Souttar joins Sheffield Utd on loan

[coolhandfox]

Another player that gets better without playing.

[Jimmy]

what a huge waste of money this signing has been, gotta feel for him this time last year he probably thought he'd get his chance to nail down a place

[ARTY_FOX]

Good luck to him. 

 

Not too much though if it's the blades 

[kingcarr21]

Smart decision, Proves himself in the Championship to then slot into our defense next season if we are relegated. Hope he does well, Feel like he wasn't given a fair crack

The signing that encapsulates this regime.

 

- Poor tactical fit, isn't really a natural ball-playing defender even though he's not horrendous at it

- Has been overlooked by basically three managers out of three in the space of 18 months

- Was bought for the first one, took out a loan to facilitate this that has later knocked us on the cusp of a points deduction. Said manager should obviously already been sacked by this point

- Big, long contract

- Pretty big transfer fee

 

And yet I'd wish him good luck. None of this is his fault. But a complete joke of a signing.

Another one we can chalk up to Rodgers's total inability to create a defence that could defend set pieces. The answer seemingly being to sign the biggest bloke we can... see Vestergard and Souttar. Despite insisting on a high line and then continually hanging his defenders out to dry. What a joker.

It's a great signing for a promotion chasing team. 

Don't remember him ever being overly bad for us, and his lack of opportunities last season were a surprise even if he wasn't a perfect enzo ball centre back.

£15m paid for him and his game time for us:

 

16 appearances

13 starts

1,179 minutes played

13.1 90s

 

Seemingly couldn’t even get at least an option to buy into the loan deal let alone an obligation

 

Another brilliant Rudkin/Rodgers signing, we fully deserve these PSR problems

To be fair, an option wouldn't benefit us at all.

 

It's not like the loaning club is forced to bid at that price (like Bologna with Kristiansen). We're just forced to accept it, if they do.

 

An obligation would've benefited us however.

[Foxin_Mad]

Hes a much better player the Wout Faes, yet hes still here because he can pass it. Hes honestly one of the worst defenders ive ever seen. 

[JimJams]

Hopefully he's an integral part of a successful promotion campaign so we can sell him for £40mill...

 

Ok 20....

 

 

10???

[MPH]

Souttar curse has struck, Sheffield United have been deducted 2 points.

Are you not aware there's a board above him? He won't have seen the finances nor the scouting report!

He's really not and no evidence to suggest. A Stoke friend who's watched souttar alot more than we have told me he's quite good in a 5 sweeping up but horrific in a 4. Countless managers haven't played him now and thst says something

And should have scored away at Southampton when we lost 1-0 with a free header.

[mozartfox]

On the bench tonight. Hopefully taken the LCFC cushion with him.
