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.
It’s almost like our rivals have more money than us and we have a much stricter wage structure.
Compared to Villa, everton, Leicester, we did not go with cheap options.
Everton was about our level a decade+ ago, and it strategy was a complete bust and set them back for years.
I’m not sure why I’m even bothering to reason with you, though.
Solomon is a better fit for Ange and maybe even a better player.
He's certainly done more against bigger clubs. He's also younger.
Be rational in your assessment and people will at least take the opinion seriously. This twitter account isn't well upstairs.
Or maybe the has walked away from this deal and there is already a lot more cheaper option lined up.
So who would be your two main centre backs from Romero, Colwill and Tapsoba?
N'Solomon is not better than Harvey Barnes.
The guy is a pony, couldn't even get regular games at Fulham
It wasn’t me who posted but the point is that spending money is necessary but not sufficient. We have spent big before on Ndombele and Richarlison but they haven’t worked out so far under the managers we’ve had.I know.

Signings need to be made for a clear football vision and we haven’t done that. No point spending big until we can get that right.
I would have a squad that's capable of challenging seriously.
Colwill and Romero start the season but if either aren't getting it done Tapsoba replaces either and he's champing at the bit to prove the spot should be his. If the LB doesn't perform, slide VdV over there.
I'm not saying sign x2 CB that can only play LCB, Tapsoba can play both, VdV can play LB if needed.
Soloman is not pony but I would have preferred we signed Barnes. He is proven over a longer period and is still young, coming into his best years. Plus we already have his mate Maddison, he is homegrown and his price is not excessive at all.
Bullshit.
Come back to me when Harvey Barnes scores twice against Real Madrid (in the home and away leg) in the Champions League.
Barnes without Maddison playing him in behind might be a 5 goal per season player that can't really beat anyone 1v1.
Solomon was in the top 5 % of prem players for 1v1 in the prem last season.
I think I'll post in whichever thread I think is relevant. If you don't mind Monsieur.
We'll let the actual forum moderator do his work, shall we?
Barnes really isn't that good, he's not creative at all, can't beat his man, and does fuck all defensively.
He's 'similar' but not the same as Barnes.
Just like the Italian goalkeeper is 'similar' but not the same as Raya.
Both come in for less, regarding the fee, and their wages will be cheaper.
They are unknown quantities in the Premier League so represent a punt.
Maddison is a decent signing but if Hojbjerg follows Winks out of the door it is more book balancing and selling to buy.
Daniel Levy club.
ENIC F.C.
Wouldn’t work because none of them is a hybrid.
White/Saliba/Gabriel works because White is a hybrid
Ake/Dias/Akanji works because Ake is a hybrid (it’s also why Laporte found himself on the outs)
Peak Liverpool under Klopp: Gomez was the hybrid and you had VVD and Matip as the main two.
I’m a big Konate fan, but he reduces their options with versatility during the game.
Also see Ten Haag preferring Luke Shaw to Maguire.
Ahhh so you want VdV as well? So a four of Romero, Tapsoba, Colwill and VdV. Thats close to being the best four in the league , only City would have a better 4.
Massively overrated player. Solid PL player but he’s essentially Jarred Bowen on the other wing.
It shouldn't be about the fees.
Where we fall down is wages and level of player we sign. So many of them come from clubs below us, we hardly ever sign established winners.
The point is, we haven't really ever signed a first choice expensive player and it be a success.
