't think Trippier, Krafth and Tino as a 3 is particularly over the top. Provided we sell Manq and loan out Ashby.

[sempuki]

We've offered Fraser apparently. Trippier can play LB but not sure where he would play if he signs.

He's not getting in our starting 11, he's 20 but Trippier was already over worked last season. We need someone who can take the weight off him.

[Optimistic Nut]

The two players we were (or would have been) hit hardest by when injured were Bruno and Trippier last season. We'd have solved that straight away with Tonali and Livramento. Great recruitment. 

[Mountain]

We're cooking

[Pilko]

Feels like he's been around the PL for ages and yet he's only 20 years old. Have heard good things before so here's hoping.

 

I reckon this'll be Ashby away on a season-long loan and either Manquillo or Krafth selt.

[Ikon]

Remember being impressed with him the few times I’ve seen Southampton play. Didn’t know he was English. Also plays in a slightly exotic way like his name.

Only played 30 games in total in his career- 28 in 21/22 and 2 last season. Looked good for those 28 games though. 

[Nucasol]

“Closing in” the same way we were with Barella. Take anything from The Telegraph with a handful of salt as their headline writers and those doing the articles are always out of synch.

[MagMal]

Don't much about him, what's he like going forward?, could he be a cheap option that they think they can convert into a winger given the amount of players we have that can play full back?.

[STM]

In fairness to Baldwards, I suspect this has come from the Southampton end.

 

Also, 12/15 with add ons, is an exceptional price for a 20 year old who's been injured for a year and coming from a relegated side.

[Kid Icarus]

On paper it doesn't make much sense to have a 20 year old back up with a 21 year old out on loan like. 

 

Kyle Walker-Peters would make much more sense.

Agree although corroborated by others since, including Ornstein.

Had to read this a few times before I realised you meant "exceptionally expensive" rather than "exceptionally cheap"

Livramento when fit could play for quite a few sides in the league already. Ashby is nowhere near that I don't think?
