Blodge Posted 19 May 2017 Share Posted 19 May 2017 If Huth and Morgan perform as they did in our resurgence, then I still think I'd start at least one of them next season. Having said that, we are desperate for reinforcements, proven Premier League centre backs that are comfortable on the ball. Although he has only one season of Premier League football under his belt, I'd love to see Maguire come, he looks comfortable on the ball and has shown he can adapt to RB so gives Simpson some much needed competition. I though Jorgenson had a great game for Copenhagen, and is a big, imposing, physical defender that would definitely add some much needed height and aerial presence to the team. Nastasic is another that I'd welcome to the KP. Underrated at City and released too early. He's still young, and without Schalke having CL football this season (I believe), he could be tempted if we showed the ambition. Even though Mbodji apparently had a very good game against United, they can't score for shit this year, and he is still unproven. And we can't have another AFCON player on our books, we'll lose too many players if we're not careful. A dream signing would be someone like Ake, had a great season at Bournemouth but it is clearly rated at Chelsea so would need a big bid to get him in, so it is unlikely we'll get him. Two new CBs are probably needed, with Wasyl going, and Amartey still not convincing at CB. The two I'd go for is Maguire and Jorgenson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chocolate Teapot Posted 19 May 2017 Share Posted 19 May 2017 Thought occured to me last night that Shakey seems to like 3-4-1-2, so reckon we could see at least 2 CB's. Benny, Morgan and Huth would all remain, and we could see anyone of Maguire, Gibson, Acerbi, Mboji. Heard a few whispers about Shawcross too.

lnkstern Posted 19 May 2017 Author Share Posted 19 May 2017 I think that Morgan and Huth are going to be increasingly unreliable due to age, wear, and injuries (hell, Morgan played almost two years round the calendar between Jamaica and Leicester). So, any new CB will get substantial playing time, either through injury or resting the current CBs. I would love to get Shawcross! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Clender Posted 19 May 2017 Share Posted 19 May 2017 Shawcross would be perfect for us, especially for when we play Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawcross is a shout except he turns 30 beginning of October. Wold rather we got players with more than a couple of seasons left in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
les-tah Posted 20 May 2017 Share Posted 20 May 2017 Cannot rely on Huth and Morgan.. Older and more injury prone now as the signs are showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankieADZ Posted 20 May 2017 Share Posted 20 May 2017 i think we'll go back in for Kara Mbodji and make a bid for Maguire both would be decent additions tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spicer Posted 20 May 2017 Share Posted 20 May 2017 For once I'd like to see Amartey play his actual position. But I'd take, Ake and Maguire happily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozartfox Posted 20 May 2017 Share Posted 20 May 2017 Jack Charlton would be a better option than Shawcross.. No better than what we have already- IMHO.. Someone younger than can pass out instead of hoofing please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
