Not the worst squad option ever, he can come on late in games against tiring defences and cause havoc, he's a good runner. He's way too inconsistent to ever be a solid option for the first team, he can't be relied on to produce consistently enough for where we want to be. His final ball is 85% abysmal, it's not good enough.

Got to be better out there.
He's a must buy for £15-16 million. That barely gets you a decent young Championship level player these days. He's got his flaws and limitations but is a more than solid PL squad player with some pedigree.
Keep him if he's willing to accept a bench role with bench salary.
If not, he's not worth it.
It's fairly simple I think. We still need to sign a star winger (ideally for the right side), a starter CF to compete with richarlison, and Son on the left. Timo can play as a Perisic depth role essentially. That means taking a pay cut though.

Just nope.
We don't need another player who frustrates and divides the fanbase because the deal is easy to do financially.

Maybe he is homesic?
Send him back - the boy!

Should we keep Timo if this goes through?

Should we be buying players based on a minor change to the off-side rule?
Seems like a pretty major change to meShould we be buying players based on a minor change to the off-side rule?
May as well not have an offside rule
Conventional wisdom suggests it'll prove an advantage to a quicker attacker; but there's a flipside that argues that it is a leveler for slower attackers where-upon that lack of pace would be less of a disadvantage (both over the CB and the option of selecting a different striker instead).
Massive kick in the teeth for the defending team though...... Classic example of "entertainment" > "sporting merit and balance".

There is wisdom in this. They're trying to change the rule, not because the offside rule is bad but because VAR is bad at it.
They're just moving the threshold...... The 'rule' per say isn't changing. It won't suddenly eradicate tight decisions or how long it takes to reach them.
I wouldn't be too bothered if he didn't get bought or that excited if he was.
Son and Richarlison will score about 50 goals each anyway.
It’s an enormous change. But I don’t think it will happen.
