Geogaddi Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 (edited) I think it's almost certain he will want to join Man City and will do in the summer. It is all about the fee we get for him now, we paid 30 million for him and with how he has progressed since then we should be demanding at least double that. Hall is the better of the two anyway so as long as we keep him that's the main thing. Edited January 10 by Geogaddi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpie Mover Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Tino is a lot more Win Bassaka than a Reece James or TAA or other progressive full backs. Defensively excellent but limited going forward. Imagine someone paying around 70m for a footballer who can't cross or shoot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But aye, he isn't progressive. Can make a good run but needs to be more confident on the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good comparison although he’s better at driving with the ball than Bissaka. Definitely not the technical quality of Walker though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cf Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I'd be after £90m+ if it's city who want him. If we're selling to these clubs we really do need to maximise what we get. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackflap Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I think it's a no brainer to cash in on him in a PSR world where player trading is a necessity. Excellent player but injury record and lack of attacking output will prevent him being truly elite, right backs aren't that hard to find either, different to a good right winger or a striker, as long as they're proactive in identifying a replacement. If City come in for him negotiate a fair price and avoid a drawn out saga. Think it's beneficial to keep a decent relationship with City. They usually have a few decent young players on their books that they can't find game time for and could benefit ourselves, Oscar Bobb springs to my mind at the moment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 After the club's handling of Isak-gate, even leaking rumours about interest in him will be win-win for the cartel. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimbo Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 If Livramento wants to go, they pay £90m+, and they pay it up front so we don’t have to worry about them getting kicked out of the premier league due to their extensive history of cheating, then I can’t complain too much.

Bunk Moreland Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Rumours about Tino going to City always seem to appear in the days before we play them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crayola Kid Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Very few players higher on the list of 'must keep' than Tino Livramento for me. They all have a price and the players wishes are a huge factor but he's one of our best. Say we had a huge game, a cup final, or the last match to win the points for prem top four at end of season. You can pick your best eleven, everyone on our books is fit and on form. He's in that 11 for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Tino is a fantastic little player especially defensively, but he's not a complete player and has a worrying propensity for injuries. I'd love 90m as everyone seems to be saying but not sure you'd get that for a fullback who is limited going forwards. Would we sniff at 70 odd?

BergenMagpie Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Obviously love Tino, but if we got a mega offer he's one I wouldnt be too bothered about selling. He's great defensively, but always looking so clumsy going forward (on the right side) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Love Tino but he does have a lot of injuries, however we are a far better team with him in it. We need to learn, judge if he's off, get a high quality replacement signed early and then sell him if happy with that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Man City are being linked to other right backs, so nothing is inevitable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crayola Kid Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I think he does what he's expected to do in linking up with midfield and attack. If we had an inverted right winger like we do on the left, he'd be expected to go wide and cross but we don't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had an inverted right winger like we do on the left, he'd be expected to go wide and cross but we don't. If that were true I feel we'd have seen a lot more offensively from his extensive shifts out left. That said, it's perhaps one of his greatest strengths that he is equally sound defensively on either side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understand the point but he is right footed, so hitting the byline would not necessarily yield great results on the left. He's a link man in our attacks, keeps the ball moving, occupies space, whichever side he is on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
