Players who might improve us

Answer my question though, how many of our rivals would have him over their current choice??

What's he got going for him then exactly?? other than being good with his feet and throwing a ball out of the box quickly?


1st choice for Barca, highly capped and decorated international, recently rated top 5 in the world I believe. I understand you don't rate him and that's your prerogative, but c'mon, he has nothing going for him is frankly pathetic.

There is no question to answer as it's hypothetical and whatever my response, it would be meaningless.

Who would you want in goals for us then?

But he's in the premier league now, a totally different kettle of fish. Okay maybe saying nothing going for him is abit far but at the end of the day, apart from his footwork, he's not exactly Neaur is he? Might as well just stick yaya in goal if we want a good passer in net. His shottstopping abilities aren't even on par with the man who bravo replaced. He seems to flap like fuck in a crowded penalty area and clearly doesn't communicate well with the pourus defence. That was one thing joe did well was being very vocal, that's just one of the things you want in a good keeper.

Who would I have? I'd personally have someone like someone like ter Stegen but Barca wouldn't give away their best keeper would they? Remember they have their number 2 to us. No but Someone like Lloris would be my pick which isn't exactly an impossibility with him going through the houses every season at spuds. Doubt Pep would have anyone else though so we'll just have stick with what we got for the season!

Of our last two keepers, the one who used to flap like fuck in a crowded area is on loan in Turin. I get it you dont rate Bravo, but he is a much more acomplished keeper than you struggle to give him credit for. Other than shot blocking, I believe he is better than Joe in all other aspec ts of keeping.
 
So I read on another site that Thiago Silva is out of contract in the summer, he's 32 now so will probably be 33 or approaching there by then. I understand he's had some injury problems at PSG, but all i can say from watching him at Milan is when fit (obviously a few years ago) he was up there as one of the best defenders in the world.

Would it be worth a punt if he's on a free? Or should we be aiming for younger, considering he would take up an overseas player place in our quota and we don't know about his fitness?
 
that short black lad for Everton is immense. Plays like Kante but I honestly think he has more to his game than Kante does. Seen him a few times and every single time he's been the best player on the pitch. Had Pogba in his pocket and was half the size of him. Wish we sign him.

Mentioned this guy back in March in the Kante thread and it got shot down because he played for Villa so was automatically not good enough for us. Great buy from Everton, basically Kante but better on the ball and was a 1/4 of the price.
 
Niklas Sule. Physical monster 6'5 & like 15 and half stone, he's good on the ball too. When Kompany is out, our back-line is fairly easy to bully.



Fuck off has he just turned 21, he's an absolute beast! Looks comfortable bringing the ball into the opposition's half too.

I've been meaning to watch a few Hoffenheim games recently; been hearing nothing but good things about Nagelsmann. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this lad.
 
Kasper Schmeichel.

Okay, first off, I haven't heard anything whatsoever to say he's moving anywhere.

But interested in people's opinions.

He's developed into a very, very solid keeper and could likely play in a Pep system.

Leicester's purple patch will end soon to see them never play a champs league game for another 20 years and the team will disband. They also brought in a second number 1 keeper during the summer, so I could see him moving on.

With all of this in mind, would you see him back?

Could he be an answer? Willy's moving on, Joe is gone and we've plenty of football to share around and the way Bravo has bedded in means he'll by no means be the guaranteed 1 come Summer unless he really improves.

So folks, thoughts?
