Would have been laughable in the championship, that. What happened to signing players better than we have already, are we seriously satisfied with what we have? Except he's not at Granada. He's playing for Udinese, mid-table in Serie A. Ok, it's hardly still amazing, but they're a decent enough side.

Not sure why I waded in anyway, I know sweet FA about his chap.
smr Posted 31 January 2017 Posted 31 January 2017 He looks good, very tall, looks strong and quite lean. Quicker than Huth and Morgan and he looks like he's got a bit more dexterity... looks more like a footballer than Morgan and Huth do. I reckon he'll be a great addition, hopefully he's very good for us and can then sign permanently. It'd be interesting to see whether Claudio drops Huth or Morgan for him, unless he goes 3-5-2 or something.
STUHILL Posted 31 January 2017 Posted 31 January 2017 So if Wes and Huth get injured or banned, we have Benny and Wague as our CB pairing to help us survive relegation and try to beat Sevilla... Just let that sink in ..Not that Wes and Huth leave me feeling that much better. Deary me.

He has played there every game for Ghana, so he knows the position well enough, and with N'didi and Mendy back, his opportunities in CM will be less. Hopefully he can be like a new signing for us and do a job there.

Very simple. LCFC is not willing to pay , what better players would cost. Therefore players, who would really improve our team, are joining other clubs. End of story.
EnderbyFox Posted 31 January 2017 Posted 31 January 2017 I hope we are holding off on announcing this chap as we are trying to get other deals through simultaneously.
Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 31 January 2017 Posted 31 January 2017 20th wealthiest club aren't we? At the moment anyway, we shouldn't be searching for bargains at a jumble sale.

Wealthy clubs should only pay massive amounts of money for every new signing. If he's better than what we currently have (and I know nothing about him so can't say if he is or isn't) nobody will care less what sort of a deal we signed him on.
foxes21 Posted 31 January 2017 Posted 31 January 2017 apparently he's perfectly suited for the premier league my source is some guy in the comments section on youtube

Even tho a large portion of this current side played other formations a couple years back and seemed fine
mozartfox Posted 31 January 2017 Posted 31 January 2017 Not enough hoof and hope for me. Bad signing as he will confuse our front line if he hits balls out of defence along the ground for them to run on to.
dbtcity Posted 31 January 2017 Posted 31 January 2017 The outrage on here over a loan signing of a player nobody has seen play , low risk who could turn out to be a gem that we'll make a permanent transfer in the summer.... if not and he is awful we just stick him back on the plane to Granada
Long Eaton Fox Posted 31 January 2017 Posted 31 January 2017 I seem to remember signing an overlooked defender from a mid table team and he worked out ok. Huth if you recall. Hughes wanted ball playing centre backs so Huth was surplus. Maybe we should give this guy a chance.

Low risk too, as you rightly stated
