Indeed and the demand for Sanchez is far higher than £9m.

So why sign anyone? I'm dubious about the quality of our 19/20 year old youngsters. Devine looks good but needs regular football on loan. Is Sarr creative, can he score 7 or 8 a season? Another that would probably benefit in a prem loan. I'm pretty sure Postecoglou will want someone if Hojbjerg goes (and he wants shot of Tanguy)Skipp, Bissouma, Maddison, Benta, Sarr and even Deki at a push should be enough for a side not in Europe. We're crying about not giving youngsters a chance, yet now you're advocating we buy a player that could potentially block Sarr's progress, or bringing in someone from the academy. In a throwaway rebuilding year, no less.
Makes zero sense.
I'm not saying we shouldn't do anything, of course I ain't. We bloody need to do summit and get rid of the junk.We conceded 63 goals - something has to be done. Would you like the club to do nothing and go with Forster + Sanchez/Dier next season?
All one can do is hope that the club has done its due diligence. Like with any player.
On paper it’s an immediate upgrade on Dier and Sanchez in several ways:
Both VDV and Tapsoba seem mobile, good on the ball, composed, and tactically versatile.
Keep it fresh.
i'd be worried about selling hojbjerg, as i dont fully trust the club in replacing him with someone better. and with bentancur being out till aroudn december it seems risky. I dont particularly rate skippy, and Sarr is such a raw unknown stil only 20 years old. He probably needs one more season to devlop as Caicedo did before he stepped in and replaced Bissouma
i know hojbjerg seems hated on he but he has proven to have quality in this league. Think he suffered badly under Conte last season as did nearly everyone else,
I agree tbh, but then he's the first progressive, possession based coach we've had since both came to the club. He might view them a lot differently than recent managers. Would be well up for replacing them fwiw, but I could see him finding he has use for either or both.It feels like chance number 5 for both of those. Do we go back to whats patently failed over the last 4 years? If we get offers for those i'm pretty confident they'll be off. Postecoglou cleared out a ton of players when he first went to Celtic.
Looking at their forum he looked good before being dropped and un played due to either telling them he wouldn't sign permantly or pissing off the manager.4 goals in 19 games that he didn't start in all of them for a mid table team for a non striker isn t bad tbh...
What you fail to understand, is that every single expensive signing we have made, with no exception has been somewhere between dismal at worst and suspect at best.What he doesn't understand or at least fails to, is until you get to Aldereweireld, you have to go through 2/3 seasons of Chiriches and Fazio.
Going cheap in the long run is actually more expensive
Bentancur injured. Bissouma often injured. Skipp often injured. Ndombele often unfit.Bissouma, Bentancur, Maddison, N'dombele, Sarr, Skipp
6 players for 3 positions is perfectly fine.
I see your definitely and I raise you one
Why would there be cunt offs about performances when we're winning everything?!I can't wait for the season to start so cunt offs over transfers end, and we can go back to having cunt offs about performances instead.

Don't forget we also have the option of playing Dier in MF.i'd be worried about selling hojbjerg, as i dont fully trust the club in replacing him with someone better. and with bentancur being out till around december it seems risky.

Because you are both so alike!Oh noooooo
Wasn’t I on your “ignore list” before? Why did you take me off?
