Fit right in with our defence then.He's undoubtedly a quality player but surely Thiago Silva would, at 35, have an absolute nightmare against PL attackers.

Don't know whether he's got a mention recently - but I'd be all over Buendía in addition to Aarons if/when Norwich go down.
If played alongside Alderweireld, it would be total suicide.He's undoubtedly a quality player but surely Thiago Silva would, at 35, have an absolute nightmare against PL attackers.
Exactly. If he wasn't on a particularly long contract I could see him being the direct Vertonghen replacement under the proviso he and Toby alternated as the slower, senior CB role.
Disagree...
Bare in mind some of the teams mentioned that you replied to include Juve, PSG & Bayern.. and they all regularly win titles.. and have had some very very questionable players during those years. I mean.. which team did we buy Moura & Aurier from for example.. PSG. Bayern has a Woolwich flop (now doing pretty well.. but it's much more easy in a team like that) .. Juve went for Ramsey.. albeit on loan.
The more that I look at it.. there definitely seems to be an inferiority complex by some here who think that those top teams are full of players that are super consistent and that they are somehow on a different level to our players..
Dembele for Barcelona is super overrated.. and as is most of the Real Madrid attack.. yet Sonny apparently can't get in to any of those teams mentioned??
If he was not a player that could get into those sides.. then:
Why would Messi rate Son in the top 25 players in Europe?
Why would he be nominated for a Ballon D'or in 2019?
Why would Virgil Van Dijk pick him in a 5-a-side team made of prem players (non liverpool) and no one else in our team?
Please don't.
35 though. Same old same old....
We need younger more aggressive players. I've nothing against him but how many miles are left in his legs? This is a wet dream for Levy.
Plus I see that many other teams (I don't know how much truth is in it) are prepared to offer lots of money for young good players. Werner, Sancho, Havertz etc...if we're as rich as we're supposed to be, why are we looking at underwhelming and geriatric players?
We aren’t signing Tiago Silva, it’s just his agent punting him around. Nothing to see here.
I do agree with you, but I wouldn't want us to go for any of the players you mentioned purely based on their position... we are pretty covered in those areas. But yeah, the equivalents of them in the defensive positions is what we need.
this guy's earning like 20m a year... always injured... Woolwich icon... let's go! Jesus, these rumors.
I’d be completely on board with this to be honest.
"Already in January, there was an offer from Tottenham Hotspur. As soon as the European markets open, it should be settled."
He must be new to dealing with us!
26 goals in the French second tier in 18-19. 12 goals in the French top flight this season before the season was cut off. Not a flashy goal grabber but he was instrumental in Metz looking like they were going to stay up with relative ease.
