Lavia might just look good in a shit southampton side and yes i was at southampton when they played all ten of them in midfieldNo, you buy a top quality young DMF, maybe even bring Lavia back.
He looks good, Chelsea clearly though so and so do many other clubs, he's done incredibly well down there.Lavia might just look good in a shit southampton side and yes i was at southampton when they played all ten of them in midfield
ive been linked with chelsea and im 62 ;)He looks good, Chelsea clearly though so and so do many other clubs, he's done incredibly well down there.
age or price? ;)ive been linked with chelsea and im 62 ;)
Looks like some only need 10 minsHave we not learned to give players time?
You don't get top quality young players for less than £40m these days.No, you buy a top quality young DMF, maybe even bring Lavia back.
Millimetres!age or price? ;)
Well if we could get our money back on Phillips, for me he goes.You don't get top quality young players for less than £40m these days.
The buyback clause for Lavia is reportedly £50m.
So again, I ask, what's your alternative to keeping Phillips?
He's been injured.No clue how good/bad/mediocre Philips is in our side - the lad hasn't had a sniff of playing time. I'd like to see him play more for our side for sure - as I think he might be great.
Yup - looking forward to him getting playing time.He's been injured.
true. good analysis.Lavia isn't the answer...at least not yet. We should have kept him in my opinion, but we'd still be saying he's miles off Rodri. His job for Southampton is about winning the ball back, it's not about running the game and always being in space to get the ball. Rodri was shite and up for sale on Bluemoon for his first 18 months let's remember.
Right but what do we do if we sell Phillips? Spend £40m on another back-up DM?
Jesus, he's only played a handful of minutes , a bit harsh !Arguably the biggest flop signing in Premier League from summer 2022
I do know that in the few appearances since his injury we have looked shaky as hell when he gas replaced Rodri. I wouldn’t like to see him start any game that we need to win.
