It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

any right back for me would be better than walker
Even one who can attack, cross a ball but can’t defend to save his life
At least we would gain something going forward

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Even through I’m not convinced on Frimpong, I am heartened that right back seems to be the position we’re getting players linked with.

I remember talksport calling this Peps next evolution when we signed Kova, Nunes, Doku last year. He’s moved away from technical and more towards players who drive with the ball.

The issue we have is there is no space to drive into with a low block and they lack that cutting edge pass in gaps nobody else sees.

With our style of play we definitely need technical flair back in that midfield.

Yeah and this might be one of the very few ones Pep has got wrong - that's no slight on him, just a misstep. We need the technicians to release the speedsters

apart from frimpong haven't seen any credible rumours of other options tbh, seems like he's the main target to replace walker

Kimmich’s name has been bandied about too.

 

[Tico Warrior]

No, just no. I really think I need a break from this thread as some of the suggestions are beyond ludicrous.

You need to give us your own suggestions. We are all in this together and you need to pull your weight.

same old strategy from him to get a new contract planting rumours, plus again haven't read any reliable sources linking us with him this season. also don't wan't him at all, another short-term option, we need a fresh blood for rebuild

Taylor Harwood-Bellis, easy to do if that release clause exists. Far better player than when he left due the experience he's gained.
Ederson from Atalanta. Strength, pace and a position we desperately need to fill. Good age.
Bruno Guimaraes, same as Ederson above.
Tyler Dibling is a quality player.
Right back a problem, possibly Frimpong.
Certainly not the likes of Trippier, Ruben Neves and Kimmich.
Two, maybe three, minimum in January. Bigger hopefully in the summer window. Wirtz if he is as good as people say. Every time I've seen him I've been a little underwhelmed.

Think it is almost decision time, though it might be a free in the summer, if at all.

Someone said if you stand still you go backwards.That’s exactly what we’ve done for the past 3yrs and hence why we find ourselves where we are.
