Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 2 July 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 2 July 2019 1 hour ago, Nicolo Barella said: That's not what I meant - Soyuncu, Benkovic, Evans all came in last season, we don't need to replace Maguire Oh, I wholeheartedly agree that if Maguire goes we should give Benkovic and Soyuncu a chance otherwise what was the point in signing them? We 100% bought them to safeguard Maguire going on deadline day last year. We wanted Soyuncu anyway but when we became aware, somewhat surprisingly that Benkovic was available for only £13m we saw it too good an opportunity to miss. I don't see what's changed a year on. He had a good season at Celtic, his injury problems were no worse than the previous season where we didn't deem it cause to not sign him and likewise Soyuncu hasn't done much wrong when we bothered giving him a chance. His supposed errors were no more concerning that mistakes Maguire still makes for us. Evans is Evans and one of the shrewdest buys we've made since Huth. If we sell Maguire I'd go all in on 2 new wingers and watch our balls grow. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 2 July 2019 Share Posted 2 July 2019 1 hour ago, ttfn said: I would rather we take our chances on Soyuncu and/or Benkovic than spend £30 million on Dunk or Lascelles. Big Wes as 4th choice, Amartey as cover for emergencies. I’m really not sure we need another centre back, we’ve got far more pressing areas to cover. Completely agree. I'd not bother unless you could get an Ake or someone for a decent fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HybridFox Posted 2 July 2019 Share Posted 2 July 2019 It could be a blessing in disguise if it accelerates Benkovic into the starting XI. Genuinely think he can develop into a world class defender 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we need more goals and that will require 1 winger minimum that is better than all we have currently.

Popular Post Jon the Hat Posted 2 July 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 2 July 2019 I think it is worth considering that if we are appealing to the likes of Tielemans and other younger player to come to us, that they see we are not a club who would block a future move to a truly big club for the right money. Being seen as hard to move on from won't help us here, so if Harry is set on a move I think he should probably be allowed to go. Ideally Man City come in too. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's that fine line between not just selling off our players and therefore hindering progression/ambition but also deterring the hottest prospects joining in the first place.

They were in for De Ligt (who wasn't?), but he's chosen Juventus. They don't need Maguire but the De Ligt bid suggests they still feel they want more options in the CB position.

UPinCarolina Posted 2 July 2019 Share Posted 2 July 2019 As conflicted as I'll feel watching Harry strut out of the door, I feel better knowing that there are multiple clubs in the running who are no doubt offering massive sums of money. This undoubtedly means that we'll be bringing in some top talent at another position of greater need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
