Fightforever Posted 19 May 2018 Share Posted 19 May 2018 If his agent wants 4 million then evans will want 5 million his relegation clause is 3 million and his wages will be north of a 100k a week. Just go for mawson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StriderHiryu Posted 19 May 2018 Share Posted 19 May 2018 Kind of surprised we are in for him given his age, but he’s a proven quality centre back. Whilst I can see the appeal of having two young English centre backs and forming a long lasting partnership, having a quality centre half with European and Premier League experience for less than 10m is a great deal. I guess this means we don’t sign Dragovic which is baffling to me; he was good every time he played for us, younger and reasonably priced. Or perhaps we are signing two CBs this transfer window?

Gerard Posted 19 May 2018 Share Posted 19 May 2018 I read the West Brom forum about him. They weren't over excited about signing a Man utd "reject" but they thought he was the best player at the club for his first two years. Last year they thought he was a shitehawk for throwing his rattle out the pram for not getting his move to Man City. No question about his quality though. This is the thread from when he first started playing for them. http://westbrom.com/forum/index.php?topic=17079.175 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Albrignton fits into to what Puel wants from his wingers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamlcfcbevo85 Posted 19 May 2018 Share Posted 19 May 2018 Just not excited about Johnny Evans. His age is agaisnt him and had a shocking season just gone. Surely we should go for either gibson or mawson. Then we would have a young but experienced back line to build from. Just can't see Evans being the answer to our problems. And is he that much better than big we Morgan would love to see a comparison because I actually think we is a better defender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes is neither. 2015 Morgan is a different matter, but if he declines as rapidly next season as he has this, then we'll have a pub player on our hands. Puel looks like he is trying to step away from the back 4 that allow pressure on them, and more towards a defense that can hold the ball and build from the back. For me, Evans is the best option, even if he is the oldest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But defensive wisee big wes is better The number of goals conceded from corners and set pieces need to be addressed - Wes is great with his diving in and putting his body on the line with last ditch tackles but what is required is a properly organised defensive line and I believe that Evans would help with that 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as I keep banging on about... bring in a quality no.10 and another quality wide forward to fill the Mahrez and Okazaki voids, and we’ll be ok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Touché We’ll address the defensive issues with the signing of Pereira & Evans. Beyond that I think we’ll replace Mahrez with Roberts and hopefully as you say a class no10 and we are absolutely in business for top 6. Positive about Mahrez going to Man City is that on last season they can’t improve much, they’ll be winning the league again regardless. If we sold him to a shithouse like Arsenal they might actually prevent us from taking 6th, as a loose example. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
