Rusko187 Posted 6 August 2021 Share Posted 6 August 2021 I'd be buying this guy 10000%, provides Fofana and Soyuncu with that bit of experience and is a top quality player who can hold his place in the squad. Realistically, when Fofana returns from injury it's going to take time to come back to his current form... and who knows, probably get plucked up by a bigger club. I think he will be immense, I don't consider Barcelona form as their expectations are significantly different to ours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claudio Fannieri Posted 6 August 2021 Share Posted 6 August 2021 I honestly think Evans could be done or very limited as to how many games he will be able to play in future therefore this signing would make great sense, could be available and viable alternative to Tarky. I honestly think we were waiting for Tarky until he came free next season as Evans replacement but injury to Wes has meant we need to act now and look at different options. Lenglet and Richards would be great additions and give us good options and strength in depth at CB once Fofana returns from injury. Richards would also be the guy to step up if and when Cags and/or Wes inevitably move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A far better player than the likes of Kabak who have been mentioned and unlike guys like Kabak I think he's someone who is arguably better than what is already at the club at CB, if he can rediscover his form of prior to last season. I watched a lot of Barcelona last season and the guy basically had a crisis of confidence. If you watched their games he performed quite solidly in the main and then undone it a number of times by having a brain fart and selling a goal or getting sent off. This has only been the case last season and I think a fresh start would see him discover his old form. This would be a coup of a signing, he's entering his peak years now, he's a threat in both boxes and an international for one of the top international teams in the world. An absolute no brainer if he's up for the move. .. .haven't seen you around for sometime where have you been!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s Barca, they will have very high standards. The same fans also think Dembele and Coutinho are terrible, for example. They’ve been terrible for Barca tbh.

deep blue Posted 6 August 2021 Share Posted 6 August 2021 (edited) If BHA think they are in with a chance then surely we will be good enough to be considered by Lenglet. Given we can offer Europe (of a sort), wages to meet his expectation, Premiership, great training facilities and an exciting project, that limits the teams that could compete with us for his signature. Looks like a very good option for us. I agree with the comment above that I'd look with some scepticism at Brendan's projection for Evans's return date, and I'd also be concerned about how many games he'd cope with over the season.

Muzzy_Izzn’t Posted 6 August 2021 Share Posted 6 August 2021 Would honestly love this guy if there is any realistic chance of signing him! Left footed centre back, a wealth of experience playing for a big team in a big league + champs league and international experience. Yes he may have come off the boil a little last season, but weight of expectation at Barca must be immense! Hopefully would be able to slot in covering for little Wes in the short term, but also a potential long term successor to Evans (arguably even sooner depending on his current injury).

Ropey season at Barcelona, but to be fair the entire club was a mess compared to their usual standards Yes it may be for Barcelona but his ball carrying and passing stats the past season are some of the best in the world for a centre back Obviously not likely to have high defensive stats for a centre back playing for a very ball dominant side, but good to see how pressures the play a lot and will still tackle and intercept FBref stats are possession adjusted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After Wednesday, a new link with a 26 year old CB gives me the same rush as seeing a rumour about us signing a 19 year old left footed right winger from the Dutch Eerste Divisie I've never heard of.
