Kyle Walker

[dadnlad]

just buy spurs it would be cheaper in long run makes me laugh oh 50 mill 25 mill 250 mill

we was buying Monaco not long back

Brain dead player, makes enough terrible mistakes to fit right in with our current defence, but is helped out by his speed and Pochetino's system. Spending big money on him would be a huge mistake. I know we need a RB, badly, but Walker isn't the answer, especially considering how much he'd cost

Also I seem to recall him saying he didn't like playing under AVB because Villas Boas gave a lot of instructions, whereas Sherwood just told him to go out there and play his game. Not exactly the sort of mentality that would go well with Pep

I couldn't agree more mate TBH , the team lacks a backbone , Peps said it himself - you need a strong element of homegrown / English players in the side , he had it at Barca and he had it at Bayern , United spent decades hoovering up the best English talent - it's our turn before they get a foothold and do it again.

It's much easier to have a backbone of German or Spanish players and still compete for the Champions League.

True,most english players are crap

As with stupid buy a couple of German full backs, no nonsense u25 with pace. Let Pep school them.

My apologies Mr G doesn't teach tackling.

 

[Andy Morrisons jock strap]

I'd rather us overpay for hardworking English technical talent that will give the dressing room a backbone than fly by night mard arses who have nothing but technical ability and know nothing of what makes the PL level

I'd throw £100m on the table for Ali and see what Levy makes of that- because if we don't then United or Chelsea will do just that either this season or the next.

Hes been consistantly peforming at a high level now for the past 4 years or so and crucially knows the league and can handle the pace and intensity which is vital for the modern FB role, i think weather the fee is 20m or 50m thats irelevent as he's worth whatever anyone is willing to pay, but he's a massive upgrade on our current right backs

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Just like sterling and stones, walker is stupidly underrated on here.

How old is walker 27/28 ish ? up to 50m to have the same problem in 2 yrs when he too hits 30 and slows up,time we brought younger fullbacks who can mature together and stay a long time

I'm on board with this way of thinking also, never been a fan. That being said, Harry Kane sounds as thick as two short planks and I'd have him up front in a heartbeat ;)
