May fancy regular game time elsewhere despite being highly thought of there. He's qualitee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if we can pick him up, Man City perhaps not keen to let him go. But we could gamble and pay £20m to bring him in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They deserve to be playing EL /CL football regularly… sadly I do t see us offering that for a while.. Lol this is not happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pliskin Posted 25 January 2022 Share Posted 25 January 2022 We should be looking at Van De Beek as an option to replace Youri! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vestergaard who is shit! Amartey our stand out… who would ever have thought that.. Evans is done let’s be honest. fofana not guaranteed to play this season. hamza and wilf have had to fill in at CB.. yet we don’t need to recruit ? Dear me. Forgetting Brunt? Played 1, won 1.

Stadt Posted 26 January 2022 Share Posted 26 January 2022 I've finally realised that you can view player stats by league on FBref now rather than just by team. Georginio Rutter stands out like a sore thumb looking at his stats. He's the most two footed players I've ever seen (statistically) with 51% of touches with left. Stats-wise, a player with <= 80% usage with one foot is quite two-footed so this is ridiculous. He's 19, 6ft, played up front or on the wing. 5 goals and 2 assists in 1108 minutes this season. https://fbref.com/en/players/c64c01fc/Georginio-Rutter 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks fairly flexible as well in terms of playing across the front line. Contracted to 2026 and only 19, so may come at a premium, but one to keep an eye on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a case of £30m now (like Fofana) or £60m to one of the giants later. If we'd hadn't shit ourselves when Fofana got injured, loaned a CB and just trusted KDH over signing Soumare, we'd have the money to sign somebody like this now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we signed him we would have been fully committing to 5 at the back. which when we were originally linked made sense because we had 3 high performing cbs that it would make sense to build around. since then we’ve lost 2 to injury (1 is probably done with football altogether) and the last man standing has forgotten how to play. this would have been a nightmare because he wouldn’t have helped us defensively at all. on paper he’s great but we would have wasted the next couple of years either playing him out of position or not playing to our strengths. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxinNotts Posted 26 January 2022 Share Posted 26 January 2022 I'd like us to sign Calvin Ramsey (£5m) and Brennan Johnson (£15-18m) and loan them back for the the remainder of the season. Also like us to sign Tarkowski on a pre-contract agreement for the summer. Job done for January 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was above our level when the rumours started about him potentially being linked with Leicester Don't agree he was above our level. When we were linked, we were challenging for a CL spot. And remember we got Castagne from Atalanta as well so we're an attractive club for good players in Serie A. It was the failure to make CL combined with his excellent performances in the Euros that meant he became out of reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
