Will be a Deeney situation and a waste of our time. English clubs are so rich now, they can ask crazy money for their players. Can see them demanding 30million or something equally ridiculous. Buying from other top European Leagues will be the only option soon. He would be a great addition though but just can't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon789us Posted 16 September 2016 Share Posted 16 September 2016 Thinking we need 3 players in Jan cm nzonzi or silva rb to cover/replace Simo and poss another CB not entirely convinced with Hernandez looks shaky at times but he may come good given a run of games is benni still with us by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpjfox Posted 16 September 2016 Share Posted 16 September 2016 young right back and centre back to act as back-up and groomed to eventually suceed Wes or Huth or Simpson and a central midfielder to compliment what we have, act as back up or to start if we ever play 3 in centre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 16 September 2016 Share Posted 16 September 2016 I can't get my head around this Silva link. I read someone say the basis of him coming here in January would be CL football... would he not be cup tied? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely we wouldn't buy him to be a backup to Drinky? Honestly, what am I missing here? your meds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clever Fox Posted 16 September 2016 Share Posted 16 September 2016 We definitely need a Midfielder, But what I can't understand is we bought Mendy to replace Kante alongside DD. We also have Amartey now showing real promise in the position and King. So my question is why do we need another defensive Midfielder in Silva That will be 5 players for 2 places. I'd prefer if we concentrated our search for an Attacking Midfielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's a waiting game really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st albans fox Posted 16 September 2016 Share Posted 16 September 2016 sporting will drop into the Europa league. will they want him to stay for that. as far as where he would play for us? too many are assuming that the way we play now is the way we will continue to play. I am certain that Claudio wants to change this over the next 18 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think eventually he'll want some more creativity and if that's the case Silva would be a fantastic addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighPeakFox Posted 17 September 2016 Share Posted 17 September 2016 I suppose there is also the small possibility that they are guarding against Drinkwater being poached too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth exploring options but don't want too many on the bench grumbling. I would like to see a younger CB, and RB but am otherwise happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not right now because Huth and Morgan have more than earned their places, but we'll need one in medium- to long-term. It would be interesting to see how Hernandez fares or if he only really gets his chance at RB. Van Dijk at Southampton would be a good prospect I think. The English club premium would apply, though.

Harry96 Posted 17 September 2016 Share Posted 17 September 2016 Really want us to sign Leandro parades, the guy is a class act. And would be able to play in the champions league with Roma not qualifying. However sadly think he'll move to a better team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4DD0gg Posted 17 September 2016 Share Posted 17 September 2016 Should have bought silva when we had the chance. The additional fee could have been offset with a higher finish placing cos I douby we will hit top 10 let alone top 6 with midfield we currently have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluearmyfox28 Posted 18 September 2016 Share Posted 18 September 2016 Silva 100% for me to add to the creativity in the middle of the park. Competition at right back for me is poor. I think we definitely need a right back but can't think of anyone who's realstic? then a young centre back as I think this year will be the last for Was. I was impressed with Michael Keane yesterday especially in that first half, looked more than capable & has years ahead of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gw_leics772 Posted 18 September 2016 Share Posted 18 September 2016 Did we settle on whether silva can play for us in CL knockout if Sporting get knocked out (or go into Europa League) It looks to me like there is no way he can play for us having already played for Sporting in CL this season, but it looks bloody confusing and i think people either gave up, or my point is so obvious nobody mentioned it again?, (or it is obvious he can play for us, and i missed it completely) Can someone confirm please, preferably a few saying the same thing, if people disagree i'll just be even more confused ;o) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the summer transfer window I was hoping we'd go for Karsdorp from Feyenoord, his performance vs United solidified that opinion for me. Corchia from Lille is another RB I think would be a good fit.
