Gerard Posted 8 August 2019 Share Posted 8 August 2019 1 hour ago, Countryfox said:  This is mid table talk.  I doesn't matter what we 'blow' on them ...  as a statement and to realistically show we are going for it we should have replaced with the best we can get.  If we wanted (say) Tarkowski we should factor his price into the Maguire fee and got him ... they want 50m we want a net of 40m, we sell him for 90m ... they want 60m we sell for 100m ... or no deal !  It's just business !  I promise I won't mention this again but it does my head in ...  we are currently much much weaker in that area ! ..   Tarkowski is unlikely to be the difference of us finishing top six or not.  I'm more than happy to go with Soyuncu and Benkovic putting pressure on for a first team spot and Morgan if there is a crisis.  It's not like Soyuncu is a highly rated 17yo from the academy. We can assess the situation in January if the players we have aren't up to scratch.   3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can assess the situation in January if the players we have aren't up to scratch.   Spot on. I am hoping that this time next year, we have seen Soyuncu and Benkovic form a formidable partnership. It is unlikely should that happen, that either would be allowed to leave next year. Plenty of reasons to be positive I feel. Can see the reason for another CB, numbers/backup, etc - but we must utilise high potential players to fullfil their potential, else they are just a waste of money. Also, as much as a fancy dan winger might seem a good idea, it depends if they fit into the tactical plans - I don't believe they would 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giggsy77 Posted 8 August 2019 Share Posted 8 August 2019 I think this just goes to show that no one really has an idea of what is happening. Looks like it’s just Praet, which is hardly a storm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingfox Posted 8 August 2019 Share Posted 8 August 2019 Yet again those saying we'll be just fine with Soyuncu and Benkovic, where's the evidence to back this up?  Fail to get a CB then we're going into the season relying on two inexperienced CB's, one of which has zero Premier League experience and probably isn't fully fit yet, the other played about six Premier League games last season and he was crap in about half of them. The other week Soyuncu got bullied by a League 2 striker, watching his performance in that game especially didn't really fill me with confidence.  The performances of Soyuncu and Benkovic will determine whether we fight for top six or not, I hope to god they turn into two defensive beasts, if not then I expect to see us languishing mid table.

You could also argue, where is the evidence they won't? Both came extremely highly rated. Benkovic was getting rave reviews for Celtic and Soyuncu has done well when played apart from the odd moment that even Evans and Maguire had last season.  Again, Maguire really wasn't the great last season, so they really aren't as big shoes to fill as some think.  I would have liked another CB on loan to play it safe, but sometimes we just have to back our talented young players. It certainly hasn't done us any harm recently with the likes of Chilwell, Barnes, Maddison and Choudary! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more worried about the lack of depth in attack... Don't have enough game changers on the bench.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav_LCFC14 Posted 8 August 2019 Share Posted 8 August 2019 I still think we're going to regret not going after a new No.9, one injury to Vardy which could side line him for a while leaves us with Nacho and Slim. Both are no where near the reliability as Vardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
