Jesus Navas

Would be OK with this if we get Sterling in , Marcos Lopes can come in and take the backup option

 

[Hungarian blue]

I'd rather keep Navas than Nasri as a squad option, not that he is the better overall player, but he offers something others don't.

Sounds like this is progressing based on KDB & Sterling coming in, both can play wide as can Lopes, so we'd be well covered. Great work rate but his decision making with his final ball was at times awful, think he also struggled when Negredo went off the boil

 

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

Good.
We often joke on here when discussing a player " does he track back" well this lad is the best I've seen at it. Works harder than most if not all the rest of the players.

I agree.....for the price we paid, I think we got excellent value and as you have rightly said....works hard for the team! if rumours are true that we selling him back to Spain, we must have a replacement already lined up....I'm guessing someone like Sterling(if signed) could slot into his position if Navas heads back to Sevilla?

Be careful what some of you wish for. Sterling is much more frustrated to watch and got half the football brain Navas has imo.

But is 20 years old and this season has been playing for a club he didnt want to be at! Sterling is explosive and when he finds consistency will demolish fullbacks for fun.

 

[Blue Smarties]

This.

He's hard working and incredibly fast.

If he moves on we lose a huge counter attacking option.

If hard working and incredibly fast are his too main assets then let's get Walcott or Lennon in and give them a couple of Red Bull's pre-game.

 

[Iamthemusicman]

If it means he doesn't take our corners then I'm all for it.

Jokes aside he's a decent player and seems like a nice bloke but we could do and need better.

 

[york away to this!]

He has very piercing eyes...so Mrs This! tells me.

 

[Manchester33]

Im sure he got the joint most assists for us last season with Aguero... not bad for someone with a terrible final ball!

If he goes we should get at least £15m for him so would take a big chunk of the money will spend on Sterling if he comes.
