Stifler Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Honestly not arsed. I thought during the summer that we were overpaying for someone who’s probably only really going through a purple patch. £60m-£70m is too much to be spending when we arguably have bigger weaknesses elsewhere in our first 11, and certainly in our squad depth. If he goes back to Chelsea, then more fool him, they only want him back to sell him on for more profit, and in the meantime he’s probably going to go 12/18/24 months without much football.

PRL Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 (edited) If they sign him then we should potentially be looking at the young lad they had who debuted at the weekend. Once Fofana is back at end of season he’d be shunted to 4th choice at best and may be available for a reasonable fee. I know he’s signed a new contract, but so did Hall before we signed him and we might be able to get another loan with obligation type deal to phase him in next season. edit: maybe not, shows a chronic lack of research on my part, he’s primarily a right back and was played out of position Edited January 7 by PRL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emotic Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Reports of our scouts at the Portuguese League Cup game to watch Sporting's Ousmane Diomande - 21-year-old CB, huge physical player who tackles high up the pitch and is a superb passer of the ball - almost like a hybrid of Botman and Schar.
