kingxlnc Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Given Andersen is considered to be a like for like copy of Schar albeit 5 years younger, getting him for 20m could be a great short term option for a couple of years. Buys us time, and keeps money in the pot for a top RW. Schar and Andersen (and Krafth) as the passing defenders is more than good enough for RCB with Botman Kelly and Burn for LCB. Lacks speed but can resolve that next summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 (edited) I’m sure we don’t want to buy a CB now and another one next year. Edited August 21 by AyeDubbleYoo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s from a previous club Mitchell will have great insight about his character, the sort of insight you can’t get from scouting or data. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abacus Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Not sure if the recent silence re Guehi is a good thing or not, but I'm tending to think it is. We haven't tended to give up on our reported targets in the past and if we haven't in this case then I'd prefer no noise about it. I'll still be delighted if we get him, at whatever price the club thinks is right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I wouldn't, but then I don't earn enough in a month to set me up for life, and a few weeks wages wouldn't make a difference.

Unbelievable Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 12 minutes ago, Sibierski said: There’s very little good examples of a DoF signing players from a previous club / connections that turn out good long term. Seems anecdotal that statement. In general people tend to gravitate towards people they've worked well with before, and that is usually considered a positive thing. It's kind of odd that you don't mind this for Howe (Wilson, Kelly, etc.) but suddenly when it's a DoF it becomes a problem. I'd love for Mitchell to use his inside knowledge of Monaco's academy to try and poach their best prospects for example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s locked out of Monaco players for a time frame via a non compete as part of his departure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
