Would like him if we go down though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will however get us money in whereas Ward won't get touched by other clubs. Kel will be in final year of contract, and unless we play two up top, I don't see us being a firm starter. Soumare and Albrighton solely stay because squad turnover will already be so high, its worth keeping them another year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said before his age is probably the sticking point, but with a year left if we can get him for a decent fee I wouldn't be against it as a squad option.

Surely of all the traits you’d want from your goalie, kicking is the one that can be developed most easily through coaching? I’m not sure you could as easily do that with the actual reactions needs for shot stopping. Schmeichel was awful at kicking from the day he arrived until the day he left. It’s a failure with the coaching. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as he's a far better goalkeeper to Ward. So I'd bring someone new in and then you have a choice of bringing 5-10m in for Iversen or letting Ward go for pretty much nothing and I'd take the money choice on that one.

Hard to say for definite yet. I am from that view that I don’t need my goalkeeper doing cruff turns etc and to focus on keeping the ball out of the net. That said, the ball being booted straight out of play isn’t great. I suppose I do think that he could be coached into being good enough. As I said, Schmeichel wasn’t very good but had many other attributes. Also depends what league we are in. I have said on other threads but if we go down, I would not piss around trying to replace Iverson when we have so much to do and he’s already a very very good Championship goalie. Give him number 1 for the season, and see how he does. If we stay up tomorrow, then maybe that changes! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the club had only bought a top drawer keeper in January, I’ve no doubt we would be safe already. It’s the one position you can’t mess around with.

BenTayfour Posted 27 May 2023 Share Posted 27 May 2023 (edited) Badredine Bouanani Algerian left footed right winger, really lacking in game time at Nice a Loan with option to buy would be great, shown alot of improvement lately his major problem is he lacks the goal scoring intent he likes to assist the ball rather than go for a goal, but his delivey is on point nevertheless. anyways there is an abundance of North african talent nowadays but their main issue is discipline especially the attacking players, same can be said to West Africans most notably (Senegal, Nigeria, Ivory Coast) even Mali lately are looking good.

Lambert09 Posted 28 May 2023 Share Posted 28 May 2023 (edited) At this point, I just want to make sure we keep iheanacho! Still think we shouldn’t even consider letting barnes go for less than 50. A promotion is worth more than that. Don’t understand the fans happy to take 30… we’d have to spend 10 of that on a replacement. Squeeze every penny for maddison, get what we can fro the fringe players and try to build around those 2 if we can. nacho vardy barnes kdh Thomas/ Vk. faes. souttar. ricardo iversen That’s a strong core to build off of. having to replace 2 wingers with our track record is terrifying.

An Sionnach Posted 28 May 2023 Share Posted 28 May 2023 Barnes and Maddison will not accept championship football at this point in their careers so we sell for for 80 million or so. You can pick up six or seven players for that. Braybrooke will come straight into the squad , Hamza may return and Justin will be fit. I would offer Amartey a couple of years as well. Castagne and Praet are done here Jonny should retire now so a new captain will be needed. Soumaré will get offers at 20 million or so. Our real need is a much stronger midfield physically. The position of Ndidi has to be sorted quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
