The loans only until the end of the season. Should we go for him in the summer, he's still class It's not a loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sankey93 Posted 6 March 2022 Share Posted 6 March 2022 Boubacar Kamara contract is up this summer and we should be all over him. Hamza and mendy could potentially be leaving and he also covers CB! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVFox Posted 6 March 2022 Share Posted 6 March 2022 John Brooks is leaving Wolfsburg on a free in the summer. 6ft 4 29 yo American international centre back, very dominant in the air, good on the ball, not quick but not a snail like Vestegaard. If he’s willing to accept not being the 1st choice centre back he’d make a really good option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like Niakhaté at Mainz who only has a year left on his contract come the summer. He's their captain, left footed and brilliant at set pieces attacking and defending.

LVFox Posted 6 March 2022 Share Posted 6 March 2022 Yeah Niakhate is a nice shout, a nicer long term target than Brooks. If we could guarantee 20 games a season from Jonny Evans it would be great but he seems done for really so an experienced head on a cheap deal would be nice.

True, but it's only a 6 month contract. So he will be up for grabs in the summer. Edited 6 March 2022 by coolhandfox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Sionnach Posted 6 March 2022 Share Posted 6 March 2022 The priority is to sign no more speculative punts, no more duds and be very careful about so called prospects. The amount of expensive bench fodder we have signed in the last few years is becoming ridiculous. The core of of our team is becoming Championship winning veterans and academy graduates. Our recent successes have been few and far between. I would sooner we sign one carefully researched and expensive sure thing like Fofana than half a dozen based on hope.

Unproven players are still our best recruitment type but if those selecting them are no longer experts then it's a very precarious situation. I'd single handedly rebuild this club for us. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So was Vardy, for that matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lacked pace but was very good on the ball and I felt it would only take 6 months before Man. United would be making a bid for him. He has the ability to take the ball on the half turn, could beat a man and had the ingenuity to create chances for others, very much a no brainer, purchase wise!!! Now Vardy was a punt, £1m for a non league player who other teams had watched but did not commit to. In the same mould you would then say Mahrez was a punt, with his price tag, and coming from the second tier in France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grebfromgrebland Posted 8 March 2022 Share Posted 8 March 2022 JJ was never a punt. We got him for a bargain price and he was destined to be very good. His injury set him back massively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertfox2 Posted 8 March 2022 Share Posted 8 March 2022 1 hour ago, indierich06 said: Dean Henderson looking to leave United apparently - would anyone take him here? Definitely. Kasper's contract expires next summer when he will be 36 and turning 37 a few months after so giving him another contract doesn't make much sense. Henderson is 24 and could be our Keeper for as long as Kasper has been. It will be sad to see Kasper leave, as it was Morgan, but it's going to happen so we have to plan for the future now and if we could get some money for him in the summer even better. Henderson is a great keeper when he gets a run of games and is number 1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is dean Henderson actually that good? Or is he just English and plays for a Manchester United? I thought he was okay at sheff utd but nothing special. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
