While he loves doing that, he's far more than just a 6'4 monster. He's not giving Usain Bolt a run for his money anytime soon, but Szalai can hold his own against most forwards in a race and isn't scared of anyone one-on-one. With that agility, Szalai likes to vary the way he defends. He's happy to push up high and bank on his recovery pace but is also smart enough to know when he needs to sit back and wait for the trouble to come to him.” 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szalai also speaks really good English so communicating with his teammates shouldn’t be an issue. Quite like the idea of signing an absolute shithouse who can also play out from the back.

Chrysalis Posted 28 July 2022 Share Posted 28 July 2022 I think its disappointing we havent been able to get rid of players we dont want (at this time). Lack of signings might be ok, gives potentially chances for youth players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lack of signings might be ok, gives potentially chances for youth players. Does it? I thought the problem is that we have too many players to register in the squad. Given that we have hardly seen any development players in pre-season it doesn't look like they are in Brendan's plans at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_up_north Posted 28 July 2022 Share Posted 28 July 2022 Youth players aren't subject to the same rules. Ergo, the likes of Nelson can get a run out in place of Vestergaard - which would be my preferred option anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rorab Posted 28 July 2022 Share Posted 28 July 2022 I don't think we should be panicking, I do think we still have the core of a squad good enough to compete towards the European places. I'd be a lot more satisfied though if I actually believed Rodgers was gonna use the limited summer transfers as a reason to give more chances to the likes of the best youngsters coming through.

We have also been linked again with Callum Hudson-Odoi. joel piroe is still available as well. I wouldn’t be unhappy with that. Same mould as CDK I also know it’s a little fm, but Samuel umtiti was linked once upon a time. A loan with an option could be worth a punt. He may have not played much in recent times but the risk isn’t much if we have an option. Barca are willing to do anything to get people out the door so we could possibly get a great deal with us only paying 40% of his wages or something daft. Similar to villa with PC. If rennes could afford it then we could and the difference between us and them, is that we wouldn’t be signing him to be our main cb, so we can be patient with his fitness Edited 30 July 2022 by Lambert09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

escape2victory Posted 30 July 2022 Share Posted 30 July 2022 I’ve come round now to the idea of keeping our powder dry this summer, provided we don’t lose anyone, maybe bringing in a winger on loan towards the end of the window as back up to Barnes. Lets be honest, a midfield 3 of Ndidi, Tielemans and KDH with Mendy, Praet and Soumare as back up, is better than anything outside the top 6 by far. Next summer we can really go mental with Perez, Mendy, Choudhury, Bertrand, Amartey, Schmeichel all coming off the wage bill, can we get Soyuncu and Tielemans on new contracts ? If not, whilst annoying not to get a fee, getting rid of their wages will give us more wriggle room. Obviously tie down Maddison to a new deal, offer Vardy and Evans extensions. Cash in on Fofana unfortunately for £80m and sell ‘replaceable’ assets like Iheanacho, Castagne, Ward/Iversen, and all of a sudden next summer we have a big transfer kitty and plenty of wage wriggle room, although by following that plan we will need 7-8 players 😭 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
